Christmas in Béziers: an immersive illuminated trail just minutes from Les Gîtes de Monte Blanco

In December, Béziers is transformed and offers this year a truly immersive illuminated trail, inspired by the world of mountains and winter.

Along the avenues, visitors discover a ski resort setting: an arch marking the starting point, illuminated cable cars, glowing skiers lining the route, all the way to the arrival area symbolized by a large sparkling Christmas tree and musical illuminated fountains resonating with Christmas carols.

Around the edges of the avenues, young and old alike are immersed in the enchanting world of Santa's elves, with numerous chalets depicting their daily life and the preparation of Christmas gifts.

This magical walk is complemented by the warm atmosphere of the city centre and the Christmas market, offering a friendly and festive winter outing.

✨ A lovely idea for our December guests, just a few minutes from Les Gîtes de Monte Blanco, before returning to the peace and comfort of the estate.

🏡 December at the estate: improvements, nature and a touch of festive spirit

This December, the estate is busy with a series of small and large improvements designed to enhance the comfort of our future guests. Between new outdoor features, the restoration of a historic piece and a soft winter atmosphere, here's a look behind the scenes at Les Gîtes de Monte Blanco.

🌿 A new convivial space around the pétanque court
We have created a brand-new area around the boulodrome: synthetic turf, fresh planting, and—our favourite part—the restoration of an old iron bench discovered during the renovation of Le Pressoir. After decades forgotten on the property, it will soon begin a new life under the shade of the magnificent cedar tree.

✨ Le Pressoir continues to evolve
Although recently completed, the exterior of Le Pressoir is still being refined: painting, lighting, planting… Every detail matters to offer guests a calm, elegant and welcoming setting from the very first moment.

🎄 A gentle, festive winter atmosphere
At the same time, the estate is slowly preparing for Christmas with a soft and discreet decoration, perfect to bring a warm seasonal touch without overdoing it.

Stay tuned next week for a special update dedicated to our Christmas decorations… with photos!
