La Sorga de Vida
The guest house La Sorga De Vida is a charming, authentic and serene manor house dating from the beginning of the 19th century, situated in the heart of Quarante, a pretty languedocian village not far from the Canal Du Midi
Why is la sorga de vida the spring of life?
In fact, it is the house where the midwife of Quarante (Mrs Fuentes) delivered all the children of the village and the surrounding area.
So, our current mayor was born in one of our bedrooms.
Knowing this story, we do our best to offer our clients a warm and friendly welcome and we offer well-being services (guest meals, fitness centre, country walks...).
It is in these charming surroundings that Geneviève and Alain invite you to enjoy their peaceful guesthouse nestling in the magnificent countryside between the sea, the Canal du Midi and the foothills of Haut Languedoc. Surrounded by castles and wineries producing A.O.C St Chinian wines it is the perfect location for an escape to the south west of France.
This area full of history, will offer you a mosaic of landscapes, sites and Cathar monuments to discover.
You will enjoy the charm and comfort of our three bedrooms individually designed to focus on the different themes of the surroundings area. All our bedrooms are equipped with private bathroom/toilet.
By reservation, you can partake of a creatively designed meal made with local products, accompanied by wine from Côteaux de St Chinian.
Vegetables and fruit are carefully sourced from local producers and, depending on the season, we can cook local fish sold by fisherman from Valras plage.
Our accredited butcher provides us with poultry and meat from the Ariège and Averon areas.
For breakfast you will enjoy home-made jams made with seasonal fruits from the fruit trees of Argeliers or from our prolific fig tree, with hot crepes and home-made cakes.
Bed and breakfast La Sorga de Vida is also a centre for well-being where you can relax and enjoy whatever activities “appeal to you”.
