Place de la Comedie Montpellier


The whole place is made of stone with the walls over a metre thick in places. The ceilings are also stone with rounded arches as you get in wine caves. We are on the ground floor and share the building with at least two other gites/apartments. Outside there is also a nice big tree for shade. So we call this city living. We can sometimes hear people upstairs if we are outside but in the main all is very quiet indeed.

On Sunday we went into Montpellier to check out centre ville and to get a feel for the place. The centre is highly pedestrianised and looks very people friendly and relaxed. We will check this out further during the week. It sure looks like life is a lot more congested here compared to the Tarn and before that the Vienne. There is also a bigger mix of races here.
