http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13639
Try the named communes - Montpeyroux, St Saturnin, Pic St Loup, Cabrieres.

The reds are the best but some of the roses and whites are nice too.

Picpoul de Pinet is pretty good with seafood.

The Caves Cooperatives for all these wines are great places to taste and buy.

Near Aniane in the Herault is the Mas de Daumas Gassac - only allowed to be Vin de Pays but really stunning wine.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13639 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11932
The view from the fountain (at the far end of Place de Peyrou) is breath-taking and even amateur photographers can come away with striking snaps of the aqueduct, hills, winding streets below and so on.

The Arceaux area (down the steps from Peyrou) hosts an impressive market on Sundays, with an abundance of fresh, local produce. You're guaranteed some fun and friendly banter, too. There's plenty of choice and it's always bustling without being too crowded. Why not stock up on food at the market then go for a picnic?

Voilà my perfect French Sunday!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11932 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10719
Start in Caen, then head to Montpellier. Stay in small hotels and enjoy regional cuisine and meet lots of people. By riding each day you build a good appetite to appreciate the great food and wine.

You can easily complete the journey in 12 days, have a day in Montpellier before returning home on the excellent European Bike Express.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10719 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2992 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/2992
