Collioure-Jewel of the vermilion coast
Our holiday house has a shared swimming pool and is for rent in the village of Collioure, southern France. Known as the gem of the Roussillon coast, this small ancient fishing village on the Mediterranean lies at the foot of the Pyrenees Mountains. Situated in the heart of Catalan country, the local culture, folklore, tradition and food of Collioure reflect its proximity to Spain and its closeness to the sea
The four small bays and beaches of Collioure are flanked by a 13th century castle and a medieval church. This most charming and picturesque town full of tradition and history captivated the imagination of painters Matisse and Derain who stayed in Collioure in 1905. It continues to attract artists, some of whom stay in 'ateliers' in the centre of town
Although now a modern seaside resort the town has kept its charm and atmosphere. Collioure is the kind of place you fall in love with and want to come back to again and again to enjoy its uninterrupted sunshine (320 days a year), its unique charm and its breathtaking views
Our holiday home is on the southern edge of Collioure, an easy walk to the centre of town but also just far away from the bustle of the town centre to be a quiet and relaxing spot
