La Maison du pêcheur Occitania · Sigean

The house

A haven of peace by the water

Éco-logis

Tucked away in the Anse de l'Olivier in Sigean, between the African Reserve and the long sandy beaches of the Mediterranean, the Fisherman's House is a haven of peace on the shore of the Bages-Sigean lagoon.

From the terrace you can watch flamingos and wetland birds, fish when the water level allows, and enjoy an aperitif as the sun goes down. A return to the essentials, with today's comforts and high-speed internet.

Canoes are waiting for you on site, bikes are available on request, and the nearby Port Mahon water-sports centre offers kitesurfing, sailing, kayaking and catamarans. Cathar castles, local oysters, Corbières wines and Sigean's markets round off your stay.

The house is ideal for two couples, and pets are welcome. Dine outdoors, or even sleep under the stars.

A house with its feet in the water

La Maison du pêcheur sits on the edge of the Bages-Sigean lagoon, in the anse de l'Olivier, in the heart of the Parc naturel régional de la Narbonnaise en Méditerranée. In front of you, there is nothing but water, reeds and sky. In the morning, flamingos feed in front of the terrace; in the evening, the sun sets over the lagoon.

It is an eco-lodging: water arrives by tank and is shared with care, vegetable peelings go to the vegetable garden compost, and yet the house is connected to fibre broadband. A true return to the essentials, without giving up comfort.

Inside

Designed for two couples or a small family (4 people at most), the house has two bedrooms and a warm living room, with a fireplace for winter evenings.

  • Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, coffee machine and basic groceries (salt, pepper, oil, coffee)
  • Washing machine, hairdryer, iron and ironing board on request
  • Air conditioning and heating included: the house is warm when you arrive
  • 55-inch 4K television with Apple TV and Chromecast, Alexa speaker for music and lighting
  • Fibre internet, ideal for working remotely too
  • Board games, books and first-aid kit

Outside, the real living room

The terrace at the water's edge is where everything happens: breakfast in the sun, an aperitif facing the sunset, dinner outdoors and, on summer nights, sleeping under the stars. The patio gives you shelter when the tramontane blows.

  • Sun loungers, sunbeds, armchairs, parasol and shade sail
  • Barbecue and plancha
  • Pétanque set and beach parasols
  • Private, enclosed 250 m² car park with an automatic gate (room for several cars, even with a trailer)

On the water

Two two-seater canoes and a paddleboard are available free of charge, so you can go and meet the birds of the lagoon. You can fish with a line from the terrace depending on the water level, and our partner fisherman can sell you fish caught that very morning.

Just next door, the Port-Mahon watersports centre offers sailing, kitesurfing, kayaking and catamaran, and a walking loop starts right from the house along the lagoon.

Around the house

  • The first fine sandy beaches, near Port-la-Nouvelle, about a quarter of an hour away by car
  • The Réserve africaine de Sigean, a quarter of an hour away
  • The Sigean markets, on Tuesday and Friday mornings
  • Narbonne and its Halles, Fontfroide Abbey, Gruissan, Bages and Peyriac-de-Mer
  • The Cathar castles, the region's oysters and the wines of the Corbières

Our welcome booklet, available as soon as you book, brings together our favourite places, walks, the weather forecast and a tailor-made programme prepared with AI.

A personal welcome

We welcome you ourselves when you arrive, with cold drinks, often a little local wine, and mineral water. We live next door and are available throughout your stay to recommend a restaurant, a walk or an outing. We speak French, English, Spanish and Catalan.

Good to know

  • Your pets are welcome.
  • The terrace opens directly onto the water, with no railing: young children must be supervised at all times.
  • The house water comes from a filtered tank treated with UV, but it is not drinkable: mineral water is waiting for you.
  • Bed linen and towels: bring your own or ask for our per-bedroom package at least 48 hours before arrival.
  • Arrival between 4 pm and 8 pm, departure before 11 am: we stay flexible whenever possible.

Inhabituel!

Un hébergement vraiment merveilleux, loin du tourisme de masse, dans un endroit absolument calme, avec beaucoup d'espace et d'excellentes installations. Les chambres sont confortables et propres. La cuisine est superbement équipée et la terrasse avec ses nombreux petits coins salons est un rêve. Partout où le regard se pose, on découvre de petits éléments décoratifs méditerranéens, soigneusement suspendus ou disposés dans la maison et sur la terrasse. Notre hôte, Denys, nous a réservé un accueil chaleureux et nous a apporté de la joie presque quotidiennement par de petites attentions et des petites douceurs. L'hébergement comprend un kayak qui peut être mis à l'eau et utilisé directement devant la terrasse. Nous avons vraiment passé un excellent séjour !
Il n'y a pas d'accès peu profond à la mer pour la baignade. Si vous voulez aller dans l'eau, qui se trouve juste en face de la terrasse, vous devez y accéder à l'aide d'une petite échelle. C'est un peu compliqué, mais faisable !

Denys est un hôte très accueillant et bienveillant. Nous avons été très bien reçu dans son petit coin de paradis, isolé au calme les pieds dans l'eau. La maison est très confortable. Il ne manque rien pour se sentir bien. La terrasse est incroyable, très grand, plusieurs coins sont aménagés avec table, canapé, ou lit extérieur. C'est magnifique, un coin de nature, très paisible. Nous avons pu admirer le ciel étoilé, des vols de hérons...

Un cadre magnifique et reposant. La maison est parfaite en terme de place, parfait pour 2 couples sans enfants, ou bien 1 couple avec enfants. Nous avons pu déguster de la dorade directement pêchée le matin pour un prix très raisonnable. Attention pour les personnes comme moi sensible aux moustiques prévoir du répulsif. Je recommande

Détendez-vous et relaxez-vous. Ici seulement !

Emplacement excellent. L'endroit idéal pour déconnecter et se détendre. Denys, un hôte formidable. La terrasse offre un lieu idéal pour observer l'étang et la nature, ou pour dîner au coucher du soleil. La possibilité d'explorer les environs à pied, à vélo, en voiture ou en bateau. Absolument tout.

Ein absolut magischer Ort

Denys hat eine unfassbar schöne Location geschaffen. Von den unterschiedlichsten Sitz- und Liegeflächen auf der wunderschön bepflanzten Terrasse bis hin zur abendlichen Beleuchtung. Der Ort hat eine ganz besondere Magie und schenkt dir Energie. Das Haus hat alles, was man für einen Aufenthalt braucht. Die Sonnenuntergänge mit Blick auf einzelne Flamingos ist ein absolutes Highlight. Denys ist ein wunderbarer Gastgeber und immer erreichbar. Am letzten Abend brachte er uns 2 Flaschen seines eigenen Chardonnays ☺️ wir haben diese Auszeit sehr genossen und können diese Location absolut empfehlen. Wir werden ganz sicher auch nochmal zurückkommen. Vielen Dank!

An excellent location to do as little as you wish or visit local attractions.
The quite and views were exceptional. Good walks for the dog. A place for a very restful stay. Excellent value for the price paid. Netflix on the TV was in multiple languages. Sailing, board sports all within a short walk or 2 minutes in a car.
You need to take moustiques repellent if you wish to sit outside at night. Being by the water it is to be expected.

Nous remercions chaleureusement Denys pour ce merveilleux séjour. C'est un lieu de calme et de détente. Denys a toujours veillé à ce que nous ne manquions de rien et à ce que tout soit en parfait état. La maison est idéalement située, permettant de se rendre facilement aux plages. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir si l'occasion nous ramène dans les environs de Narbonne. Merci !
