Maison de Thau
A Fisherman’s House on the Mèze Ramparts

Standing three storeys high in the winding streets of Mèze, this historic home overlooks the oyster beds of the Étang de Thau. It is a place of light and quiet—where the top-floor living area offers views across the lagoon toward Sète, and the harbour is just a short stroll away.

Maison de Thau is a fisherman’s cottage on the ramparts in Mèze, set on the edge of the E'tange de Thau. From the house, it’s a short walk to the harbour, restaurants, the beach and the market square.

The house from the Impasse

Tucked into heart of the old town, the house sits on the ramparts in a quiet impasse. Around it, cobbled streets wind between coloured houses, bougainvillea climbing across the facade.  A small oasis, peaceful and full of character.

​

Set over three floors, the house opens out on the top floor to a light, airy living area with a large windows looking over the sparkling lagoon and vineyards.
