Rabouillet is situated between the Corbières and the Pyrenees and only 1hr 15 minutes from the sea.
 At 700 m altitude it benefits from the sunny Mediterranean climate without the suffocating heat which can invade the plain.  Rabouillet is a calm rural village of 90 inhabitants, set on the hill side and south facing,  it has lovely open views over the surrounding countryside, valleys and forest.



Rabouillet: To escape from it all!

For those wishing to completely relax, you can spend the week in the soothing atmosphere of a rural French village.  Enjoy country and forest walks, take the time to chat to the locals or just chill out on the terrace with a good book.  No-one is in a hurry here and the outside world can be completely forgotten for as long as you wish.
However, most people can't resist the treasures found in our region  and a few day trips out are normally felt necessary!
Rural... but not cut off!!


-Butcher and baker vans visit the village during the week
-Butchers, baker, grocers, Post Office, Chemist, Doctor, restaurant,  6km
-Supermarkets on all main roads leading to village; Ille sur Tet, Prades, St Paul de Fenouilledes ( so stocking up is easily done on the way home ).
