It's also got stylish and dynamic towns such as Montpellier, Sète, Nîmes and Narbonne as well as historic gems such as the Unesco-listed Carcassonne. The Lonely Planet travel guide calls the Languedoc the "Cinderella of the South" and says that it was "once overshadowed by gorgeous Provence and the brash Côte d'Azur. Now she stands as their equal, displaying a discreet charm that her more-visited siblings lost long ago. " More and more property hunters are beginning to be attracted by this discreet charm, whether they are those who are priced out of the Côte d'Azur seeking southern French sunshine or the type of people who prefer the low-key authenticity of this region. Property hunters are also driven by its accessibility (there's a choice of eight major airports within a 2. 5-hour drive) and its affordable property prices. "We have seen a real surge in inquiries for Languedoc over the last 12 months, " Trevor Leggett, chairman of Leggett Immobilier, says. "International buyers spend an average of €180, 000 – compared with €474, 000 in Paca [Provence-AlpesCôte d'Azur] – and it offers exceptional value for money if you're looking for the sun and traditional French culture.
