Find a holiday
Mediterranean beaches, lush green landscapes, fascinating places steeped in history and culture. Plus of course, all the vibrancy of modern life and exciting entertainment - all to be enjoyed in the warm sunshine that the south of France is so famous for.

"Atmosphere was great, very relaxed and the location close to the beach was great." Catriona from Ballybrittas
“With loads of pretty vineyards bordering the endless sandy coastline, the Midi is always a great fun place to visit. As a family, you can rent bicycles and go for a tour of them on a sunny day, or you can have a look around the local towns for restaurants. At the parks in the area, you'll find plenty to see and do, and it's always sunny as an extra bonus!"
