About this place ...

Elne

Mid-sized town in the middle of the Roussillon plain. The historic capital of the region in Roman times. It is home to a famous cloisters and has an authentic old centre with many narrow streets, a good selection of small shops and cafés. It's a busy town with a market 3 days a week, good sports facilites and public transport. 

Although it has its advantages, we would recommend spending some time getting to know it before making any commitments. 

Positives
Considerations

Plenty of local shops and cafés. Busy market. Lively all year round. Authentic and historic.
