 Terms and conditions
 After Collioure was retaken by the French in 1642, design of the town's fortifications fell to Saint-Hillaire. He organised the construction of both Fort Miradou and the Chateau Royal, along with a protective ditch and wall around the town.
However, displeased with Saint-Hillaire's work, Vauban, a Marshall of France and the state's foremost military engineer, erupted, declaring "the fortification is commanded and enfiladed at several points, in one word, [collioure is] a useless fortress".
He proposed Collioure be razed and the population transported to nearby Port-Vendres, which was struggling commercially.
Fortunately, Vauban's plan was never carried out and Collioure survived this early experiment in town planning, and continued to outshine its commercial rivals.
 20 Rue du Soliel is available to rent all year round.
