The little village of Serres (Aude) 6 km east of Couiza is quite pretty, with a lovely stone hump-backed bridge crossing the little river beside the center.

The village sits on the D613 road, but it's decorated with many colorful flowers and some tall shade trees along the main route. On the river side, the ancient cobblestone-surfaced bridge has wide graceful arches and the banks of the stream are lined with wild flowers.
A high river-bank walkway is wide, grass covered and shaded by a mass of overhanging trees. A truly lovely place to be on a summer day.
There's probably no commerce in this small village, but we stopped for a visit on a Sunday, and just about mid-day to boot, so it's not a fair test.
The village of Serres actually hosts a local theatre (the acting kind, not the movies).
South of Serres the land rises up into forested hills, complete with hiking trails. Along the north side the land is lower and more open, rising gradually past vineyards to distant forests.
