The winter can be cold but still with glorious blue skies. Spring and autumn are lovely times to be here. The beaches of the Mediterranean are only 45 minutes away. Markets include Ales, Sommieres and Uzes with all local specialities: cheese, olive oil, fresh herbs, honey & vegetables. Less than an hour away from the famous Pont du Gard Roman aquaduct and the new Millau Viaduct. The beautiful Roman city of Nimes ( 30 minutes from the gite ) which offers historical interest as well as diverse shopping opportunities, and the Papal grand city of Avignon (an hour and a half away from the gite).

Reviews
![]() 12 Nov 2011 |
The gite was just perfect for our needs,being well-equipped and furnished, with a lovely balcony overlooking the surrounding hills. We were especially pleased that the owners welcomed our dog. We also had the use of a beautiful infinity pool. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners, who live adjacent, and they provided us with plenty of information to make the most of our stay. The only downside we found was the rather uninspiring approach, as it is tucked away down a long lane, behind some other buildings, however, once there it is a delightful little world all of it's own. The location was ideal, as it is only 40 minutes drive to the coast and the Carmargue to the south and 40 minutes into the Cevennes foothills to the north. The nearest shops are less than 10 minutes away, We loved this very diverse region and will certainly return, as there is so much to see and do that we only just scratched the surface! |
