Home description
Lovely gite in wing of a traditional Ardechoise stone farmhouse, overlooking the Vercours mountains. Set in 25 acres of evergreen oak woodland, surrounded by cherry and apricot orchards and the vineyards and caves of the St Joseph and Hermitage AOC's.
Le Vitrier offers a wonderful environment for couples and families looking for culture, adventure and relaxation. It is separate from the main farmhouse, with private access, parking and a garden bursting with roses, lavender, flowers, fruit trees and herbs.
Both the Ardeche and the Drome departments have a wealth of activities, sights and events to suit all tastes and budgets and the cities of Lyon and Avignon are within easy reach for day outings. Locally the Doux valley offers swimming and fishing and a wealth of hill villages and gastronomic treats to experience.

Further details outdoors: The garden is private and surrounded by cherry and apricot orchards with outside furniture for relaxing and eating and a barbecue area with gas barbecue. Outside space is particularly important to us in this part of the country as most of the year is spent in the garden and fields and I have a special interest as a professional Garden Designer in France and the UK.
