Spacieux gîte construit en pierre avec vue imprenable sur les Cévennes

Belle maison dans un village de rêve. Gillian et Tony sont accueillants et sympathiques et soucieux que tout se passe pour le mieux, prêts à nous dépanner au moindre soucis. La maison est ancienne mais entièrement rénovée, tout est neuf et propre à l'intérieur, salle de bain neuve et pratique pour chaque chambre. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'installation dans le jardin qui permet de profiter d'être à l'extérieur au milieu du paysage tout en étant à l'ombre. La région est très sympa, rivières à proximité pour des baignades et autres villages enchanteurs... Il pourrait y avoir un peu plus d'équipements et d'accessoires dans la cuisine, et de tables ou bureau dans la maison.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely gite. It matched our expectations after reading the description, which was accurate. The gite is full of character, very clean, well maintained and comfortable with contemporary furnishings. We particularly enjoyed eating all our meals (and drinking wine!) on the covered terrace. The location is quiet, with stunning views and many local walks round the village and surrounding countryside. We had a really fun day canoeing on the Ceze river and particularly enjoyed visiting Barjac. The owners, Tony and Gillian were very welcoming and helpful with their local knowledge and tips. Overall it is ideal accommodation for a relaxed and stress free holiday with lots of opportunities to explore the beautiful surrounding area. We will recommend this property to our friends and we will certainly return ourselves!

We had a wonderful stay at this property as part of a longer eurotrip over the summer. Tony and Gillian were very accommodating hosts and on hand as and when we needed but we still felt like we had our own private space to come and go as we pleased. The property looked newly refurbished but was still homely and had a rustic feel. There was plenty of space and all the necessary amenities. Lots of different spaces to enjoy as well including a private balcony, a veranda and a terrace all with stunning views. Lots to explore in the surrounding area, including a communal swimming pool and a river perfect for sunbathing and swimming. Gillian kindly took us for a walk up to the top of the village which provided so more stunning views! Although we didn't do much more physical activity than table tennis (in the courtyard of the property) there was the option to canoe in a nearby area or go for nice bike rides. Only complaint would be that we didn't stay longer - lots more to explore (would highly recommend going to nearby town Barjac) and definitely would want to stay again!

Points positifs : - Belle maison en pierre dans un village de caractère. Fraîche, malgré les chaudes journées d'été. - Bonne documentation concernant les nombreuses choses à faire et à voir mise à disposition par les propriétaires. - à moins de 10 minutes de marche de plusieurs plages le long de la rivière de la Cèze. Points négatifs : - Mauvaise localisation : la maison se situe à Rochegude, dans le département du Gard et non à Rochegude dans le département de la Drôme comme nous le laissait comprendre le description lorsque nous avons réservé. Nous n'avons appris cela que le premier jour de la location. - Pas de piscine commune contrairement à ce qui est dans la description. - Literie moyenne - Electricité à revoir (système d'allumage allers-retours difficilement compréhensibles, 2 coupures électriques en 10 jours...)

We had a lovely welcome from Tony on our arrival and it was fantastic to walk in to the living area on the ground floor of the property, which was lovely and cool after a long, hot journey. The accommodation was spacious and comfortable and we had everything we needed for our 3 week stay. More importantly, the outdoor spaces were wonderful. A table outside the front entrance with a parasol for morning breakfast, a table on the first floor very cool veranda for lunch and a beautiful gazebo on one of the terraces above the property for late afternoon and evening. There was also a small balcony leading off the first floor bedroom where we spent a little time as well. Gillian and Tony were very welcoming and helpful and went over and above the call of duty to ensure we were able to watch at least some of the Summer Olympics! The location is fantastic as a base for exploring the local area and further afield. We fell in love with Barjac, a short drive away, and returned several times. We particularly enjoyed the Friday market and a restaurant called Nature Thé. We also loved Lussan, a beautiful medieval village, and Uzès with its central square and medieval herbal garden. Pont du Gard is a must, as is Avignon. We also went further afield and spent a night in Carcassonne, which although it was very busy was still worth it. We also drove to Florac where the Information Centre for the Cévennes is based. We got lots of information about walks to do in the area and spent a lovely day in Florac, which is a very pretty little town. We enjoyed lunch at Au Pécher Mignon in the centre of the town. All in all, we had a fantastic holiday and would love to return to the region as we certainly didn’t see everything there is to see, and we would definitely stay at this property again.
