Incredible property and view

I stayed at this 300+ year old property with various family members and friends for a month. The apartment, part of a small hamlet half way up a small mountain, was wonderful. The views from the patio and kitchen were sublime. Also, the adjoining lawns and gardens are huge. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. There are several hikes available right from the property and a lovely waterfall and rock swimming beach at the base of the mountain. The apartment is 1 hour north of Montpellier and there are several other day trips in the region such as a visit to Saint Guilhem-le-Désert. A true taste of French country life.

Autumn holiday in the Cevennes

Merci Joëlle and Patrick for your hospitality. We have very much enjoyed our stay in your holiday home. The house and the location are perfect. It was very clean and well equipped. And the Cevennes is an amazing part of France. A place worth visiting again.

Vacances reposantes à l'ombre des Cévennes

Le gîte est dans un cadre magnifique, permettant de profiter du jardin, pour se rafraîchir dans le bassin et lire à l'ombre des arbres lors de cet été caniculaire. C'est un endroit idéal pour se reposer et découvrir notamment le cirque de Navacelles et la bambouseraie, que je conseille pour les amateurs de nature et de flore. J'ai profité également du hamac sur la terrasse pour dormir à la belle étoile, spectacle garantie. Les hôtes ont été particulièrement disponibles et accueillants.

Dem Himmel so nah

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt bei bestem Wetter. Die Alleinlage erlaubt in der Nacht einen außergewöhnlichen Blick auf den Sternenhimmel, ganz zu Schweigen von der Aussicht in die Cevennen bei Tag. Als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen zu Fuß und mit dem Auto bestens geeignet! Hoffentlich können wir bald wiederkommen.

Ein Paradies, falls…

In der Zeit unserer alleinigen Anwesenheit haben wir Haus und Umgebung sehr genossen, ein Traum, wie schon andere Urlauber beschrieben haben. Die Besitzer sind nett und unkompliziert, wir durften Tomaten ernten, die lecker sind…Nur: irreführend ist es, nicht auf die mögliche Anwesenheit weiterer Urlauber im gleichen Gebäude mit großer Terrasse direkt über unserer hinzuweisen, es handelt sich nicht um eine, sondern zwei Appartements in dem sicher urigen alten Gemäuer. Wir hatten so in der ersten von drei Urlaubswochen Lärm von Oben, morgens früh und an den Abenden (4 Erwachsene, 2 Kinder, ein Hund, inkl. Musik und lauter Unterhaltung ohne Rücksicht auf uns. Daher geben wir 2 Sterne Abzug, leider, denn es kann wirklich ein Paradies sein!

La Combe, c'est un hameau cévenol intelligemment préservé par quelques passionnés. Joelle et Patrick sont de ceux là, et nous y accueillent chaleureusement. Nous tombons immédiatement sous le charme de ce vieux mas amoureusement restauré, meublé à l’ancienne et décoré avec gout. Parfaitement équipé pour recevoir les visiteurs.C’est un merveilleux balcon sur la nature, pour se reposer de la fatigue des randonnées à l’entour, ou de l’agitation du monde.
