Really lovely and quirky house. Great pool, although too late in the season for us to really use it. Excellent tennis court and basketball hoop - lots of fun. Excellent access to the Gorge and various hikes. Highly recommend.

Teenage dream!

A fabulous, quirky house spread over many levels with all the mod cons ensured a very relaxing and comfortable stay. Tennis court and swimming pool meant the teenagers were entertained and happy, whilst being in the heart of the Ardeche for river swimming and canoeing! We loved our stay and meeting our lovely, friendly and helpful host.

Schöne Gegend, unkomplizierter Umgang mit dem Vermieter direkt nebenan, sehr schöner Tennisplatz, den Pool haben wir nicht benutzt, dafür war es zu kalt, konnten aber draußen auf der Wiese sitzen. Das Haus ist eine ganz alte charmante Anlage, und mutet wie eine Festung an. Das Mobiliar ist ebenfalls vielfach antik, die Betten und Matratzen dürften gerne neuer sein. Im Sommer ist es sicher herrlich kühl drinnen, die Wände sind dick gemauert, die Fenster klein, und die Zimmer recht dunkel. Zur aktuellen Zeit an Ostern hat uns ein gemütlicher geschützter Ort mit Sonnenschein gefehlt. Ansonsten ist es für eine Gruppe fein, dass jedes Zimmer ein eigenes Bad hat. Wir haben eine schöne Zeit dort verbracht!

Großartiges Haus, das liebevoll renoviert wurde und mit seinem Charme überzeugt! Die Lage ist weit abseits der Touristenströme, es lässt sich also mit gepflegtem Pool und Tennisplatz ganz fantastisch zur Ruhe kommen. Besonders gefallen hat uns, dass direkt hinter dem Haus der Wanderweg zu einem kleinen Strand in den Schluchten führt. Ein anderer Weg führt zu einem fantastischen Aussichtspunkt! Die Gastgeber, die nebenan wohnen, sind sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, so konnten wir uns schnell in der Gegend zurechtfinden und bekamen super Tipps, um essen zu gehen. Für alle die gerne selbst kochen, gibt es eine gut ausgestattete Küche und einen Holzkohle-Grill!

Wir waren mit zwei Familien (9 Personen) in dem Haus und hatten wirklich einen tollen Aufenthalt.Das Haus ist in seinem Aufbau einzigartig mit seinen zwei Innenhöfen, den ganzen Treppen, den vielen Sitzgelegenheiten und seiner Ausstattung. Super, dass jedes der vier großen Schlafzimmer mit einem eigenen Bad verbunden war.Den Tennisplatz, der richtig gut in Schuss war, den Basketballkorb und den Swimmingpool haben wir ausgiebig genutzt, auch den Petanque-Platz mit den vorhandenen Boule-Kugeln. Die Tischtennisplatte war aufgrund des defekten Netzes leider keine wirkliche Option.Die Küchenausstattung ist fantastisch: von allem ist mehr als genug vorhanden.Der Vermieter war in seiner zurückhaltenden Art äußerst angenehm und half, wenn man ein Problem hatte (Wespennetz, Tennisbälle auf der Pferdekoppel), umgehend.Über einen etwa halbstündigen Fußweg kann man eine wunderschöne Stelle der Ardèche erwandern – sehr lohnenswert!Wenn es etwas zu kritisieren gibt, dann ist das vielleicht der Zustand der Pool-Umgebung (viel Unkraut, wacklige Fliesen, etwas unstabile Sonnenschirme) und die allgemeine Sauberkeit des alten urigen Hauses (z.B. Küchenutensilien), in welches es bei Unwetter zum Teil auch hineinregnet. Damit haben wir uns aber gut arrangieren können.

Belle maison authentique près de L’Ardèche Rivière

Belle maison authentique, propre et dotée de nombreuses chambres spacieuses, chacune avec salle de bain et toilettes privatives. Nous avons été enthousiasmés par les nombreuses pièces de la maison. La cuisine est bien équipée avec suffisamment de vaisselle. Le jardin est magnifique, avec piscine, court de tennis et terrain de pétanque. Raquettes et balles sont également à disposition. Un grand plus : la possibilité de se rendre à pied à une petite plage en Ardèche (à une demi-heure). Nous avons apprécié l'ambiance chaleureuse. Les propriétaires sont accueillants et sympathiques. Nous espérons y retourner. Merci beaucoup.

Semaine entre amis

Magnifique propriété où nous avons passé une semaine fantastique (4 adultes et 4 enfants de 9 à 12 ans)! Malgré la chaleur, la piscine et la terrasse sous arcades nous ont permis de rester au "frais" et merci pour les ventilateurs dans les chambres! En parlant de chambre, il s'agit plutôt de 4 suites tellement elles sont grandes! Tout le matériel est à disposition, de la Senseo, à la machine à laver, en passant par le lave-vaisselle (pratique à 8!), et jusqu'aux ustensiles de cuisine divers et variés. Le barbecue au charbon a fonctionné toute la semaine pour faire honneur aux vacances! Excellente communication avec notre hôte pendant le séjour. A conseiller, le canoë sur l'Ardèche ou les grottes à proximité (les 14°C ont été appréciés 😜) En bref, des adultes et des enfants ravis, un grand merci pour ces beaux souvenirs!
