Perfect Place to enjoy and discover the Cevennen

We spent three weeks in this ancient, well equiped holiday home. It is ideal for hot days as cool inside and with a wonderful terrace to enjoy the stunning view and to watch the stars at night. On rainy or colder days the woodburner creates a romantic atmosphere. We did a lot of cooking in the well equiped kitchen. The weekly market in Ganges offers a wide variety of fresh and regional products. Try the sweet onions which are typical for the Cevennes. One very nice walk passes right along the house. Maps are also available as well as information about walks and places of interest to visit. September and October are the right time for travelling if you want to enjoy nature by watching the wildlife around the house and in the area. As the main holiday season is over the hamlet is a quiet place then. The bridge of Millau, the Mont Aigual and the vulture visitor center are quite close, and can even be combined in a daytrip. Also Montpellier is reachable within an hours drive. The communication and contact with the owners have been very easy. We got any support needed and a lot of interesting and helpful information.

Eine phantastische Ferienwohnung mit sehr netten Vermietern in einem winzigen Weiler am Hang auf einem großen, zugänglichem Grundstück. Mit rund 90 qm, angenehm teilbeschatteter Riesenterrasse, sehr stimmiger antiker Möbilierung, die perfekt mit dem alten, aber gut instand gehaltenen Haus harmoniert und sehr schönem Panoramablick in die Natur, fühlt man sich rundum pudelwohl. Besonders auffällig ist die sehr reichhaltige Ausstattung mit Haushaltsgegenständen und -geräten. Sogar Fernglas, Taschenlampe und Ersatzbatterien liegen aus. Für Ausflüge sind mehr als genügend Anleitungen, Karten, Flyer usw. vorhanden. Die Vermieter haben schlicht an alles rund um das Gästewohl gedacht. Im ca. 7-8 km entfernten Städtchen Ganges bekommt man in den Supermärkten alles was man braucht. Der Super U inkl. günstiger Tankstelle war unser Favorit. Baden kann man auf einem Gelände am ca. 2 km entfernten Wasserfall. Über die Sehenswürdigkeiten der Gegend mit ihren Grotten, Hochplateaus usw. braucht man nicht viel Worte verlieren, es ist einfach nur großartig. Manche kleinere Sträßchen in der Gegend, so auch hoch zum Haus, sind öfter mal eng und natürlich ziemlich kurvig. So dauern Ausflüge schon mal etwas länger als gedacht, aber im Urlaub hat man ja Zeit. Ein rundum empfehlenswertes Feriendomizil mit viel Ruhe und Erholungswert.

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!

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.
