Date of Stay: July 2009
The website and photos give an accurate impression of this charming and unique property. We were a family of 2 adults, 2 teenagers, and an 8 and 11 year old. The house met all our needs, especially the large, clean and well maintained pool. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area - we enjoyed canoeing, a water park, wine tasting, eating out in Uzes and visiting the Haribo factory store!
Not detracting at all from our stay, but worth noting:
Access to the mezzanine is via a ‘floating’ stone staircase and may be difficult to access for the less physically able.
As described, the setting is ‘rural’ and really requires a car. Also in keeping with the rural setting there is an abundance of local insect life which does its best to invade the house!
Owner's Response: Whilst country 'criters' are part of the French country landscape, we aim to limit them invading the house by providing insect curtains on the majority of our windows and doors. We have noticed that sometimes these are removed by clients preferring easier acess i.e.to the kitchen. However, we do recommend leaving them in place or even asking our staff to replace curtains that have been removed by previous occupants - as I fear might have been the case in this instance.
Please note that wasps -the 'bane' of most summer pools- are conspicuous by their absence around our salt water pool; They don't like the salt at all!
