Photos and Description of this Uzes holiday villa 5 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (1 e/s), 2 shower rooms (1 e/s), sleeps 8 - 10

Built in 2002 in the typical 'bastide' style of Provence this villa is situated in a quiet location on the slopes of a gentle hill on the outskirts of the beautiful mediaeval Duche of Uzes, giving it lovely views. It is the owners' 2nd home. The town lies close to the River Gardon and the famous 2000-year-old Pont du Gard. The area gives an authentic taste of the Midi, with its rolling hills and vineyards, its Roman remains and the hot sun. The villa is a 12 min walk to the town centre. It is light and spacious, being very comfortably furnished and equipped to a high standard.The layout is unusual with the bedrooms and bathrooms in three separate areas in the villa, all leading to the central living room and kitchen/diner with their long covered terrace. The garden is about 1/3 of an acre, mainly laid to lawn with masses of shrubs and many trees. The 60 sq m pool is at the centre of the main lawn and is overlooked by a 19 sq m covered terrace with seating for 12 and gas/charcoal BBQs

The Haribo factory and the Museum of Toys and Trains provide entertainment for children. Horse riding, quad biking, tennis and golf and all to be found in and around the town.Vineyards abound.
