Review Submitted: August 10, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
I could live there! All the superlatives come to mind immediately. This was the most wonderful place to stay - tranquil and relatively remote, though within an easy drive (about 15 minutes) of le Vigan with its wonderful Saturday market, two supermarkets and cheap fuel. Sit on the balcony and you hear the buzzing of the bees on the lavender and the burble of the water in the river - that's it! Beautiful walks, lovely little villages all around with Arles, Nimes, the Pont du Gard and Avignon within 80km. If you really LOVE walking then you could POSSIBLY do without a car but it would be very difficult. There are several local restaurant serving good food but we homed in on the Auberge Cocagne in Aveze (same distance as le Vigan) where the owner and the other staff were extremely friendly and spoke some English. They have a daily menu which is excellent. The booklet provided by the owner is very comprehensive and accurate and the property is well provided with everything you could want (and more! - the inventory is HUGE) I SHALL be going back, which is probably the best test of how good the holiday was, and I have already told all my friends about it. For some, however, the thought of no television may put them off! If you want to relax and have the pace of life slow to a crawl, then go. If you want noise and entertainment - stay away! The cottage is ideal for two. You could have three at a push (there is a "day" bed in the downstairs room) The path is steep and rocky and there is a big drop off the balcony (it does have a rail!) so I wouldn't really recommend it for a young child unless you tied them to something! For us - Perfect.
