Leave ReviewA lovely place to stay
By Val, Steve and Dottie on 25-Jun-2025We all enjoyed our stay in this very lovely holiday home surrounded by beautiful countryside. The property was dog-friendly and near to a beautiful stretch of river where Dottie was able to swim each evening for a cool down! The house was clean, spacious and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen. We enjoyed our use of the good-sized and attractive garden and found the hot-tub very cooling and relaxing - especially as the weather was very hot during our stay. The owners were friendly and very helpful. The Gard area offers some lovely places to visit including some great local markets.
