Location: Uzes, Languedoc-Roussillon, France, Europe (Just a five-minute walk from the historic center of Uzes)
Accommodations: Villa, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths (Sleeps 6)
This light and airy three-bedroom, two-bathroom, fully equipped, provencal villa, just five minutes on foot from the centre of medieval Uzes, offers you all the convenience of a town apartment PLUS a 120 square-meters Mediterranean garden with two terraces and barbecue, an enclosed 'terrace Tropezienne' (solarium, or sun-terrace) on the first floor, and an attached, lockable, garage with an additional parking space all within a quiet and secure, gated, residential environment.
Sunbathe or chill out with a glass of wine in the intimacy of the upstairs sun-terrace, outdo Rick Stein or Jamie Oliver in the well equipped kitchen, dine outside on the sheltered garden terraces or inside, relax with a good book, a CD or DVD (or UK Freeview satellite TV) in the comfortably furnished living area, or simply visit the many and varied restaurants and cafes of Uzes and safely stroll back to the villa for a quiet night's sleep in large comfortable beds: no need to worry if sharing that bottle of wine has put you over the legal limit for driving!
In just a minute after walking out of the villa up the chemin du Paradis, you will find yourselves in the narrow, twisting streets of Uzes, an extraordinarily beautiful medieval town in Provence, Gard, set in a region of verdant valleys rimmed by ribs of arid, rocky garrigue, between the sea and the Cevennes mountains. The villa is no more than five minutes' walk from restaurants, patisseries, boulangeries, cafes, small supermarkets, and the town's famous arcaded square, the Place aux Herbes, scene of the renowned Saturday and Wednesday provencal market.
Despite its central location, you can also walk out and into vineyards and fields where you can wander along the paths, or you can descend into the craggy gorge of the Eure valley and walk along its refreshing rushing river. There you will discover the spring which was the source of water for thirsty Roman Nimes, flowing via the famous aqueduct that crosses the spectacular Pont du Gard.
