Salavas cottages

The property had everything we needed. The swimming pool was lovely and much needed. A beautiful area with lovely wildlife.

Quiet area but perfectly located for walking, visiting beautiful villages & of course the sublime Pont d'Arc.

It’s all been said about the view - it is fabulous and just sitting looking at it calms you down along with the distant sound of the river. It was a stop for us in our world rugby tour and totally did the job. Clean, well equipped and comfortable. A bonus was being to get Netflix when we had a rainy day! All the basics are there for cooking too. Tom was responsive and discreet which is the perfect combination

As there are no English reviews, here's the first! We stayed here in late September and the weather was fortunately good. The house is equipped for a holiday stay (no bath towels but hand & tea towels + bath mats provided - don't know if this is a French thing). Both showers are large and powerful. There was always plenty of hot water . TV is French terrestrial but there is fast internet so we watched Netflix and Sky with no difficulty by streaming through laptop to the TV. Beds comfortable and linen new. Pool is uniform depth (approx. 4ft 6in) and there is a nice seat across at the house end. Best ever pool cover for retaining heat early and late in the season. It is electrical operated so easy to use. Pool has very high tech filtration system in the garage. Also in the garage is a modern washing machine. The garden and house are raised up from a small, narrow road and can just be seen from the road and neighbouring properties. It is in a great location for exploring the area, particularly Pont d' Arc and the Ardeche region. The furthest we went was to Pont De Gard for the Roman remains, about 1hr 45min away. Don't miss the character villages, such as Sceautres and Rochecolombe and the cave at Aven D' Orgnac and the reproduction of the Grotte Chauvet at Caverne Du Pont Arc. If you are trying to find the campsite to collect the keys note that it is at Casteljau which is about 4km from Berrias (they are separate places). You then follow Jean's car to the house about 1km away. He and his family are very nice. His English was better than our French. Would we stay there again? - yes. Suspect the area is a lot busier in the French school holidays but this would mean more of the local restaurants would be open. Overall a great place to stay and good value for money.
