4 sovrum med pool, nära den historiska staden Uzes, södra Frankrike

I have been coming to France since childhood - the 1 st time was to Frejus ; we then went to Corsica for 3 consecutive years. When our children were growing up we toured France staying on campsites in mobile homes .The 1 st year we camped we stayed in St Ambroix from where we visited Uzès and the Pont du Gard . Most years after that we visited a different part of France- Normandy, Brittany, the Alps, the Vendée, the Dordogne, the Vosges, the Jura, The Pyrenees to mention a few . Yet it was the memory of our 1 st holiday that stayed with us when we were looking to buy a property in France. We had considered Provence which was my father's regular holiday destination , but luckily ended up 'over the border' in the Languedoc.
Here we feel we have the best of everything, the best wine, fabulous scenery, culture, history, local produce, great restaurants .
We still love Provence which we can easily visit but then come home to the Languedoc. To the south we have historic Nimes, Arles and the Camargue. You can even have a day trip to the seaside. To the west are the Cevennes mountains and national park ,an area with a sparse population but dramatic scenery and history. To the east is Provence . To the north, the Ardèche gorge.
All these areas are well worth visiting , yet there are also delightful places almost on the doorstep. St Siffret itself has winding ancient mediaeval streets and houses. St Quentin la Poterie continues its tradition in ceramics with about 20 pottery studios, a museum of pottery and an annual festival of ceramic arts. Saint Victor la Coste, a hidden treasure with ruins of a fortified chateau on a rocky hilltop,not many tourists and less than a 25 minute drive away. Or drive 20 mins in another direction and wander round the Pond du Gard.
