Authentic & breathtaking

The authentic design of this holiday villa is typical of this picturesque region. It is a classic example of a beautiful mix of French and Roman styles, inspired by the iconic Pont du Gard, which this villa - as the only one in the region - looks directly over. Think: large, covered galleries that encircle the villa and connect different spaces, seamlessly blending the inside with the outside, and vice versa. Roman masonry decorates the ceiling vault of the kitchen, a nod to the historic aqueduct in the valley beyond. The white wooden panels on the wall and the beautiful weathered beams in the ceiling of the living room remain true to the quintessential French heritage.

The better outdoor life

Life here is mostly outdoors, no wonder with a private pool (10x5m) just a few steps from the covered terrace and a blissful sunny climate that will give your vitamin D supply an instant boost. Think: lazing in the shade with your friends or lounging in the sun by the pool, there is no shortage of outdoor spaces!

Explore the garden around the villa and you will discover colourful roses in full bloom, a cactus garden, fig trees, a potager, fragrant eucalyptus and wild Mediterranean herbs, ideal for cooking in the fully equipped kitchen. And when the sun sets, the terrace is transformed into the ultimate place for an al fresco dinner, after which you can end your soiree in style in front of the fireplace and the heat lamps.

Each of the seven rooms has its own unique style with shower room. Four have direct access to the terrace.

Feel like exploring the surroundings? Then you cannot ignore the eye-catcher of the region: the Pont Du Gard. Did you know that this ingenious Roman construction is 48 m high and was built some two thousand years ago over a distance of 42 km to bring water from Nîmes to Uzès?
