Things to do...
Food :-
The nearest shops are the local Carrefour and petrol station at Vezenobres. This is open on Sunday mornings. Small local shops and bakers are in the next village at Mejannes les Ales approx 5km. Ales is the nearest town (9km or 13min drive) and has a range of shops and restaurants including a large hypermarket (Cora). Closer to the house there is a fabulous restaurant (Auberge des Voutins) which always has a superb menu.
Locally there is a rich cultural history and plenty for those who want to explore. There are multiple historic sites close by including the Market towns of Uzes and Anduze and well as the Roman city museums and amphitheatre at Nimes. The nearby cave systems at Trubuc are fantastic, with regular guided tours.
There are two nearby aerial walkways (high ropes and zip wires) which are great fun for both children and adults. Alternatively canoeing from Collias takes you right underneath the historic Pont de Gard along the river Gard.
The nearest beach is 'La Grande Motte' is just over an hours drive away and is 10km of gently sloping sandy beach with sand dunes. The beach cafes offer excellent food and there is municipal parking next to the dunes.
For the more energetic there is paragliding at Seynes, rafting in the Cevenne and the Ardeche, and a national go-karting track in the nearby town Ales. The local area is great for cycling (both road and offroad) and there is a local horse riding school for those who enjoy riding.
There is a fumade or natural spring spa resort in a town close by. Golf is available at Nimes and Uzes and in the Winter skiing is possible in the Cevennes at Mount Lozere.
For those who prefer to simply chill out and relax the house and surrounding land is completely private and tranquil.

A fabulous pool, nice surroundings and a very helpful owner who was really quick to respond to any question we had.
However, there were quite some mishaps during our week. In the description it is stated there is aircondition. This was the worst air conditioner we have ever seen. This needs to be hung out through a window and is extremely noisy and is not doing its job, i.e to cool down the room. We couldn’t get the temperature lower than 24 degrees Celsius and with feverish old parents this was a nightmare.
Furthermore, the house is old and not well looked after. Cabinet doors in the kitchen are hanging very loosely and we had several electrical short cuts which made fridges and freezers (and washing machines) stop. To sort this out we needed to call the neighbor many times which was a bit disturbing.
Finally, since we are a family who loves to cook and was looking forward to using the grill in the garden it was rather irritating to have to clean it or pay 200 euros to have it cleaned. We left it in a perfectly clean condition but felt this should be included in the somewhat hefty price for this house.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay but would hesitate to recommend this house to people we know.

What an amazing property!! Beautifull well equiped house with large bedrooms. Fantastic garden, with a large dining area and a majestic pool that we and the children loved. Overall an outstanding family-villa.

Overall, villa itself and especially outdoors area are nice and met our expectations. Heated swimming pool was especially useful and it was warm enough for kids to spend as much time in the water as they wanted.
The stay was, however, not without issues. When we arrived villa was not very clean. It was dusty and not thoroughly cleaned. Instead of a gas grill which can be seen in the photos, there was only plancha and small charcoal grill which made cooking for 17 people quite tricky. We did, however, make no issues out of it, which, in hindsight, we should have done. At the end of the stay we got blamed and charged for couple of things we did not break – the pull-out bed and pool cover clippers. We even got charged for the extra cleaning even though we left villa in the usual standard of cleanliness (with all the dishes done, etc). We stayed many times in French, Italian and Spanish villas and never experienced such issues. Again, in hindsight, we should have reported any breakage we found to the owner but you don‘t want to spend beginning of your holidays doing full inventory of the villa. The owner of the villa is not present at site and is not very responsive to the requests (eg for the preparation of rooms, restaurant recommendations). Local guy looking after the villa was not particularly pleasant or fair especially at the end of our stay. It feels like he uses every opportunity to earn a bit of a cash on the side. We tried to reason with the owner – but reasoning is difficult when the owner has the deposit you paid and has no way of checking things. All in all, good villa but not the best experience.
