Padern is a small village wonderfully l ocated on the Verdouble with numerous great spots to swim. If you don't mind driving ten minutes to the next store or bakery, this is for you! There are many castles to visit, one in Padern just 15min walk from the apartment. The apartment was perfect for us (family with two kids), very comfortable sofa-bed in living room and a separate bedroom that sleeps three. Great view! Shady terrasse, very lovely! The hosts are super friendly, we felt like their guests. They showed us around and made us feel at home! Thanks a lot to Eric and his family! We hope to be back one day.
