Affordable holiday villa in exclusive location. Take a look for yourself!
Exclusive two-storey Provencal villa with all comforts in enhanced location with panoramic view of the wonderful valley of ‘La Cèze’.

A very peaceful, safe area, far removed from the hustle-bustle, but still within 2-3 minutes (car) of all the restaurants and shops and the weekly market. The bright, generous living room (48 m² in all) with fireplace has the atmosphere of southern Europe. The kitchen with access to the covered outer terrace (which is the main room in Provence) is a dream. There are 2 large bedrooms with a bathroom each (WC and shower), garage, utility room, washroom. The atmosphere is enhanced by the carefully executed architecture with bay windows and Mediterranean colors. The carefully managed garden (700 m²) has plenty of space to relax and unwind.

Surrounded by grapes, olive trees and the wild Carrigue forest in the Cèze valley lies the tiny village of Goudargues. The village of only 800 inhabitants is lively the whole year through. From early morning bakers entice customers with the scent of freshly-baked baguettes, later you’ll meet locals and holiday-makers shopping at the grocer’s shops or at the weekly market. The gorgeous cafés under the plane trees along the riverside will draw you in to drink a pastis, and before long it’s time for the midday menu with the obligatory cheese platter for dessert. Discover the public laundry house and watch women, even today, rinsing out their daily laundry in the clear water of the fountain. Or get to know the southern landscape of Provence on foot, by walking in the romantically natural surroundings, beside shady trees along the Cèze or through the Carrigue shrubs, alive with the fresh scent of lavender.

Possible excursions in the region
Nimes, Avignon and Orange are probably the most important towns in the region, all worth a visit beyond doubt. But the nearby small town of Uzès is a good place to stop on the way, as is the Pont du Gard, a 2000-year-old roman aqueduct and one of the most visited sights in France. In the local area there are lots of interesting places to see, like the enchanting mediaeval villages of Cornillon, Montclus, Barjac, Lussan and Salazac. Just nearby lies La Roque sur Cèze, one of the most beautiful villages in France, enthroned on top of a cliff.
