8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2024
We had a wonderful week here of pure relaxation. Our highlight was the garden. It was such a great space. Well kept with beautiful plants. Lots of space to chill out. The pool was fantastic and we spent time in there each day. There’s a large trampoline and swings for the kids too and pétanque balls and pool inflatables in the pool house. The house was fine for our needs. A very well equipped kitchen. As mentioned in other reviews the stairs would be tricky if you have young children or large suitcases. Beds are comfy and the downstairs shower is excellent. We were a bit disappointed to only get one towel each and no hand towels or tea towels for the bathrooms or kitchen. I had messaged this to the property agent and had to message again when there was no response. We were halfway through our stay before we got two tea towels dropped off. We ended up using one in the bathroom as a hand towel. It’s a pity as the house was so well equipped otherwise. The only other thing we were a bit put off by was dog poo near the pétanque court. The garden was big enough so we could just steer clear. Apart from those couple of things we had a great stay and we would come back again for sure. The owner was always quick to respond via Vrbo on the lead up to our stay. Plenty of things to do round and about Uzes. You do need a car.

Everything was fine except for the staircase which was steeper and tighter than expected. Also this time of the year (September) was bad for midges
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2022
We spent 5 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed it. The place is roomy and clean and the kitchen’s well equipped. The outdoor spaces are lovely and the setting is very quiet and private.
We didn’t use the pool but it looked inviting.
The owner was quite responsive and a pleasure to deal with.
6.0 / 10.0Average·May 2022
Nice house in really quit neighbourhood. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The beds are a bit short, two matrasses without a topper (not what you want on a holiday) and not very comfortabel. The swimmingpool is big enough but the water was not very clean. The kitchen is sufficient but not very modern and some of the equipment needs to be replaced. In general there was not much attention for details and hospitality.
