Large Luxury Farmhouse in the Heart of the Cotes du Rhone
Refurbished 250 year old Farmhouse with Private Pool
Sleeps 12 (6 Bedrooms)
|
|
'Mas de Cadignac' is in the heart of the unspoiled Languedoc-Roussillion, where the French go on holiday. The area is full of the sights, sounds, tastes and smells that make up the wonderful ingredients to truly fantastic holiday. Being close to the edge of the Cevennes and some of the greatest French tourist attractions, it's the perfect place to be. The Department of the Gard stretches from the wild and beautiful mountains of the Cevennes across the Rhone valley and sweeps down to the sandy beaches of the Mediterranean Sea, offering opportunities to experience a great variety of scenery and lifestyles. Immensely rich in historical sites dating from pre-Roman times to Roman towns or one of the small, stone-built, medieval villages dotting the hillsides amongst vineyards and fields of sunflowers. The surrounding countryside is enormously varied, bathing in a special quality of light similar to that of Tuscany, and enjoying an average of 320 days of sun a year.

Guest comments
“A wonderful couple of weeks in the French countryside. BBQ's in the evening were just divine. The pool was beautiful and just the right temperature for an early morning swim each day. Rene, the guardian's suggestions of places to go and things to do were great. All in all a wonderful holiday.” - the Polins and Mercers from Australia.
"We all have serious holiday blues since we returned on Saturday!!!! We had a great time and the weather was really beautiful. Thank you for the 'loan' of your beautiful house!!" - Robert & Allison Paing.
“For some of our group it has been our first visit to France! The weather has been amazing for September, did not realise it was going to be this warm. The villa is amazing! Very big with lots of outside space too. We have been addicted to table tennis, should start training for 2012. The pool was great.” - Robert Paine and party.
