About this property

Romantic 19th Century Tower + ( Summer Annexe ) In Own 1 Acre Near The Sea

Who has never dreamt of a tower? In quiet secluded private 1 acre wooded grounds, our beautifully restored 19th century Tower provides sun or shade for lazing around or eating under the pergola . After a day at the beach or sightseeing , the cicadas song will enchant you . Indoors, its whitened stone walls give a feeling of being away from it all .The tower has its own private entrance (chemin de la gandole) and ample parking spaces. Secluded and invisible from the main property occupied by the owners (100 m away) it offers privacy as well as easy contact if needed. ''Le Cabanon" a charming well equipped summer annex (30m2 ) with two bedrooms , shower-room and separate toilet adds flexibility. Children love exploring and playing in the one acre grounds , while teenagers can use numerous buses to reach the beach in Le Grau Du Roi or Nîmes In Summer the pool is at the main disposal of guests and very safe for young children . 'Le Cabanon ' offers extra accommodation during the Summer because some families are keen to share their holidays with friends or family. It is best suited for 6 adults and 4 children (in total 10 sleeping places )They are happy to enjoy the country atmosphere yet so close to the beaches . Outside Summer , the tower is rented on its own. It is well suited for couples or honeymoon holidays or four people with two or no children (six sleeping places maximum). Close by, Aimargues is a typical ' Petite Camargue ' village surrounded by open countryside, superb for country walks or bicycle rides . Surrounded by a secular tree - lined promenade, it makes for a very pleasant village walk. In the heart of the village, there are charming old houses in narrow streets. It is well provided with two bakeries,two butchers,two vegetable shops, one chemist,four doctors,three hairdressers , two newspaper and tobacco shops ,two supermarkets,a post - office , two restaurants and typical local cafés etc... Near by are the beautiful towns of Nîmes, Montpellier and Arles. Close by, the unspoilt fauna and flora of the Camargue .In Aigues-Mortes, the intact walled city of Saint Louis, from where he departed for the Crusades, do not miss the grand salt mountains and in the pink waters of the marshes ,the pink flamingos are stunning .Carry on to the beach of 'Espiguette so wild and vast for beaching or superb walks .

Super hosts; beautiful tower; lots to do.
We enjoyed a lovely two weeks at The Tower at the end of August. The hosts are delightful people who help to make your visit much more fun with their knowledge of the area and interesting conversation. We travelled to some lovely towns nearby, which have lots of beautiful buildings and art galleries to explore. The beaches are also very nice, with several to choose from and warm sea for swimming. Our highlight was the medieval festival at Aigues Mortes, the children loved dressing in costumes, listening to the musicians and charging around the ramparts. The grounds are nice and peaceful and the pool a real bonus for the little ones. We all loved eating food from the markets late into the night and watching the bats zoom around. Gita the cat is an excellent babysitter, keeping the smalls entertained! It was very hot during our visit, the breeze during the day kept it enjoyable for wandering around, but the grown ups did struggle to sleep in the evenings especially in the cabanon even with the fans. Also come armed with Avon So Soft and Chamomile lotion if mosquitos like you! The nearby village gives an authentic taste of French life and has a couple of nice restaurants, bars and a small playground. Most of our trips took 20 to 30 minutes as the motorway is close by, so not too much travelling to find something to interest everyone. Thoughly recommended!

Tremendous Welcome
My family - myself, partner, and grown-up daughter and son - enjoyed a wonderful week at Le Tour, a unique house in the Petite Camargue. Terry and Francoise live through the trees on the same extensive estate, but the Tour is completely private and peaceful. They were ideal hosts, there for answering any questions we had, but never intrusive. We couldn't thank them enough for providing such a great getaway. The house itself is beautifully renovated and comfortable. Outside there are several secret hideholes to sit and read, undisturbed. Beyond, you have pink flamingoes and other wildlife plus beaches and endless sightseeing if you want it.

Beautiful home away from home!
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property. It was decorated very tastefully, and equipped with everything you might need. The tower was charming and the cabana was very comfortable. The pool was lovely and we loved reading and socialising in the shady areas around the tower. We were a group of 5 teenagers and 4 adults. The area was great for lots of activities and we enjoyed lots of day out. Our host deserve special note as the were the kindest, most helpful hosts I have ever had at a gite! (15th visit to France!) Nothing was too much to ask, and we felt like friends when we left! I definitely hope to be back soon!!!!

Dream location!
We stayed at "La Tour" in May this year for 2 weeks with our 3 children (7, 5 and 2) and grandparents and it's been a fantastic time. The tower and its garden are absolutely beautiful. The tower is very well equipped, although we've literally lived outside the whole 2 weeks enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The children loved just playing outside, using the pool and also "adopted" one of the cats of Francoise and Terry. The tower is perfectly located for a lot of day trips to discover the South of France. We've been to the beach quite often (20 minutes), but have also visited sights nearby like Aigues Mortes, Le Grau du Roi, Nimes with its beautiful Arena and Le Pont du Gare, went on a fishing trip and enjoyed horse riding. And there is lots more! Francoise and Terry have been lovely hosts helping with day to day questions and providing tips on places to go . Thank you to both of you for making our 2 weeks such a memorable time. We'll definitely be back :-) Achim & Diana with family, Germany
