About this property

You will stay in the old barn (pailhot) of a typical Cévennes farm recently restored, the exposed framework and the shale stone walls give an authentic and rustic charm to this gîte. The house is located in a small calm and serene hamlet away from the main roads, surrounded by nature (forest, stream) just 6 km from Villefort.
You will reach it by an independent entrance from the rest of the house on one level with an enclosed courtyard of 50 m2 which is reserved for you, very sunny and equipped with garden furniture. From the south side windows you will enjoy a beautiful view of the mountain opposite and the owners' small flower garden below.
To reach the house from the village street you will have to descend a 'calade' for 20 m. Good shoes recommended! Sportsmen and fishermen can take their equipment down there: a small room (old 'clède') is available to them at the back of the courtyard.

Simple, charming, very quiet.

While we enjoyed our week in the cottage we felt the owner's description was a little misleading. Apart from two small windows with net curtains there were no views of the lovely countryside and the small courtyard, enclosed in high stone walls, had very little sun. (This might be welcome in high summer). Access is really quite challenging, down a very uneven, stony path, and luggage had to be carried/wheeled 200 yds. The nearest restaurant, in Altier, was 5km away but very good. The town of Villefort for all shopping (even bread) was at least 8km. The cottage was comfortable for two of us, clean, and well appointed, but we think it would be very cramped for the advertised five.

Repos assuré

Très beau gite dans cette grange rénovée. Logement tout confort, rien ne manque et tout est de qualité. Les propriétaires viennent chercher nos bagages à l'entrée du hameau car l'accès en voiture est compliqué et sont charmants et à l'écoute. A réserver aux personnes valides car l'accès au gite est un peu délicat et aux amoureux de la nature Environnement magnifique avec le lac de Villefort et le mont Lozère. Bref, très bon rapport qualité prix. A conseiller

Excellent séjour

Gîte de caractère dans un hameau typique de Lozère, très calme. Parfait pour 2, bien équipé et aménagé, très bien placé pour explorer la région. Très bon accueil sur place. Juste un petit point à améliorer : la wifi installée très récemment donnait un accès assez aléatoire. Séjour à renouveler sans hésitation !
