Feel French in this very beautiful 300-year-old house with a large garden and pool in a hilltop medieval village of winding, cobbled streets

The house is on three storeys and has been restored in excellent taste. Find exposed stone or lime-covered walls in gorgeous colours, clever lighting, spoiling bathrooms, lots of light pouring in and an uncluttered, modern feel with attractive antiques to lend character. Cooks will always have company (and hopefully help) in the big kitchen with plenty of room for prepping, sitting at the table sipping wine, or wandering in and out from the terrace or sitting room.

Both sitting room and kitchen lead out to a terraced area with a raised bed of herbs, a lovely pool and flowering shrubs. You can eat out here at a large table or on the lower courtyard with wooden doors opening onto the street. Outdoors you'll always find shade or sun and you're not overlooked. Thick stone walls keep you cool in summer, warm in winter and there's a wood-burner for really chilly days.

Bedrooms are stylish and comfortable, the whole house is a treat.

Local points of interest from Luke & Jess:

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Luke & Jess:

  • The views from the converted pigeon tower - we now use it as an office and atelier, with a spare bed - are spectacular. Watch the light change over the village and the Cévennes in the distance.
  • The large terrace by the living room abuts an old 'magnanerie', an ancient industrial premise where local artisans once cultivated silk worms for the local silk industry.
  • Vézénobres came to prominence as one of the trading posts of the Regordane Way, the ancient route taken by travelers on their way to the Holy Land.
  • In the summer evenings you can watch the swifts play in the sky above the garden. The words you see above the blue doors leading to the lower courtyard, "Aig tilleadh nan ainnleag-mòra" mean "At the swifts' return" in Scots Gaelic.
  • From the village you can explore so many amazing places. Uzès, Nimes, Avignon, Orange, Montpellier - all are under an hour's drive from the house. Not to mention the Cévennes national park and the Pont-du-Gard, which are also nearby and great for swimming.
  • The swimming pool has been built into the medieval 'réstanques', a form of terracing that was used in the area to cultivate steep hills. Beyond them you can see the medieval walls of the old city, which form the boundary of the property.
