About this property

Stone house - medieval village South of France - commodities & services included

Restored in 2018 and refurbished exposed stone house dating from 1840 in the charming medieval village of Castillon du Gard. The house,which is made of the local stone from Vers Pont du Gard and has 95m2 living area. It is in a quiet area of the village and yet the restaurants, newsagent, bakery, post office and caterer are all within comfortable walking distance. There is also a small local market once a week. The pretty village is well lit at night and perfect for a gentle stroll along the cobbled lanes and taking in the views from the petanque area that overlooks the World Heritage roman aqueduct, the Pont du Gard.
Commodities & services included:
End of stay cleaning is included. Complies with the COVID-19 health protocol of the UNPLV in partnership with O² Care Services.
Bed linen and bath towels provided and included in the rates (change is offered for reservations longer than 2 weeks).

On entering the front door, the kitchen is to the right and the sitting room with fireplace (housing a large screen TV) is to the left. The kitchen has a door onto the garden. The kitchen is well equipped and has a dishwasher, American style fridge/freezer, electric halogen hob and electric oven with separate microwave. The table seats 6 people.

In the sitting room is a comfortable settee/sofa bed that could sleep a further 2 people. The TV is able to connect to the owner's Canal Plus subscription allowing a wide variety of channels. If you have a subscription outside of France, you would be able to enter your details and password and access your subscriptions (Netflix, Deezer, etc.) There are also a selection of games: Monopoly, Scrabble and playing cards. Also on the ground floor and behind the sitting room is a toilet.

On the upper floor are two bedrooms and two shower rooms. The shower room just outside bedroom 1 has a shower, washbasin and a toilet. Bedroom 2 has a shower and washbasin which is en suite. All beds and bed linen and towels are new as of May 2018. One of the bedrooms has a radio/MP3 player.

Every room in the house has been renovated and equipped at the beginning of 2018 thus providing clean and sparkling fixtures and fittings just waiting for your arrival.

Outside, is the shingled garden with two decked areas; ideal to enjoy your aperitif or dine under a shady parasol. Why not relax on a sun lounger and read or sunbathe to the sound of the Mediterranean cicadas?

Alongside the house is a garage area housing the central heating boiler, washing machine, 2 bicycles, etc. It is not possible to park in the garage, however, there is always room just alongside the wall of the house.

Castillon is a much sought after village with many of the houses dating from the 18th century and also made of the local Vers Pont du Gard golden stone. The buildings come alive in the sunset as the limestone turns a beautiful colour.

It is a perfect to leave the property and wander on foot to take in the history of the village and the old ramparts, the pretty cobbled streets, the roman chapel and the church tower. There is a superb view of the Pont du Gard, the roman aqueduct that is now listed as a World Heritage Centre. You can see this from the pathway behind the church where they play petanque.

In the nearby village of Remoulins (3kms) you can find a wide selection of shops, garages and banks, and also a large supermarket.

July in the Rhone Valley
The house is modern and quietly situated in a superb medieval village location, just 4 kms from the Pont du Gard. Only 5 kms from good grocery, pharmacy, etc. shopping and about 40 minutes to Avignon. Wish there was air cconditioning, but that's unusual in France. Also, an English instruction booklet for the stove and oven, and tv setup would be appreciated.

Wunderschön eingerichtet und perfekt gelegen
Das Haus ist wunderschön restauriert, perfekt eingerichtet und ideal gelegen. Wir haben die Terrasse bei stundenlangem Apéro genauso genossen wie das herrlich verträumte und doch lebendige Castillon-du-Gard.

Best ever
We've rented many properties in France through VRBO. Not all of them are as good as they were described. This is the one that exceeds the description by some way. The quality of the property is very high, the furniture the fixtures and fittings, the equipment, the location - everything is excellent. A key indicator to me was the quality of the kitchen knives (the cooking ones). Normally they are blunt, broken and fairly useless. Not here - I found myself wishing I had the same knives. The location is indeed very quiet as is the entire village. Which is also the best one we've encountered in France. What a gorgeous little place it is. Stunning views, wonderful architecture and excellent places to eat. And if that's not enough for you then within a few minutes drive there is even more choice. The nearby town of Uzés is wonderful and the market truly staggering. The range of produce is almost impossible to take in. However the real stars of the show were the owners, Nathalie and Jean Marc, who were very helpful with our delayed arrival (bouchon on the A9!) as we could not contact the property host Pascale. We spent some time with them and their friends and family, and more genial and generous hosts would be hard to find. Castillon du Gard has made a lasting and deep impression on us for its beauty, the climate and the welcoming and open nature of the people. Even the mosquitoes came out in force to welcome us :-) A fabulous property with wonderful owners.

Nicht alltäglich,
heute in einem komfortablen stilvollen Haus zu wohnen, in dem schon Leute ein- und ausgegangen sind, die die Französische Revolution noch selbst miterlebt haben. Andererseits in dieser Gegend mit sehr viel älteren und genauso beeindruckenden Geschichtszeugnissen auch wieder nichts besonderes. Wie wurden sehr freundlich und kompetent von einer netten Dame empfangen und verabschiedet. Ausstattung und Zustand des Hauses tadellos. Es lohnt sich bei Ausflügen, in alle Richtungen auszuschwärmen. Ganz gleich ob Schluchten und Höhlen und kleine Orte im Norden oder Reisfelder, Ètangs und Badestrände im Süden. Im Osten auf dem Ventoux bei extremem Wind und 8° C oder im Westen bei 35° C auf einem extrem schönen Markt am Samstag in Uzès. Allez-y!
