Incredible property and view
I stayed at this 300+ year old property with various family members and friends for a month. The apartment, part of a small hamlet half way up a small mountain, was wonderful. The views from the patio and kitchen were sublime. Also, the adjoining lawns and gardens are huge. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. There are several hikes available right from the property and a lovely waterfall and rock swimming beach at the base of the mountain. The apartment is 1 hour north of Montpellier and there are several other day trips in the region such as a visit to Saint Guilhem-le-Désert. A true taste of French country life.

Havre de paix
Gîte remarquable par sa situation: en pleine nature, au calme , avec une superbe vue sur les montagnes des Cevennes. Son accès avec une route étroite et sinueuse contribue au charme de cette location. Propriétaires forts sympathiques et soucieux du bien être des locataires ; Gîte propre,accueillant avec beaucoup de cachet.Très fonctionnel avec toutes les commodités. Belles découvertes à faire dans un périmètre assez proche (cascades superbes à 2km, cirque de Navacelle à 35 km ect..). Bref, un endroit parfait pour se ressourcer et pour lequel nous reviendrons avec plaisir.

Location très agréable.
Nous avons tous aimé la semaine passée à la Combe, dans cette maison confortable, décorée avec beaucoup de goût. Terrasse et balcon très agréables, particulièrement pour le petit déjeuner, face au soleil, qui apparaît derrière la montagne. Accueil très sympathique.

About the host

Hosted by Joëlle Bresson

Host profile image
Our roots from the Cevennes and our love to the region did motivate us during the years of the renovation of the cottage, which was built in the 17th century during the time of the breeding ot the silkworms. It is a nice way for thanking our elders for the history and their hard work. It's the place where our sons did grow up in total freedom.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is and will stay our family cottage. The hamlet of La Combe is located 2 km above the village of Saint Laurent Le Minier in front of the dale of the Vis. Everything is full of sun and green. The wide open space and the magic of this space are perfect for breathing new life.

What makes this property unique

The situation of the hamlet allows you to travel through the region and than to enjoy some peace on the sundeck. The fully renovated cottage is very comfortable. During the summer, you may enjoy bathing in the clear water of the Vis and canoeing on the river 'Hérault'. There are plenty of visits to do in the surroundings, you may travel with your car, your bike, your feet or on the back of a donkey. You may also laze in the coolness of the house or in the shadow of the trees.
