Delightful and peaceful
What a wonderful spot to relax and unwind. Easily accessible from main routes but nonetheless utterly tranquil. Dark skies at night, wonderful fresh bright mornings and lazy afternoons by the pool. Nick and Jenny are delightful hosts and we won’t hesitate to return.

Tolles Erholungsparadies
Was für ein schönes Gelände! Man blickt morgens über die Wiese oder auf seinen Frühstückstisch unter dem schattigen Maulbeerbaum. Unsere Kinder haben den großen Pool geliebt und waren glücklich über die Esel und Ziegen. Morgens sind sie raus und durch das Gelände gestreunt, das so viele tolle natürliche Spielmöglichkeiten bietet. Nick und Jenny sind großartige Gastgeber. Sie sind gleichzeitig zurückhaltend, aber immer ansprechbar und haben sehr wertvolle Tipps zur Umgebung, zu Veranstaltungen, zum Wetter, etc.

Heerlijk rustig en landelijk gelegen
Zeer gastvrije ontvangst. Zeer rustig gelegen. Loopafstand van dorpje Sauve dat klein maar fijn is. Voor wie van rust houdt maar ook dagtochtjes naar bekende plaatsen wil maken, ideaal.

Great cottage in wonderful surroundings
Stayed in the Bergerie, 3 bedroom cottage, set among the fields. It was just perfect for relaxing on the spot and exploring the area. The wifi was good enough for remote working (which is not always the case in places we stayed) which unfortunately I had to do for several days. Good job I take could take a dip in the great swimming pool to relax. At the same time the family could explore the area: kayaking on the Herault, Pont du Gard, bambouseraie, Nimes, beautiful Sauve, here is plenty to do. In the evenings we could relax, either cooking in the cottage, on the barbecue, or visiting the excellent restaurants in the area. Nick and Jenny are welcoming hosts who provided a bottle of rose, pleasant conversation and lots of tips on what to do in the area. For us this was an unplanned booking en route back home, but we struck it really lucky. Would return, highly recommended.

belle détente
Le gîte est très agréable, notamment la piscine suffisamment grande pour pouvoir nager. Le cadre naturel est superbe, Le lieu permet de belles promenades pédestres ou équestres. De plus, Sauve est un village plein de cachet. Quant aux hôtes, ils sont très accueillants.

Delightful, enjoyable, splendid family holiday
We are very grateful indeed for the wonderful time which we spent in this most delightful, peaceful and relaxing house. The house is most spacious, with fields (and donkeys!) around. Just opposite one is enchanted by a marvellous view of the mountain range, and not far away - just 20 Min leisurely walk- one reaches the village of Sauve. - The pool really is one (and not an enlarged bathtub). The children and we made good use of it (with an average of 34 C). Both Jenny an Nick are charming and discret hosts, always helpful and full of good advice and useful hints. - Those were wonderful two weeks, with outings to Avignon (not far) Nimes, hikes in the Cevennes, canoe wild water trips etc. - Do not go there! leave it to us!!! - Matthias

Joli gîte très bien situé
Nous avons passé une super semaine ! Les gites de Nick et Jenny sont très bien situés, il y a plein de choses à faire dans les alentours : beaux villages animés, l'embarras du choix pour se baigner en rivières, des sites d'escalade, la mer à une heure, Nîmes Montpellier, et les cévènnes pas loin, et plein d'autres choses que nous n'avons pas eu le temps de faire. Nick et Jenny sont très sympathiques et vous donnent plein de bons tuyaux. Ils reçoivent souvent des gîteurs anglais, souvent tout le monde se retrouve à la piscine, ce qui est très convivial et il est possible de tester son anglais dans les discussions. Sinon rien à dire sur le gîte pratique et confortable.
