From this authentic nature house, you’ll enjoy a phenomenal view of the mountains and valleys of the Ardèche. Here, you can still breathe truly fresh air, and there’s no light pollution. In this place, you’ll be embraced by nature and tranquility. Here, you can hear the cheerful swallows and the sheep. This stylish cottage (sleeps 2–4) has been furnished with love and passion. It features a spacious living room and kitchen, as well as two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and toilet. The second bedroom is slightly smaller, as is the shower room. Thanks to the thick natural stone walls, it stays pleasantly cool inside. From the living room, you step directly onto the large wooden balcony, where you can enjoy the panoramic view. The cottage isn’t too remote—within 10 minutes you’ll be in Vals-les-Bains, a large village with a Sunday market, restaurants, a natural swimming pool, and charming shops. The owners are Dutch and live permanently upstairs in the house. They’re happy to assist you!

Nature and surroundings

The natural landscape of the Ardèche is very diverse: oak and coniferous forests, vineyards, rivers with deep gorges, chestnut and fruit orchards, and quiet, rural roads. There are many natural wonders to see here: the Ray-Pic waterfall, Mont Gerbier de Jonc, the Pont d’Arc, Chier de Borée, the Pont du Diable, and the beautiful Gorges de l’Ardèche. The surrounding area is home to many old and picturesque villages with charming squares, outdoor cafes, shops, wineries, and restaurants: Vals-les-Bains, Aubenas, Jaujac, Joyeuse, Vogüé, Mirabel, Balazuc, Labeaume, Largentière, and Antraigues. This is a great place for hiking, swimming, fishing, mountain biking, or road cycling, as well as canoeing, rock climbing, and canyoning. There’s an information folder in the cottage listing many more beautiful and unique spots. The hosts are happy to help you plan your trip!

    Fine place! Nature is beautiful.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Nature is impressive. View from the balcony really beautiful. It was unfortunately too hot to take walks, but the cottage stayed reasonably cool due to the thick walls. Everything was in the cottage, even the herbs for the food were ready. Extensive folder with tips for a nice stay. We made extensive use of them. Beautiful swimming spots discovered and fine restaurants to eat out. Recommended to go to this place once.

    For a couple, this cottage is worth a 10. However the two bedrooms and two bathrooms are of different sizes so when occupied by two couples one couple will have a different experience. We heard that the description on the website has since been updated and that is super. Otherwise it is a fine cottage and Anneke and Do take good care of you.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is beautifully situated with great views of the surroundings. In the morning birdsong and otherwise just nature.
