Thank you Christoph and friends,
I am glad you enjoyed the stay.
A mistake occured on the web site when answering your after-stay. It shows a thumb down... a total mistake.
I called them to fix that !
Sincerely,
Henri
A very large rambling house full of quirks and interesting stuff. Everything you need certainly available. In fact it feels like the owner left one day and left everything there, There are so many 'spots' inside and out to sit and eat or just enjoy the views and ambience.

Rambling house in a tiny hamlet.
Quiet sprawling house in a small hamlet. Henri was helpful and flexible with our checkin and out. The house was well appointed will all our needs for cooking and sleeping. The pool was a lovely reprieve from the heat on some sweltering days. The area was full of activities, hiking in the Cévennes, lovely small towns, Arles and Nîmes were a short drive away and the coast was an easy day trip. Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay. Thank you Henri!

Thank you Leeor,
It was great meeting you and having you in Quilhan.
I am pleased you enjoyed your stay and the region. You made the most of it !
The property and owner provided everything my family and I needed to make our vacation memorable.Only a 5 minute drive from the property to Quissac, with other locations (Sauve and Sommiers) and vineyards within easy reach and full of character.Nothing was a problem for the owner (Henri) and his genuine friendliness and good english helped tremendously. My French may be what I remember from my school days ... but trying to speak French is a must and something people responded to in a positive way. Au revoir.

Aufenthalt bei Henri
Der Aufenthalt war wirklich sehr schön. Das Anwesen ist geradezu rießig und auch das Haus bietet vielfach Rückzugsmöglichkeiten. Einziger Wermutstropfen war die teilweise fehlende Sauberkeit und ein paar technische Angelegenheiten im Haus (Wasserhähne, Waschmaschine und optional fehlende Mückengitter). Ansonsten ist das Anwesen wunderschön, der Blick auf die Umgebung ist einfach atemberaubend. Der Zugang zum Fluß ein Traum. Es war ein wunderbarer Urlaub.

On a passé un super réveillon entre amis dans la maison d’Henri. Tout est bien agencé, beaucoup de choses disponibles pour cuisiner sur place, et le lieu est très accueillant, on recommande à 100% !
Emplacement exceptionnel,
Cadre enchanteur,
Calme et sérénité,
Beaucoup à voir et à faire dans les environs immédiats,
Décoration cosy pour se sentir vraiment en vacances,
Maison bien équipée pour cuisiner, pour être confort (clim) et en toute intimité (3 SdB), piscine, cuisine d'été,
Henri notre hôte est très accueillant, facile d'accès, patient et fait confiance.
L'une de nos meilleure location de ces dernières années
La propriete est bien isolee dans un cadre champêtre merveilleux. La demeure est grande et permet de venir a plusieurs tout en ayant de la place et du confort. Tres bonne adresse avec piscine et beaucoup d'espace et de nature pour se reposer ou organiser des animations.
Henri est un hôte adorable qui nous a accueilli très chaleureusement et nous a donné de bons conseils pour profiter de la région.
Cadre idyllique : maison très agréable décorée comme une maison de famille, très spacieuse et extrêmement bien équipée. Piscine très propre avec vue incroyable.
De nombreuses activités très sympas à proximité : canoé, paddle, rivières, villages charmants...
Un endroit à découvrir absolument !

Un cadre idéal pour les vacances entre ami avec les enfant, les adolescents et les adultes ...
Piscine et espace vraiment adapté pour des vacances en groupe.
Tres belle propriété au calme et entourée de verdure où nous avons trouvé tout le confort nécessaire pour passer une excellente semaine entre amis (12 personnes dont 4 enfants en bas âge), loin du tumulte des centre-villes touristiques et en même temps à proximité de très beaux spots (Sommieres, Anduze, Sauve…).
La région est propice aux randonnées ombragées au cœur de la garrigue.
Par ailleurs Henri a été un hôte extrêmement accueillant et chaleureux, et nous le remercions vivement pour sa disponibilité et avons beaucoup appréciés les quelques moments partagés ensemble (spécial coup de cœur pour le petit concert privé du dernier soir ! 😉)
Nous recommandons vivement cette propriété pour passer un super séjour ressourçant!
