Nous avons passé un excellent séjour en famille dans cette magnifique maison restaurée avec goût avec une âme et un charme authentique, et rien de manque à notre confort. La vue depuis la terrasse et la piscine est superbe .Un grand merci à Sarah et David pour leur acceuil, leur discrétion, les cadeaux de bienvenue et leur sympathie. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir .Dominique et Fabienne et les enfants.
La Bergerie is a beautiful place. The setting is perfect with views across the vineyards to the mountains and the peace broken only by the sound of crickets. The house was spotlessly clean and a good place to cool down even in the record breaking temperatures we experienced. The decor is lovely. Everything is so well appointed and comfortable. We were met by Sarah on arrival who greeted us with great friendliness. From then on the place was our own. We swam in the pool in delightful seclusion and ate outside with not another soul in sight. This is the perfect place for an undisturbed getaway. Nearby Nyons and Vinsobres are pretty towns with restaurants and cafes and a lovely Sunday market in Nyons. There are vineyards and olive farms selling their produce everywhere and it was all well worth sampling. I cannot fault La Bergerie and hope to return again one day.
La Bergerie is a beautifully restored barn in a very rural area surrounded by hilly countryside with vineyards, olive groves and forested areas. The barn has been converted very tastefully and offers very comfortable accommodation with a large kitchen/dining area with a vaulted ceiling; a large comfortable sitting room; a very attractive master 2xdouble bedroom with a partitioned shower room; a further double and a twin room, all ensuite. The kitchen is very generously equipped with the facilities to do serious cooking if required, and reasonably efficient wifi is available. Everything was in good condition and spotlessly clean. Outside is quite spacious and is not overlooked by the hosts, who live in the adjoining (but quite separate) farmhouse. The heated pool is a good size, uniform depth of about 140cm. It is not sheltered so can feel a bit exposed if it is windy. It can be seen from the road so is overlooked but the road is very quiet so this is not really any problem. There is plenty of outside furniture for eating and relaxing. Vinsobres is a delightful little Cotes du Rhone wine producing village about 4Km to the south with a wonderful traditional french cafe where we had a superb meal one evening (check opening times and reserve before going) and Venterol,7Km to the north, also has a cafe where we had an equally good meal - again check times particularly out of season. The hosts were most helpful when we needed help and advice but were in no way intrusive, allowing us to get on on our own otherwise. They provide a comprehensive handbook for the house and surrounds, including guidance for a number of walks, mostly starting from the house - we did several of these and found them excellent - fairly easy walking mainly on tracks with wonderful views of the countryside around. There is also a lot of information regarding local attractions, facilities and restaurants. We would very happily stay here again and would recommended it as a very comfortable house to stay in for 6 or perhaps 8 people, if two couples didn't mind sharing the main bedroom.
We arrived at the property after a long drive through France and were immediately overwhelmed by the views which literally surround the property. Sarah and David were welcoming hosts and the pool and property far better than the pictures suggested. We loved the local walks, the superb wine tasting (keep an eye out for an evening tasting in the local towns and villages as you get a great opportunity to sample the best local vineyards can offer), and the peace and quiet. The accommodation was comfortable and provided everything we could have wished for. Great days out are in easy reach and there is a really comprehensive local information pack kindly collated by the owners. We loved kayaking under the Pont Du Gard in particular. The hosts home faces the opposite way to the barn and it feel like we were completely alone which allowed the children to noisily enjoy the pool in peace. Already planning our next stay here- a sublime holiday where we felt welcomed from the second we arrived.
The home and grounds were perfect. The owners amazing and the town a delight! Nothing could have been done to make the trip better. We will be back!!!!
Stunning location. The barn is very attractively and comfortably furnished, with great attention to detail - beautiful soaps, firelighters for the BBQ, etc. Very well equipped with all mod cons, and David and Sarah are the most delightful and welcoming hosts. Plenty to do in the area, great local walks, and Nimes airport easy to use. We would love to visit again. Highly recommended.
