    “An amazing, relaxing break where you truly escape the stress of daily life!”
    Reviewed November 12, 2014 for a stay in June 2014

    We stayed in Le Clos Massadau for 1 week with our young baby. It's in the most fantastic countryside setting, the property overlooks the large swimming pool and while our baby slept under the olive trees we swam and played outdoor table tennis! There is a gorgeous traditional French bakery a 5 mins drive/cycle away. The owners are so friendly and happy to share all their knowledge of the local area, we were made to feel really welcome. Nimes and Uzes are both about a 20 min drive away and both well worth a visit - particularly for the sights (The arenas and square house in Nimes and Fenestrelle tower in Uzes are particularly impressive) aswell as the traditional relaxed cafes, bars, restaurants and superb markets. Our holiday was so totally relaxing we would love to go back again and unwind!

    Thank you for sharing you thoughts. It's funny how city folks enjoy the countryside and how countryside people love to go to more populated area when they go on holiday. In any case we would love to greet you again!

    We stayed at Le Clos Massadau with our two young children (aged 2 and 3) and had a fantastic time. The gite is spacious and well laid out, the pool was amazing and set overlooking the olive orchard. The setting is beautiful and is peaceful and the owners are very helpful and knowledgeable about the area. There is plenty to do to keep young and older children (and adults) happy and we particularly loved cycling through the fields to the various bakeries in the area or stroll around the market and town in Uzes. Bigger attractions are not far away and well worth the trip. We would highly recommend!
