Lovely house with terrace in the Gard Discover this luminous stone village house, nestling in a pretty, quiet lane in the small village of St Laurent-de-Carnols. With its pretty courtyard and magnificent panoramic terrace, refreshed by the thickness of its walls and decorated with great taste, it will be ideal for a pleasant stay in the Gard. On the edge of the majestic Valbonne forest, you'll be well placed to explore this department, which stretches from the beaches of the Mediterranean to the mountains of the Cévennes. Start in Goudargues, 5km away, nicknamed "the Venice of the Gard" for its shady canals, shops, restaurants and large weekly market. Don't miss the extraordinary site of the Sautadet waterfalls and the magical hilltop villages of Cornillon and La Roque sur Cèze. Discover the trails on foot, on horseback or by bike, and the Gorges de la Cèze by canoe. Visit caves, medieval villages and Roman remains. The Gard offers a wonderful range of things to discover, from towns with a rich heritage such as Nîmes, Uzès, Aigues-Mortes and Beaucaire, to the famous Pont du Gard, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the wild landscapes of the Camargue. Gastronomy is not to be outdone, with Vins de Sable and Vallée du Rhône wines and excellent local produce. Between vineyards, olive groves and almond trees, let yourself be lulled by the chirping of the cicadas, soak up the sun and smell the flowers. Don't hesitate to book this beautiful holiday home in the south of France!
