L'Appartement de Seraphin is a completely independent 1 bedroom self-contained accommodation. Located within La Magnanerie de Seraphin, Kristine and Geoff, your hosts , are a couple of French and Australian artists based half of the year in Provence and traveling the world the rest of the time. Access to a shared pool. At home, they speak French and English and they will be happy to recommend the best spots for you to explore during your stay. Available: motorbike garage, secure parking. Facilities: private shower room, shared swimming pool. Services: free bicycle loan. Nearby: swimming in the river, hiking, climbing. The house is an old stone "mas" that had been abandoned for 19 years until the renovation started in September 2016. As much as possible, the old features have been retained, including the magnificent "voutins”, a succession of vaulted ceilings throughout the house. The spaces have been completely opened up with large exposed steel beams and a new polished concrete floor has been poured, giving the old farmhouse a whole new lease of life. Seraphin's flat is adjacent to this owners' living space and has been designed in the same style. It has a completely separate entrance and is located in the southwest corner of the silkworm farmhouse, on the garden level. It is 45 m2 in size and furnished with vintage pieces but with a very contemporary feel. The large grey floor tiles and the very thick stone walls, partly exposed, keep it cool, even during the hot summer months. The fully equipped kitchen with its large workbench surface is ideal for preparing gourmet meals. The living/dining room is very bright, with a large French window opening onto the western terrace of the garden, while the glass front door leads to the southern side of the garden. In this very private part of the garden, you can also have lunch in the shade of the trees and enjoy an aperitif while watching the sunset before dinner. The bedroom is located in a vaulted room, two steps above the living room level. It has a double bed (160cm wide), bedside tables, and lamps. A wall of linen curtains conceals two large wardrobes to store your belongings and suitcases, out of sight during your stay. This room, very serene, invites you to take a nap, to rest, to read, to write, or simply to meditate! A large window opens onto the garden on the south side. The charming adjoining shower room has a large shower and a toilet.
Très bon accueil de Jeff et Kristine avec de nombreux conseils sur les sites à visiter dans la région. Le logement est très au calme et frais (pas besoin de climatisation), les murs de la maison étant très épais. il est bien équipé et décoré avec goût.
Séjour chez kristine et jeff très ressourçant, reposant ds un lieu très joliment aménagé et avec beaucoup de goût. Un bonus important la maison reste fraîche malgré la chaleur. Rien ne manque et ce couple est adorable et aux petits soins. Très bon séjour dans un lieu que l’on quitte à regret quand on vit en ville
The village of Navacelles lies in the Gard region, a 1-hour drive from the world-renown cities of Avignon and Nimes and only 1/2 hour from the marvelous medieval town of Uzes. Other villages worth your visit are the recently selected prettiest village of Lussan (15minutes), and many other character-filled villages such as Barjac (where Anselm Keiffer has his studio), Vezenobres, Aigues Morte, and the ceramics village of Saint Quentin la Poterie.
The Gard department is famous for its colorful food, wines, medieval castles, culture, history, villages and market towns, farm or stone houses full of character.
It is also known for the famed Pont du Gard, a Roman aqueduct on the Gardon River, and for the wonderful wild marshes of the Camargue, not far from Nimes, as well as for the Cevennes National Park.
Beware that our village of Navacelles is not St Maurice de Navacelles, another village located in the Cirque de Navacelles in the department of Herault, 1h and 40 minutes drive from La Magnanerie de Seraphin!
The nearest train station is Ales ( 30 minutes drive). from there you can rent a car if you do not have one already as to really truly enjoy all that the area has to offer, you will need a car. However, there are also many walking tracks to explore the "garrigue" around the village at a slower pace.
自我介绍
I am a French/Australian artist, having now lived in Sydney for 30 years. I split my life between Australia, France and Asia. travelling for art practice, housesitting and of course, fun. Thus I have become a seasoned Airbnb guest all around the world! I am also an Airbnb host at the 2 units I own in these iconic parts of Sydney called Manly and Fairlight which are available for booking for sole use only. In 2016, I acquired an old magnanerie (silkworm breeding farm) in the South of France that needed a lot of TLC. After two years of intensive work, It is now fully renovated inside and I am working on the landscaping this year. Whilst I spend the European summer in my French home, I have a guest's bedroom to welcome Airbnb guests who want to experience sharing an artist home, French/Australian hospitality and the charm of this region. Over the last 15 years, my Australian artist partner and I have been travelling all around the world, spending a lot of time in Europe but also in Asia and in Vietnam in particular where I have derived a lot of my art inspiration displayed at all my properties.
