About this property
Luxury house in 15 acres of land with large private pool
Set back approximately 100 metres from the road and within 15 acres of private fenced land, this beautiful 18th century house is peaceful and secluded. The spacious interior and large separate pool house allows large groups to spend a holiday together without ever feeling crowded.
Inside, the house is furnished to a very high standard with a Lacanche oven, American style fridge freezers and a large amount of kitchen equipment for guests who enjoy cooking. There is a wide screen TV, HiFi stereo system, WiFi Internet - fibre - and a large selection of books and videos.
Outside there are two separate patios for eating and relaxation. The pool is large (15m x 7m - heated from April until the end of October) and has an automatic safety cover with security clips. Adjacent to the pool is the pool house, which provides additional ensuite accommodation and a large lounge with comfortable seating.
Within the 15 acres of land there are there are also substantial recreational facilities including swings, a trampoline with safety net, table tennis table.
During the summer months of July and August our checkin and checkout days are Saturday to Saturday. The pool is heated from April through to the end of October, but can be heated at other times for an additional charge.
Things to do... Food :- The nearest shops are the local Carrefour and petrol station at Vezenobres. This is open on Sunday mornings. Small local shops and bakers are in the next village at Mejannes les Ales approx 5km. Ales is the nearest town (9km or 13min drive) and has a range of shops and restaurants including a large hypermarket (Cora). Closer to the house there is a fabulous restaurant (Auberge des Voutins) which always has a superb menu.
Locally there is a rich cultural history and plenty for those who want to explore. There are multiple historic sites close by including the Market towns of Uzes and Anduze and well as the Roman city museums and amphitheatre at Nimes. The nearby cave systems at Trubuc are fantastic, with regular guided tours.
There are two nearby aerial walkways (high ropes and zip wires) which are great fun for both children and adults. Alternatively canoeing from Collias takes you right underneath the historic Pont de Gard along the river Gard.
The nearest beach is 'La Grande Motte' is just over an hours drive away and is 10km of gently sloping sandy beach with sand dunes. The beach cafes offer excellent food and there is municipal parking next to the dunes.
For the more energetic there is paragliding at Seynes, rafting in the Cevenne and the Ardeche, and a national go-karting track in the nearby town Ales. The local area is great for cycling (both road and offroad) and there is a local horse riding school for those who enjoy riding.
There is a fumade or natural spring spa resort in a town close by. Golf is available at Nimes and Uzes and in the Winter skiing is possible in the Cevennes at Mount Lozere.
For those who prefer to simply chill out and relax the house and surrounding land is completely private and tranquil.

What an amazing property!! Beautifull well equiped house with large bedrooms. Fantastic garden, with a large dining area and a majestic pool that we and the children loved. Overall an outstanding family-villa.
Very nice place for our holiday! We enjoyed the hugh gardens and the heated pool, although the weather was quiet cold and rainy.
The beds and bathrooms were great. an the whole house ist very well equipped
The best was Cedric. He helped us realy a lot..
Thanks for all.
A fabulous pool, nice surroundings and a very helpful owner who was really quick to respond to any question we had.
However, there were quite some mishaps during our week. In the description it is stated there is aircondition. This was the worst air conditioner we have ever seen. This needs to be hung out through a window and is extremely noisy and is not doing its job, i.e to cool down the room. We couldn’t get the temperature lower than 24 degrees Celsius and with feverish old parents this was a nightmare.
Furthermore, the house is old and not well looked after. Cabinet doors in the kitchen are hanging very loosely and we had several electrical short cuts which made fridges and freezers (and washing machines) stop. To sort this out we needed to call the neighbor many times which was a bit disturbing.
Finally, since we are a family who loves to cook and was looking forward to using the grill in the garden it was rather irritating to have to clean it or pay 200 euros to have it cleaned. We left it in a perfectly clean condition but felt this should be included in the somewhat hefty price for this house.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay but would hesitate to recommend this house to people we know.
So much more than the summarised description. We kept finding new delightful features that made our holiday so enjoyable and memorable. The location is not easy to find but so well worth it.

A fantastic house for our party of 10 adults and 8 children
This is a lovely place for adults and children alike. The pool was a great hit with all. And we kept discovering new things to do. So many games toys etc for all ages. All the bedrooms have a bathroom and there is plenty of indoor and outdoor dining space for our group of 18.

Wow! Great place! Beautiful well maintained and exceptionally well equipped house and garden.
Just the right amount of rooms and well ordered space, thank you.
We especially appreciated having the trampoline in the shade which kept our 3 young grand children amused for ages!
Fabulous pool and garden.
Thank you

Home away from home
Mas de Gardies is a stunning retreat tucked away in South of France near Ales. I've keep going back, always with a large group of friends, to make the most of the beautiful pool, sunshine, croquet, beers, candlelit al fresco dining til late with local wine, and the multitude of cosy rooms indoors. It's easy to forget that the nearby towns are also charming, if you make it outside the grounds!
I can't recommend it highly enough!

Just Perfect
This was a family holiday for 16. It was a fabulous place to meet and share time together.
The house was more than we could have hoped for, it lacked for nothing. The salt water swimming pool was also a great hit with the children ( and some of the bigger children !!! )
A very friendly & helpful caretaker ( sorry, his name escapes me)visited us daily. He was also great.
We would all love to return. Thank you
We were extremely satisfied with our stay in Monteils. The house is very well equipped and has everything you could possibly need. The spacious kitchen made it easy to prepare meals for our group, and the large outdoor dining table in the shade was perfect, especially since the weather was very warm during our stay.The large swimming pool and the lovely pool house were also great assets and contributed greatly to our enjoyment of the property.The beds in the bedrooms are generally a bit smaller, which is quite common in France, so that was not an issue for us.Our cycling team has been organizing cycling trips for over 30 years, staying in many different houses and accommodations throughout Europe. We can honestly say that this is the best house we have ever rented.Thank you for providing such a wonderful place to stay. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable group holiday.
Die Unterkunft war absolut hervorragend! Ein Traum von Aufenthalt für große Familien. Wir waren hier mit 10 Erwachsenen und 5 Kindern. Der Pool war riesig. Einfach genügend Platz und Raum im Haus und drumherum. Herrlich! Kann ich bestens empfehlen.
Maison très spacieuse, lumineuse et agréable. Grande piscine bien chauffée. Tout correspondait à l'annonce et convenait à notre grande famille : salon cosy, grande table de salle à manger, cheminée, nombreuses chambres bien décorées et jeux d'extérieur pour les enfants.
Excellent séjour en famille. Très belle propriété, propre et bien entretenue. Le cadre est magnifique et au calme.Nous étions 3 générations (de 5 à 72 ans), la conception de cette propriété nous permet de partager un séjour tous ensemble sans avoir l'impression de se gêner.La piscine est superbe et sécurisée par un volet rétractable.Tout cela nous donne envie de revenir et nous recommandons sans hésitation !
Goede communicatie over inchecken, uitleg daar waar nodigAlles wat je nodig hebt en nog veel meer aanwezig. Rustig afgelegen, heerlijke tuin en zwembad. We hebben hier genoten!!!!!

La maison était bien. Super endroit à la hauteur de nos attentes.
Très bien accueillis par le gérant. Idéal pour 16 personnes ! Maison très lumineuse : grands espaces communs, chambres agréables avec salle d'eau attenante. Belle terrasse ombragée. Magnifique piscine avec pool house convivial. Vaste parc arboré.
Seul bémol : il manque 1 WC hors salle de bain au rez de chaussée.
Nous avons passé un excellent week-end entre amis début octobre. Nous recommandons fortement ce gîte pour des vacances en famille ou entre amis.
Es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt - das Haus sowie die Umgebung sind aussergewöhnlich. Die Betreuung vor Ort, sowie mit dem Besitzer waren unkompliziert und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir können uns einen zukünftigen Aufenthalt sehr gut vorstellen. Herzlichen Dank!
We hebben genoten van deze mooie villa in een prachtige grote tuin en een heerlijk groot zwembad. Ook de eigenaar Tobi en de buurman Cedric waren heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Dank voor dit heerlijke verblijf!
Très belle maison avec beaucoup de caractère. La très grande piscine chauffée est un vrai bonus. Tout est à disposition pour des activités : jeux de société, Ping Ping, pétanque. Les chambres avec leurs sanitaires respectifs apportent beaucoup de confort. La maison présente également l’avantage d’être proche des sites à visiter : Uzes, la bambouseraie d’Anduze, le pont du Gard,……
En quelques mots: nous avons passé un séjour enchanteur
