Chateau Creme France
Holiday Home Rental Description
Steeped in history, this 18th century château lies in a small town, close to wonderful countryside and the banks of the Rhone. Boasting a beautiful garden, guests can explore the shaded esplanades, spacious terraces, a peaceful courtyard and the pretty fountain.
Château Creme’s interior is just as charming with light and airy living spaces. There are two well equipped kitchens; one on the ground floor near the pool terrace, perfect for whipping up snacks whilst enjoying an afternoon swimming and another leading to the dining room, ideal for preparing evening feasts for family and friends. Each room over the three floors offers is own unique atmosphere combining historical character with modern elegance and comfort. With eight bedrooms on the top floor, there is ample space for everyone, each individual in size and style with four impressive bath or shower rooms.
With two hectares of grounds, there is a large manicured garden with the aroma of summer flowers in the air whilst an inviting swimming pool and sauna provide a wonderful area for fun as well as relaxation in the stunning French sunshine. Enjoy barbecues on the terrace, relax with a local glass of wine and take in the historical ambience surrounding you.
Just outside a small town on the banks of the Rhone, you can wander down to a few shops, bakery and a restaurant or it’s just a little further to the heart of the market town with its fascinating history and picturesque setting on the river.
You are perfectly located for day-trips to Uzès, Avignon and Nimes or head north to the gorges of the Ardèche river (90km), east to Mont Ventoux (75km) or stay closer to home with amazing hikes, idyllic villages and wonderful cycling through the Céze Valley.
Château Crème is located in the outskirts of a small town on the Rhone River, just a ten-minute walk from a supermarket, bakery and restaurant and a little further to the town’s heart with its Saturday morning market and many beautiful historical features.
This is where Provence and Languedoc meet with many wonderful places to visit across the two regions
The nearby town of Bagnols-sur-Cèze (13km), dating back to the 13th century, has even more amenities as well as a Wednesday morning market. The pretty market town of Uzès (40km) is also worthy of a visit with its charming restaurants, lovely boutiques and historical ambience as well as markets on a Saturday and Wednesday morning.
There is also a wealth of delightful villages to discover within half an hour such as Saint-Laurent-des-Arbres, Saint-Victor-la-Coste and La Roque-sur-Cèze. In the heart of the Céze Valley you will find the small village of Goudargues (25km) which is known as the ‘Venice of the Gard’, a wonderful place to relax, dine, sample wines or explore the little shops. Nearby you can walk along one of the many hiking trails, swim or canoe in the River Céze or cycle through the hills discovering idyllic villages far away from mass tourism.
Not forgetting the stunning city of Avignon (46km); full of history, art, culture and life. Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Popes’ Palace, the Bridge of Avignon and the Palace Square are just a few of the marvellous attractions on offer. It is said that once you arrive in Avignon, you will never want to leave…
Wine-lovers have some amazing vineyards to explore across the regions with the Cotes du Rhone wine region to the north and Châteauneuf-du-Pape (33km) heading south to Provence.
You are also perfectly located for day-trips to the gorges of the Ardèche river (90km), Mont Ventoux (75km) to the east as well as the Roman city of Nimes (75km) with the incredible Pont du Gard (40km) en route, the perfect place for hiring canoes or simply having a family picnic in an incredible setting.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
