Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Ardèche

Due to personal circumstances we had to rearrange this holiday 2 times, of which Remy was very understanding. We booked the villa based on how well the photos looked but were really not ready for just how much better the place was in reality! Le Magnanerie is tucked quietly away in a totally idyllic spot in a gorgeous old French hamlet, boasting the most impressive westerly views across the private pool of the Cévennes, with stunning sunsets. The covered outside area is spacious and perfect to escape the direct summer sun, and the thick stone building is naturally cool. Comfortably set over 3 pretty floors with portable air conditioning in the loft bedroom area. Kids bunk beds are perfectly placed and even though everything is wooden, nothing creaks. Local agent Deborah was very helpful and after driving from the UK, we were pleasantly surprised to have had our best family holiday to date here! We rarely return to holiday destinations, however we will certainly be coming back. Merci

The house is perfect, and very well designed, perfect for our family of 5. The big plus is the private pool, secured with a space with deckchair, seat. The outdoor terrace was much more, and with direct view to watch the teenagers in the pool. Another positive point is the view of the hills and donkeys. Very close to the center of Vallon by car or on foot by secure path. And a 5-minute walk from an ice cream parlor for a snack!

Thank you Frédéric for a lovely stay. Your home was immaculate and very beautiful and we wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you again from the Aussie travellers Lynette and Martin & Nicky and Gerry

Kevin et Laetitia’s place is as close to “heaven on earth” as I’ve encountered in a long time! I am looking forward to trying to come back for a longer stay ASAP, it was absolutely incredible and as hosts, they were wonderful to work with. The interior is accommodating and thoughtfully designed down to the smallest details and the exterior is a peaceful, divine oasis of comfort and pleasure. The surrounding areas are easy to access and everything was 10/10 wonderful! Merci beaucoup, Kevin & Laetitia!

It was incredible. We stayed for 8 nights and I wish it was longer. A beautiful and peaceful place to stay.

This truly is a magical place to stay! It would be worth it for the beautiful terrace and views alone but the whole house is up to the same standard and has a Zen like atmosphere. We had a week of superb weather and really fell in love with the Ardèche. Great hikes start right at the house. Mirjam and Benjamin are very welcoming and professional hosts. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this rental and hope to return!

Very good stay in Natacha's place. The place is very quiet and cozy, it feels very good. The accommodation is ideally located for visiting the area. There's even a hike that starts from Lanas to visit Balazuc and Voguë.

A very pleasant week. The accommodation is as described and Fabrice took the time to give us good advice. A very good location for getting to the different spots that Ardèche offers (hiking, sightseeing, kayaking etc.)

A great stay, thank you to the very flexible and friendly host! I would definitely recommend this place ☺️

An inconspicuous apartment. Not promising much judging by the entrance. However, it turns out to be very stylish and warm, even though it is made of cold stone. The host's welcome was very nice. The location in the village, so the bigger the car, the harder it is to maneuver and park, but in return, you can walk everywhere in 5 minutes.

4.75 out of 5 stars. A very lovely and peaceful rental perfect for solo travelers or couples. The air conditioning was much appreciated. The bed mattress was a bit thin and firm for me, but I still slept pretty well. I wish there were curtains on the bedroom windows to block out more of the early morning light, but the mini blinds on the exterior window worked fine. The neighborhood is busy during the day, but this rental is tucked away & quiet. You will have to carry your bags up two flights of stairs. The shower was very nice with a longer glass divider, so you won’t have shower water spilling on to the floor like at so many rentals. The bath towels were a bit rough and could use an upgrade to softer ones. The kitchen had everything you need, including paper towels. Jeremy was extremely generous in his communication and let me check in a bit earlier and leave a bit later. Of course that can’t be promised. I would definitely stay here again. This is a special place. Merci, Jeremy

Very functional apartment, impeccable cleaning, perfect for a stay with family or friends.

Friendly host, quiet apartment and very good location!

We had a great time at this place with great views. We also enjoyed the garden with its different places to sit and enjoy another angle/environment.

The accommodation is as described and of high quality. The decoration and layout are on top. Jean-François is welcoming and responsive to our requests.

Gorgeous apartment that is so central and great for exploring Nimes. Rooms were spotless and really comfortable and spacious. Great for larger groups as there were six of us sharing. Amaury was very helpful with any queries we had and recommended some fantastic local restaurants. Only thing that’s surprised us was there is only one toilet which wasn’t clear from the description.

Excellent accommodation: very well located for visiting Nîmes, well arranged, cozy and very beautiful. Beautiful terrace, comfortable bedding. I would highly recommend it!

I would recommend the accommodation, clean, tastefully furnished and well-equipped. I'll come back on my next visit to the area. Thank you.

Zahra El Kassimi was very kind and helpful. The apartment had everything we needed for the ten days we were in Avignon. The apartment was very centrally located, close to the old papal residence and just a 5 minute walk from the main street. The apartment had 2 air conditioners, one in the living room and one in the bedroom. It was over 30 degrees in Avignon, but the apartment was cool and nice. Everything we needed worked perfectly in the apartment and we had a great time. We would recommend this apartment at Mrs. El Kassimi's to anyone visiting Avignon, who wants to stay centrally and have a short distance to almost everything in the old town. Lise and Bjørner

A wonderful and memorable stay! The studio is still as charming and pleasant, very well equipped and comfortable. The spring light bathes the space in a beautiful softness, we like to stay and rest there, after a hike or simply to recharge. Véronique and Pascal are perfectly friendly and very attentive hosts. It's a real pleasure to stay with them. The Ardèche Gorges are nearby, as are many hikes, caves and quaint villages. Nia is a gem. We recommend it, and we'll be back. 😉✨

The listing exactly matches the listing. Tastefully decorated accommodation, quality interior, complete utensils, and quality of amenities and materials. The accommodation is really close to everything. Shops, supermarkets, restaurants, tours… As for Lucie, very responsive. I thank her for everything.

We stayed one night at Coralie and Romain's place. The bedding is very comfortable, the apartment spacious and quiet. I've read some comments about the VMC. If you close the doors to the bathroom and toilet, you don't hear it. We had a very good exchange with Coralie, who was very hospitable. There are all kinds of shops nearby; Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is a charming little town. I would recommend Coralie and Romain's place.

This (too short) stay filled us with happiness. We were first very pleasantly surprised by Marie's attentive and warm welcome, then won over by the comfort of the apartment and the garden (with swimming pool). Special mention for the flexibility of the hosts, thank you for this human experience! We'll be back :-) Noé and Lou

We had a great time in this beautiful area. Very nice apartment and very functional. Thank you to Laurence and Philippe for their kindness. Patricia
