The gite is tucked away just outside the village of Payzac in a very private and spectacular setting with incredible vistas. We arrived on motorbikes and were greeted on arrival where we were shown to a private courtyard. The gite is at the bottom of fairly steep driveway and hidden from view by the Chateau which is occupied by the owners. The Gite is built on a steep hillside and is therefore looks like a single story building from the courtyard but once in its actually arranged over 3 floors. The stair cases are steep so its not for the faint hearted but the layout does provide plenty of privacy.Each bedroom had a fan, there is no air conditioning, at the time we were there the weather was very hot indeed. If you keep the shutters closed throughout the day its just about bearable at night. The pool area is exclusive to the gite and continues the theme of great views across the Ardeche. The pool is large and really clean, there are plenty of beds etc. Again plenty of steps to navigate en route to the pool which need to be taken slowly.There are shops and supermarkets within a 10-15 min drive. All in all a really lovely place, we would return without hesitation.

We had a marvellous week in Payzac. The house provided everything we needed and more, with stunning views and beautiful landscapes from various spots around the property, including the pool, which we mostly enjoyed after 3 PM. Apart from a few pleasant chats, the owners were largely unobtrusive. The small village has a convenient shop for essentials like baguettes, as well as a charming local restaurant. Some of us spent most of the time relaxing and soaking in the scenery, while others enjoyed cycling through the often tranquil hills. It was truly a wonderful week.

Truly one of the most wonderful holidays we have had - the property could not be more beautiful, and we felt so cared for by our hosts. Every little detail is thought of in the house, and Blandine was exceptionally communicative and friendly. We cannot wait to return!

House was amazing, views were unbelievable and had everything a family could ask for. Plenty to do in surrounding area but highlight was the pool and hot tub.
