Location

The gîte sits at the end of a wooded lane, on the hillside facing Balazuc, a medieval village perched above the Ardèche river. Peace and quiet are guaranteed, close to the Ardèche gorges, the Chauvet 2 cave and the Aven d’Orgnac. Canoeing down the river, hiking, villages of character and fine restaurants, including a Michelin-starred one: Luc is happy to share his favourite addresses to help you plan your stay.
