The Experience
The house is on three storeys and has been restored in excellent taste. Find exposed stone or lime-covered walls in gorgeous colours, clever lighting, spoiling bathrooms, lots of light pouring in and an uncluttered, modern feel with attractive antiques to lend character. Cooks will always have company (and hopefully help) in the big kitchen with plenty of room for prepping, sitting at the table sipping wine, or wandering in and out from the terrace or sitting room.
Both sitting room and kitchen lead out to a terraced area with a raised bed of herbs, a lovely pool and flowering shrubs. You can eat out here at a large table or on the lower courtyard with wooden doors opening onto the street. Outdoors you’ll always find shade or sun and you’re not overlooked. Thick stone walls keep you cool in summer, warm in winter and there’s a wood-burner for really chilly days.
Bedrooms are stylish and comfortable, the whole house is a treat.

The house has been so tastefully renovated. It offers all the amenities required for a holiday. The pool is brilliant. The village has restaurants and bars within walking distance and shopping within a short drive. A sanctuary for peace and tranquillity.

A beautiful house right in the centre of the old town of Vezenobres. It has been tastefully renovated by Jess and Luke to a very high standard whilst retaining much of the charm and character of the original property. We thoroughly enjoyed our week there making good use of the several bars and restaurants less than a 5 minute walk away. The outside area is a mix of terraces for sitting and enjoying the tranquility or catching some rays by the heated pool. A ideal place to stay whilst exploring this lovely part of France and the surrounding area.

My wife and I stayed in this delightful property in the heart of Vézénobres. The house is beautiful and has been tastefully restored to a high standard. It is spacious with large airy rooms and is well equipped. Outside, the large secluded area provides flexible seating on different levels. It also has the added bonus of a heated pool. Vézénobres is a friendly place and has a choice of bars and restaurants with access to a pharmacy and supermarket within a 10 minute walk. The scenery is beautiful and the nearby places are easily accessible. I loved our stay and will definitely be returning.

Location
The neighbourhood
The village, with views to the Cévennes, is quiet but springs to life at certain times. There is a crêperie, an upmarket restaurant, a bistro/bar serving pintxos or bruschetta, an ice cream parlour and a small den offering quiches. Nip down to the boulangerie in the morning for fresh croissants or stock up at the supermarket. Uzès, 30 minutes, has a Wednesday and Saturday market for good local food.
Local points of interest from Luke & Jess
- The views from the converted pigeon tower - we now use it as an office and atelier, with a spare bed - are spectacular. Watch the light change over the village and the Cévennes in the distance.
- The large terrace by the living room abuts an old 'magnanerie', an ancient industrial premise where local artisans once cultivated silk worms for the local silk industry.
- Vézénobres came to prominence as one of the trading posts of the Regordane Way, the ancient route taken by travelers on their way to the Holy Land.
- In the summer evenings you can watch the swifts play in the sky above the garden. The words you see above the blue doors leading to the lower courtyard, "Aig tilleadh nan ainnleag-mòra" mean "At the swifts' return" in Scots Gaelic.
- From the village you can explore so many amazing places. Uzès, Nimes, Avignon, Orange, Montpellier - all are under an hour's drive from the house. Not to mention the Cévennes national park and the Pont-du-Gard, which are also nearby and great for swimming.
- The swimming pool has been built into the medieval 'réstanques', a form of terracing that was used in the area to cultivate steep hills. Beyond them you can see the medieval walls of the old city, which form the boundary of the property.

Introducing
Luke & Jess
Luke (an economist from Glasgow who specialises in helping developing countries) and Jessica (a history teacher and talented artist) are both lovely. They live and work in central Paris but come down here as often as they can. They spent two years renovating the house and are delighted to open it up to guests.
We all enjoyed our stay at The Magnanerie, a group of 5 adults and our small dog. The house was perfect and the layout, garden and pool were ideal for our needs. Fantastic medieval village with a few restaurants and a bar, well located for easy travel to other local towns such as Alès and Uzès. Highly recommend!
