The Experience
You will be private, quiet and supremely comfortable on the edge of this remote community-minded village. Built on ancient vaults of the famous Pompignan stone, the house is twisty and full of character, the shower rooms are the latest in design and fittings, you will revel in two gardens, three staircases, two sitting rooms and two kitchens – one inside, the other under the open canopy by the pool; it’s particularly ideal for groups of friends. The Mortiers have done a beautiful conversion of soft ochre-limed walls, linen fabrics, lamps and tables from Morocco (they lived there for 30 years) and some glorious bits of brocante alongside sturdy wooden furniture. The bedrooms are independent of each other so there’s no noise. Walk to the friendly café and bakery then out into the remarkably wild and untouched Cévennes, or visit the magnificent bamboo forest at Anduze, medieval St Guilhem le Désert, lively Montpellier… You will be greeted with a glass of champagne and a generous basket of goodies by thoroughly welcoming owners.

For the second time , we chose to pass the Christmas break, with me whole familly, in this lovely characterful gite; the place is beautiful, nicely decorated. Also the house is very will equiped, which is very appreciable. In the surrounding, we found all the commodity needed, and very nice walks. This was a perfect time and we recommend without any hesitation.

Our multi-generational stay at this property was perfect. The house has great character and provides plenty of privacy for all. The accommodation had everything we hoped for with the outdoor kitchen the most used and the centre of our holiday. The pool was perfect and in almost constant use. Being on the edge of the dramatic and wild Cevenne there was plenty of cycling, hiking and wildlife to see. Tiny mosquitos that attacked us early in our stay were less welcome! Although equipped with A/C, bedrooms become hot at night and opening windows after dark invited bugs in. Staying here recommend!

The Mas Philia is just magnificent! A place to discover that deserves a detour with its four suites, the summer kitchen, the swimming pool, its quality of services, etc., etc., etc. In addition, a very warm welcome from the owners. In short, to try it is to adopt it in a magnificent region which offers us many pleasures and discoveries.

We have just returned from a wonderful 10 days in Pompignan. Patrick and Yvonne welcomed us warmly and allowed us to arrive early. They helped us with renting a car and also let us stay on a bit longer! We were spoilt rotten. Our four children just wanted to be at the house and swim, as August temperatures were around 35 upward. Days spent relaxing by the pool and cooking. Morning walks to the boulangerie. We are missing our breakfast of croissants this morning! Just perfect. Many places to visit in the wild countryside, the city and the Med too. Parfait!
