Location and surroundings.
The house is located in the Cévennes (in the Gard department and at the crossroads with the departments of Lozère and the Ardèche). This region is characterized by the varied and unspoiled landscape with mountains (including Mont Lozère), vast forests, grassy plains, streams, imposing river valleys with caves and deep gorges, and the countless picturesque small villages (the Cévennes is on the UNESCO World Heritage List). In the immediate vicinity of the house there are the villages of Concoules (5 km), Génholac (10 km) and Villefort (10 km; with, among other things, a large lake and a beach). The location is also ideal for green tourism and sporting/adventurous outdoor activities such as hiking (with a donkey), cycling/mountain biking, climbing, canoeing, canyoning, and horseback riding.
