Uzes Holiday Villa with Large Private Pool to rent in St Maximin, Provence, France - Petite Maison Reviews

"THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AT MAISON DE MAITRESSE" I had to change my travel plans at the last minute from Sardinia to France...but what a blessing that turned out to be!! I travelled on my own to St Maximin but was collected by Amanda from the train station in Avignon, a soft top silver sports car in the South of France, I was in heaven immediately. I was given all the freedom I wanted or I was welcomed with family and close friends if I chose to join in, which I mostly did!! The best markets in the area are located in Uzes just 10 minutes by car or by bus which is located at the bottom of St Maximin (9.28am to be precise), the markets are Wednesday and Saturdays. If you are very lucky Amanda will tell you where the local flea market is on a Sunday morning, the 9 French vintage crystal champagne glasses for 10 euro are now amongst my most treasured possessions. The entire property is devine, totally gorgeous, I hardly ate out at all, mostly enjoying food from the market or homemade cooking with Amanda and her friends. Luckily the best restaurant in the area is located in St Maximin village so I would absolutely advise to book as soon as you arrive. One of the highlights, apart fromn meeting Amanda and her friends and family would be taking the canoe down the Gardon River to the Pont Du Gard. An absolute must with a picnic lunch, I was on my own that day and totally blissed out. Maison de Maitresse is a very magical place, be prepared to return from your holiday a changed person - I have!! Liz - New Zealand

Gorgeous house, comfy beds. Gregarious hostess. Lots of fun. Relaxing picturesque location and I could even see the Vin Co-operative from my room. Lovely local village with Uzes and Pont Du Gard close by and Avignon is not far away too for a day trip. You do need a car. Don't tell the world - as I want to go back.
