    Description

    At the heart of the Cévennes valleys, on the outskirts of the Cevennes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Mas de Sauvelongue is a superb estate of nearly 8 hectares whose buildings are classified by the Heritage Foundation.

    At the end of a 6 km path between the chestnut trees, the property is high, with a superb view of the French valley and the village of Saint-Germain-de-Calberte. It is ideal to come and relax with family or friends, in the city and in total immersion in nature. The sunsets are fantastic and the nights filled with stars. Tents and a huge trampoline are available for those who wish to sleep on the benches (terraces) under the stars.


    We welcome you in the countryside in a beautiful stone house with all the necessary comfort. If you like the nature, the calm, the authenticity, the fires of chimney, you will love this little corner of paradise.

    Au coeur des vallées cévenoles, en périphérie du Parc National des Cévennes, inscrit au patrimoine Mondial de l'Unesco, le mas de Sauvelongue est un superbe domaine de près de 8 hectares dont les bâtiments sont classés par la Fondation du Patrimoine.

    Au bout d'un chemin de 6kms entre les châtaigniers, la propriété est située en hauteur, avec une vue superbe sur la vallée française et sur le village de Saint-Germain-de-Calberte. Elle est l'endroit idéal pour venir se ressourcer en famille ou entre amis, loin de la ville et en totale immersion dans la nature. Les couchers de soleil sont fantastiques et les nuits remplies d'étoiles. Des tentes et un immense trampoline sont disponibles pour ceux qui souhaitent dormir sur les bancels (terrasses) à la belle étoile.

    Autour de cette extraordinaire maison de vacances, la nature reprend régulièrement ses droits et nous devons entretenir et débroussailler les alentours. Il y a toujours beaucoup de choses à faire dans ses vieux mas cévenols, construction de murs en pierres sèches, nettoyage d'arbres, débroussaillage, nettoyage des vieux murs qui soutiennent les terrasses ...etc.
    Nous vous accueillons en pleine nature dans une belle maison en pierres sèches avec tout le confort nécessaire. Si vous aimez la nature, le calme, l'authenticité, les feux de cheminée vous allez adorer ce petit coin de paradis.
