About this house rental

La Clède is a charming 250 year old property set in its own delightful large garden (2000SqM) with views over the stunning countryside in the Southern Ardeche and accessed via a paved road that winds up through the vineyards. Ribes consists of around 20 enchanting hamlets in this award winning area, set amidst the Parc Naturel Règional des Monts d‘Ardèche. The highly regarded restaurant La Cueille is just 350M away and is set on a stunning terrace. The property also has the benefit of being close to the river Beaume 3km with many bathing opportunities.

With its Mediterranean climate Spring arrives early, the Summer is long and the autumn months divine. There is a large covered sun terrace for alfresco dining. The delightful well-established terraced garden offers an endless choice of spots to sit in the sun or cool off in the shade, all with plenty of seating.

La Clède has undergone a major refurbishment programme and is tastefully modernised whilst making use of the natural features and materials. The fully equipped kitchen is complete with a dishwasher and a large fridge freezer to help make self-catering as easy as possible. All bedrooms are en-suite including a high end bathroom. Wifi is available and there is plenty of private parking in front of the property for two vehicles.

Ribes is located on a sunny promintary close to the town of Joyeuse with its weekly well renowned market. The river Beaume is a short distance away and is great for splashing about with the children or simply relaxing on one of the small sandy beaches.

The area around Ribes has many beautiful walks starting from the property, cycling both on and off road is simply superb, bike hire is available nearby. Canoeing/kayaking down the Ardeche Gorge is very popular with an easily accessible, but far less commercialised start point of Balazuc, a well renowned "beau village".

Sensational house and lovely hosts. Quiet, well looked after and thoroughly relaxing. Wonder why we haven't been there earlier. Stayed with 3 kids and didn't miss anything. Amazing garden and surroundings. If you are into ardechoise rosé wine enjoying and overlooking a gorgeous green valley from the laid back terrasse with olive trees providing shade and the only thing you hear is the church bell, this is the place.

Wonderful landscape and place to stay .. holiday together and still enough space for all family members when wanted, inside and outside the house - for teenagers + parents. Everything is like in the description and more...The house is spacious and tastefully decorated, well equipped and clean. During our stay it was hot but we found several nice places just a short drive away at the river to take a refreshing bath or even swim.. Very nice and easy communication with advice and support from Julie and Mike. Thanks for everything!

The property was well equipped and the owner, Mike, was very helpful and made us feel welcome. The garden was enjoyed by all the family and we had some great days out to nearby sights.
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2018
Mike, the owner, really made us feel welcome to his manor. Unlike many other holiday homes, this place appears to have a gentle finishing touch which is a the same time as practical as one's own house. The "kiwi" terrace provides a smashing view over the medieval hamlet, its church and the green valley. No need for a swimming pool here, as the nearby river (10 minutes drive) offers truly scenic and quiet bathing possibilities without the hustle of the crowded Ardeche river near Vallon Pont d'Arc (at least in August). We stayed here for 2 weeks in August 2018 and loved every minute of it, despite the occasional storm, thunder and heatwave in the first week. We are keen cyclists and brought our own racing bikes from the Netherlands. Mike is very helpful in pointing out various rides to be made from Ribes, ranging from 30 to 100km. Highly recommendable are the hiking tours in the surroundings as well as the famous canoe trips either from Balazuc (12 km) or Charmes (24 km). For those with a less active life style this house offers possibilities to enjoy a relaxed holiday in a well kept garden full of separate terraces. If you enjoy shopping there are various markets throughout the region, easily to reach within 20 minutes by car.
