Mas de la Filoselle, vacation home for 14 people at the foot of the Cevennes mountains

Located in Saint-Martin-de-Valgalgues, this welcoming country house brings it all within your reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 5-minute drive to Cévennes National Park or the 6-minute drive to Musée Bibliotheque Pierre-Andre Benoit (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the deck or patio and outdoor furniture. As for the great indoors, you can try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the WiFi and TV.

A dining area, a BBQ grill, a fireplace, and air conditioning are featured at this 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom rental. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, toilet paper, and soap. No need to pay for a restaurant every night, when you've got an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator on hand, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.

Families with little ones will appreciate the highchair at this property. There are also games for the kids to enjoy, as well as books to help inspire their day.
