Charming air-conditioned cottage "the cabin" and its private and independent garden

The charming cottage "la cabane" is located in the green park of a house of character in the center of Sommières, a pretty medieval city between Nîmes and Montpellier.
The historic route that leads to the castle through the shaded alleys and squares will make you discover a rich and varied heritage.
Ideally located for visiting the region (Les Cévennes, Camargue ...), increasing the number of sporting activities (horse riding, kayaking, tree climbing ...), and cultural activities (Avignon, jazz in Junas, Arles ...)

"The cabin" is located at the entrance of the park. You will appreciate its original shape, its brightness and its views of the wooded garden.
"The cabin" consists of a living-dining-kitchen area, a double bedroom and a spacious bathroom.
The sofa bed in the living room can accommodate 2 additional people knowing that access to the bathroom is in the master bedroom.
An outdoor patio sheltered under the vine and equipped with a barbecue, a plancha and a garden table is at your disposal.
The accommodation is equipped with an air conditioner, which is very significant in summer.

An Amazing Find
The Cabine is set in the grounds of the late writer's house, and is perfect as a base to explore the area. Yet just two minutes walk to the shops, bars and restaurants. The cabine is fully equiped and we could not have asked for more. The Capine has a private garden with sun loungers, bbq and table to eat beneath the over hanging vines. Such a delight to stay here. Ghislaine could not have been a more helpfull, and accommodating host. This is a delight and we will most certainly book again next year. Perfect retreat in the South of France just 20 miles from the coast.

Magnificent
We had a super stay at the property. It has all you need for a very comfortable stay. It is located in a garden of the house once owned by Laurence Durrell - behind secure gates..and only a short walk from the town centre. Our host Ghislaine was friendly and helpful and even provided an apple pie and tomatoes from the garden during our stay...we will stay here again if we are in the area

Great cottage in a charming town
I stayed two weeks here. This cabin is ideally located just outside of the main gate into the town of Sommieres. It is on a lovely property with lots of big trees and parking inside of the property gate. Easy to walk to the big Intermarche supermarket and to bakeries. The cabin is perfect for a single or couple. It has kitchenette with everything you need and a clothes washing machine in the bathroom. The outside sitting area (pergula with vines) is perfect for breakfast and evenings. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. You do need to make sure that you don't leave crumbs around (ants were incredibly fast to discover them), but it isn't a real problem. I happened to stay in the first week of August when the local horses & bulls festival is on and the cottage was perfectly located to be able to take in the activities. There is also a summer wine festival every Monday evening in the city marketplace.

Bijou caché
Un lieu de séjour idyllique. Niché dans un coin d'un trés beau grand jardin, avec une cuisine d"été abritée sous les vignes. Un havre de paix mais a quelques pas de tous les principaux commerces et du centre-ville historique. Nous avons été chaleureusement accueillis par des hôtes charmants et nous avons hâte d'y retourner l'année prochaine.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent place! Excellent location!
I have stayed here in the cabin a few times. It's perfect. Great location - just a short over the Roman bridge puts you in old town Sommières. The cabin is on a private property, behind a high wall and automatic gate. This makes the cabin very quiet, relaxing and safe. You will receive keys for the cabin and gate as well as a fob for the electric gate opener. In the cabin, everything functions perfectly. A very comfortable bed, a good little kitchen with everything you need, a bathroom with hot shower and a clothes washing machine. (There is a line outside, beside the cabin for hanging & drying clothes.) The hostess is incredibly gracious and welcoming. I very happily recommend it is VRBO rental. 🤗👍🏻

Perfect for a couple seeking a quiet, secluded and charming “Cabin”in a beautiful garden.
We were very comfortable in The Cabin and Ghislaine was a charming host. Everything worked well, the air conditioning was a real blessing during the 36C Drought of 2022 and there is a delightful BBQ area for outdoor dining (but don’t forget the insect repellent!). Thank you Ghislaine - you made us feel very welcome.

Fantastic holiday
Madame Bergé is wonderful. She gave us loads of information about the locality and even arranged for her grand daughter to come round and speak to us in English. The location is amazing. Would thoroughly recommend and we will be returning.

Fabulous caban in a secure and private garden
We visited Sommieres for a wedding in a nearby chateau. This caban was perfect - a one off design with everything we needed. It had a secure private garden within the large grounds of the hosts - she and her family were lovely and welcoming and we felt like special guests rather than paying customers! It went up to 41C during our stay so the caban air con was a welcome feature. Sommieres is s stroll away across the old bridge and whilst small has multiple restaurants, bars and cafes. It couldn’t have been nicer. Thank you to our wonderful hosts

Perfect location and wonderfully comfortable!
I love this place! (2nd time staying here.) Ghislaine is a wonderful host. The cabin has all the desired conveniences, including air conditioning. And it is centrally located just a 3 minute walk to Old Town, restaurants, stores, etc. I especially like that the cabin is located on the grounds of a private residence, secured behind locked gates. The cabin is peaceful, clean and comfortable. Parking is located on the property, inside the gated area. I look forward to returning here again. It's the best place to stay in Sommières!

I loved this place! It's a very nice "writer's cottage" with everything you need: kitchenette, bathroom with shower & toilet, very comfortable bed, etc. Ideal from for couple Les or individuals. It's a short walk to old Town center and there's a convenient full-size grocery store just couple blocks away. Highly recommend!
