Wow what an amazing property, pool and the location. It was just perfect for us. The owner is very kind and welcoming and allowed us to charge our Tesla EV in her garage, which made a big difference as we didn’t need to factor in stops to charge on day trips. Despite the pool not being heated, the hot weather meant the pool was warm enough after the initial plunge. Our kids spent hours in the pool.
The property is a 7km/10mins drive to Les Vans which has a couple of big supermarkets and loads of great affordable restaurants, so you need to factor in you will need a car to access shops as there are no shops within realistic walking distance.
Food is cheaper than the UK and local fruit and veg. quality is amazing. There were 2 markets in Les Vans during our stay, one on Tuesday night and Saturday day, both were packed with sellers offering local produce and well worth a visit.
Everyone we encountered was very friendly. There were very few other English tourists, so this a very much a secret French getaway destination, but everyone we spoke to had some english language skills, that were generally better that our school days French, so we had not problem ordering in restaurants etc.
As there were only 5 of us, so we were not given access to all the bedrooms as shown the photos, so we had to use the attic bedroom which has very low roof beams and gets very warm at night. The single AC unit in the living room worked great for the 2 bedrooms on that floor, but didn’t cool this attic room at all. We had to close all the windows otherwise monster hornets would fly in during the evening. I would suggest adding insect/mosquito nets to the a few of the windows then the villa would stay cool naturally.
The only thing that was really let us down was the abysmal WiFi which was advertised as 50/50Mbps, which it clearly isn’t. We measured a mere 1.25Mbp/s download and only 0.5Mbp/s upload which coupled with very poor location of the access point by the front door, resulted in very little signal in the main parts of the house and nothing in the bedrooms. This meant we had to use our 4G mobile data plans which also had a pretty poor signal, so we struggled with Internet connectivity during our stay.
The 50/50Mb/s Wi-Fi is simply not true and should be changed in the advert as it’s one of the key reasons we booked this property.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay and we may go back again, but I will bringing my Starlink Internet dish with me next trip.

Lovely large house located nearby the river with a beautiful view on the hills. Ideal for swimming and jumping in the water. Kitchen has all tools, but note that it is on the first floor, so you have to bring the meals downstairs. Daniela was very kind and we could also use the kitchen next to the terrace. We had a very nice holiday and also loved the local market in Le Vans in the evening.

Aktivurlaub und Entspannung
Wunderschönes ruhig gelegenes Haus, gute Ausstattung, sehr nette Vermieterin, war stets bemüht. Leider kein WLAN... perfekte Lage um aktiv zu sein, wandern, paddeln, Märkte besuchen, aber auch zum Entspannen am tollen Pool!

Séjour très agréable !
Nous avons passé un séjour très agréable. La propriété est très bien placée, la maison très propre et conforme aux photos. Un grand merci à la propriétaire particulièrement charmante avec laquelle nous avons passé de bons moments. Nous ne manquerons pas d'y retourner si nous sommes de passage dans la région.

Séjour en Ardèche
Grande maison chaleureuse avec très belle vue sur la vallée mais cette situation isolée a aussi ses inconvénients (pas de wifi et réception télé très mauvaise)

Séjour des plus agréables
Merci à Danielle, Propriétaire de la maison, pour son accueil très chaleureux et sa disponibilité.
La maison est très propre et fonctionnelle. Elle possède un grand cachet que l’on retrouve dans toute la région.
La région est magnifique avec des visites et randonnées de toutes beautés .
Je recommande.

Ruime en rustige woning
Zeer ruime woning. Spijtig dat raam in de woonruimte niet groter is om het prachtig zicht beter te kunnen waarderen.
Aangenaam ruim en afgesloten terras op hoogte met mooi zicht op de kerk. Nadeel is dat terras en leefruimte op verschillend niveau liggen.

Très bon choix
Très belle maison de pierre, belle vue et magnifique piscine. Bien équipée sauf peut-être en matériel de cuisine mais nous aurions du le demander. À deux pas de la rivière et du centre équestre. La propriétaire est très sympathique et à l’écoute. Manquait le Wifi pour qui doit travailler pendant les congés...Je recommande.

La gentillesse de l'hôtesse n'a d'égale que la beauté du site.

Deceptif
Une location qui est en réalité un appartement dans un ensemble de plusieurs logements qui partagent la piscine pour un prix largement supérieur à ceux pratiqués dans la région.

Nous avons passé en famille une semaine en avril 2011 aux Salelles. Le gîte est idéalement situé, au calme avec une très belle vue, spacieux et bien meublé, proche de nombreuses balades, visites, activités ( baignade, canöé, rando à cheval...). Les propriétaires sont accueillants, leur miel et huile d'olive maison sont délicieux. Les enfants ont entre autre adoré la piscine; j'ai beaucoup aimé discuter avec le propriétaire dont les conversations sont enrichissantes. Séjour donc très agréable, à refaire....ou à faire !
