Article originally published in ' Terre de Provence ' :
le Clos des Ocres A guesthouse full of charm
The narrow lane wanders up between the stones warmed by the sun. After a few steps you find yourself in this village house with its terrace full of plants and flowers, overlooking the Château de saint-siffret. Two bedrooms provide a haven for guests looking for a quiet hideaway in the heart of this charming little village in the gard.
Whitewashed vaulted ceilings, shades of red in the lower bedroom, pastel colours in the one upstairs - everything blends perfectly.
Having lived in the Bordeaux region, Nadia et François brunel longed for the varied and shimmering colours and smells of nature.
When they discovered saint-siffret and this house that appeared to be waiting for them, they planted their belongings in this part of South where the sun shines for more than 300 days a year.
Adopted by Janine, who knows all there is to know about the region, they are now familiar with evrey corner of this medieval village with its ochre stones, glowing red in the setting sun.
One on the biggest Provençal market is to be found at Uzès every Saturday morning. François is ready to drive his guests who love markets there so that they do not have the misery of looking for a parking spot on this busy day. In the evening, just down from the house, the Authentic restaurant offers delightful meals resonant with the flavours of the Midi. Top
