We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same trip can have different views!

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Arriving after a drive through the incredible, untouched forested mountain scenery of the Cevennes national park to the beautiful little village of St Andre Valbourne. Spending days in the pristine rivers in the local surrounding area, and finally visiting the Ardeche valley about 2 hours drive away in blue skied sunshine.
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
The drive through France is long, Consider taking the TGV and hiring a car. Montpellier is only 6 hours from London Kings Cross station!
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?
We enjoyed local produce, including fresh eggs from Sharon and Alex's hens on our first day. The gite was well insulated, cool in the day and warm at night. We felt close to nature the entire time.
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
It makes for a lovely week's break, but be ready for a fair amount of driving if you want to go to other valleys. I'd love to stay longer if I could and discover more of the Cevennes. It's a stunning area.
