Inspiring Apartment In Barjac With Terrace Views Over The Cevennes Mountains

Originally a silk-weaver's house, Maison Martinet lies in the picturesque medieval heart of Barjac next to the chateau. It has been sympathetically modernised while maintaining its original rustic stone features. There are 2 spacious ensuite bedrooms and a relaxing living room and kitchen. The panoramic roof terrance is the ideal place to dine or watch the sun set over the beautiful Cevennes mountains. With its bustling weekly market and famous open-air antique markets twice a year, Barjac has a reputation as a cultural centre as well as being at the heart of French organic food. There are busy restaurants throughout the town which is also surrounded by some of the most scenic swimming rivers in France. It forms a great base for visits to Avignon, Uzes and the Ardeche.

Daydreaming of Ownership!
We had the pleasure of enjoying this beautiful apartment for a week in July of 2018. First off, Alan was great! He has a neighbor on site who takes care of the visitors, and she was also wonderful. The place itself is everything and more than the photos show. We felt immediately at home, so much so that we cooked in most nights - including making homemade duck confit from the butcher! Fantastic and easy! The apartment is so very charming and definitely made us dream of owning something similar some day! For future visitors, the beds are both comfy, the linens are nice, there are stand-up fans for warm days and nights, the kitchen is very well equipped, and there are many English language videos to enjoy if you need a rest from your travels. It was just the two of us, so we had lots of space to spread out and enjoy, but it would be equally comfortable for two couples or a couple with children. The outdoor patio is the cherry on top - so peaceful and relaxing. Parking was not a problem at all, nor was shopping. There are a few butchers/bakeries in town, plus a pretty decently sized market on the edge of town, which is walk-able. We enjoyed a few simple pizza dinners as well as some amazing lunches in the town's little streets. All good! The town itself is a great attraction, just wander and get lost on the cute little lanes. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful. The weekly market was a good one, with lots of vendors and things to see and taste. It was easy drives to canoe and cave locations. This is just a little gem of a location. Thank you to Alan for sharing your space with us. We hope to be back someday to recreate the wonderful week we enjoyed. Until then, our memories are truly dreams come true! Steve and Cori Slater California, USA

Great apartment. Great senic village.
The apartment was very comfortable, well equipped and located in a wonderful picturesque and friendly village. The only issue worth mentioning was that since this trip was our first trip to Provence and we found Barjac was not centrally located enough in order to easily visit the major sights. Everything was at least a 1 hr. drive. The exception to this were several of the wonderful vineyard estates in close proximity to town. The only other issue we had was that the vast majority of the restaurants in Barjac are closed Sunday through Tuesday. Of course our visit was just outside of their summer tourist season (3rd week of September) and perhaps we should have anticipated that. So eating out those nights was difficult. BUT, we certainly took advantage of that issue by purchasing our meals at the local butcher, cheese store and bakery to cook in the apartment. It worked out great. Thank you Allen, we thoroughly enjoyed your apartment and Barjac.

Great Stay
The property was as promised as shown on the website. Everything was in order and there was a great supply of dishes, cooking utensils and the appliances that are needed. The view is incredible and you get sit for hours just looking out over the countryside.

If you want a laid back town with lots to do nearby then this is a great choice.
The apartment is situated in a beautiful town and located in a fantastic place for restaurants and bars. The property itself has been really nicely finished and has a very nice feel to it. Owner was very welcoming and was happy to help out with ideas of what to see in the area.

Property better than advertised
We stayed at the Barjac apartment in late October and we found it be be perfectly appointed. When we arrived we were very impressed because it was even better than we had hoped- two large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms and sizeable kitchen/dining area and upstairs/loft entertainment area. By far the best feature of the apartment is the wonderful terrace overlooking the countryside and mountains. There is a propane bbq and it was very convenient for cooking evening meals. You will find every convenience in the apartment and despite the time of year, many restaurants were open. We took the bus from Avignon- it was only 2 Euros- on Le Sept. The bus was a very reliable and inexpensive way to travel to and from Barjac. We took the same bus north to see some of the other close-by villages, but only for a couple of hours because of the schedule. On another route, Edgard, you can take the bus to Ales and then hop on a train to Nimes. We loved the village of Barjac and we loved our stay in this wonderful property! Thank you Alan.

Beautiful apartment
We had a wonderful stay here, the apartment is superb; lovely decor and everything you could need. Diane was very friendly and helpful. We spent most of the time on the terrace which is covered and has lovely views, and sunsets. The gas BBQ was great too! Barjac itself is a very pretty town with a good choice of restaurants / bars and interesting shops and The Friday market was amazing! We visited Pont du Gard on the way from Nimes airport, and we did a trip to Pont D'arc another day. We found a pretty swimming spot neat Rochegurd and spent a day there with a picnic. There is a little shop in Barjac for provisions, as well as a bakery, and the mini Carrefour on the edge of the town was useful for the bulk of food and drink. All in all, a great stay, much recommended!

Sehr empfehlenswert
Wir hatten einen wundervollen Urlaub in einem geschmackvoll restaurierten Haus. Insbesondere die überdachte Dachterrasse haben wir genossen. Sehr rechtzeitig vor Abreise erhielten wir alle notwendigen Informationen für die Anreise und die Ankunft. Danke an den sehr netten Vermieter Alan, der für jede Frage erreichbar war. Das Haus liegt mitten in Barjac, einem sehr schönen Dorf. Insbesondere der Markt am Mittwoch und die Musikangebote haben wir dort genossen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Bezaubernde Wohnung in charmanter Umgebung
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Der CheckIn war sehr einfach, die Kommunikation im Vorfeld vorbildlich. Die Wohnung selbst ist wunderschön in einem alten Gebäude. Alles ist sehr sauber. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Der Aufenthalt auf der Dachterrasse: ein Highlight! Barjac ist ein charmanter kleiner Ort voller Charakter. Als Ausflüge können wir den Markt in Uzes sowie die nahe gelegene Kajakfahrt empfehlen.

Très bien pour visiter la région
La description et les photos peuvent prêter à confusion ; on peut comprendre qu'il y a 3 chambres alors qu'il n'y en a que 2 + 1 mezzanine avec un canapé plus très en forme au dessus de la pièce principale-cuisine. Cela dit, c'est là que nos 2 ados se réfugiaient pour jouer et surfer. On voyait ça aussi un peu plus grand, bien qu'on ne se soit jamais senti à l'étroit. L'escalier qui mène à l'appartement est un peu pentu et l'accès à la terrasse est un peu biscornu mais on s'y fait. En l'état, l'appartement est donc très bien pour 4 personnes si réparties dans les 2 chambres. Un majestueux rosier grimpant vous accueille, on est séduit par le charme des vieilles pierres (donc un peu sombre l'hiver mais parfait lors des canicules), une déco simple mais jolie, très bien équipé, très bon linge de lit et matelas, tout le b-a-ba dont eau et rosé (très apprécié), une agréable terrasse parfaite pour les apéros face au coucher de soleil et à une très belle vue. Barjac est un village charmant, bien situé pour visiter les Cévennes ou l'Ardèche (balades/randos très chouettes, sites magnifiques, une véritable bouffée d'oxygène). Les gens y sont gentils. Il semble y avoir de bonnes tables mais n'avons malheureusement pas pu les tester à cause du couvre feu en vigueur à ce moment là. Conclusion, on y a passé un très bon séjour. Merci au propriétaire qui, depuis Londres, y a grandement contribué.

Urgemütliches Apartment im Zentrum einer kleinen mittelalterlichen Stadt
Als Familie mit zwei Kindern (11 und 13 Jahre) haben wir den Aufenthalt in dieser Wohnung sehr genossen. Haus und Stadt sind mittelalterlich und wunderschön, die Wohnung ist sehr geschmackvoll renoviert, sehr sauber, gepflegt und liebevoll eingerichtet. Es fehlte uns wirklich an nichts. Die Temperaturen waren - wie fast überall in diesem Sommer - hoch, und so wurde es auch in unserem Apartment sehr heiß. Die vorhandenen Ventilatoren konnten hier ein bisschen Abhilfe schaffen. Bademöglichkeiten befinden sich nicht direkt im Ort, mit knappen 20 Minuten Fahrzeit zur Ardêche fühlten sich jedoch auch unsere Kinder gut versorgt. Attraktive Ausflugsziele gibt es in ca. 60 Minuten Fahrzeit mit dem Auto reichlich. Gemütliche Cafés, einige Restaurants und ein Bäcker befinden sich in unmittelbarer Nähe des Hauses. Während unserer Urlaubszeit in Barjac fand dort im Ort ein Musikfestival statt. Es wurde daher abends öfter laut, was uns vor allem am besucherstarken Wochenende überrascht hat. Die unterschiedliche Musik hat uns jedoch insgesamt nicht allzu sehr gestört und uns teilweise interessante Eindrücke verschafft. Außerhalb der Festivaltage ist es sicher sehr ruhig. Wir empfehlen diese Wohnung auf jeden Fall weiter.

Alles perfekt außer dem Internet
Wir haben den Urlaub restlos genossen. In der Wohnung funktionierte alles außer dem Internet. Die Nachbarin war über die Maßen hilfreich. Als Urlaubsort ist Barjac unübertroffen - wir hatten guten Anschluss zu Avignon und mit dem Auto waren viele Orte erreichbar. Besonders zwei Restaurants sind zu empfehlen (La Garguouille und Monteil) ansonsten waren wir mit dem Bäcker an der Grand Rue sehr zufrieden. Der Markt am Freitag hat für jeden was.
