     Description 


The Mas de L'Elze is a rambling collection of old stone buildings,
clinging to a sun-drenched, south facing slope on the edge of the
Ardechois Cevennes. In the past, these buildings served a multitude
of purposes typical of the local countryside: a silk-worm loft, a
drying and smoking area for chestnuts, a barn for storing hay and
raising geese and ducks for the "gavage". Now, they have been
painstakingly and lovingly transformed into a set of completely
independent luxury houses, from which you can fully appreciate the
beauty and tranquility of the surrounding countryside.



 

     Amenities 


La Magnanerie is a compact dwelling (approx 45m2) for two or three
people. Part of the old silk-worm loft, from which the house takes
its name, has been transformed into a mezzanine to provide the
sleeping accommodation. The remainder has been opened out and merged
with the room downstairs, to create a large, light living area over
5m high at its tallest point. An open kitchen and a shower room
located underneath the loft complete the low-level interior
accommodation.
Outside, there are two secluded areas leading off the living area
from which you can enjoy the sunshine. Start the day on the south-
facing wooden terrace, then move with the sun to the west,
transferring to the stone-paved patio.



 

     Attractions 


The closest town to the Mas de L'Elze is Largentiere, dating back to
medieval times, retaining its walls, gates and ancient winding
cobbled streets. En route from there to Aubenas, you will find
Balazuc, designated one of the most picturesque villages of France.
The Tour de Brison, dominating the countryside to the south of
L'Elze, has an interesting wartime history.

The majestic gorges of the Ardeche, famous for their natural beauty,
are a short drive away. Closer by are the valleys of the Beaume,
Drobie and Chassezac, less well-known, but no less beautiful. The
mountain range of the Tanargue forms a backdrop to the setting sun
in the west. An unusual natural phenomenon to be found nearby is the
Bois de Paiolive, a labyrinth of white rocks eroded into strange and
fantastic shapes.

You can enjoy the countryside while relaxing in the sun with a glass
of local wine; alternatively, should you wish to get a little closer
to nature, many opportunities for horse-riding, mountain-biking and
hiking are available in the region. Canoeing is very popular and
bathing (or fishing?) in the clear, cool local rivers is a pleasure
not to be missed.

There are many caves to see in the region including Aven D'Orgnac
where there are often son et lumiere events.

Day-trips to Orange, Avignon, Nimes are within easy reach as are
vists to the Cotes du Rhone villages where you can sample the famous
wines.
