\\\"You may be a stranger when you arrive, but when you leave we\\\'ll be friends.\\\" Area Details Saint Siffret is a charming medieval village boasting two resturants, and 3 of the souths best wine Caveau's what a joy to experience having your own 5 litre bottle filled with lovely Merlot,Cabernet,Rosa or White Wine (and so cheap.)
Uzes is only 4km. away and the saturday morning market is reputed to be best in the south of France for Wine, cheese, honey, truffles, garlic and of course all the other artefacts that make markets a joy. If you are keen on golf the nearest nine hole golf course is at Uzes. So is the source for the famous Roman Aquaduct at the river Alzon, the Alzons gorge is wonderful to walk. The Pont du Gard 10 minutes away is reputed to be one of the most visited Roman remains in the world. Here you can swim, fish,take a canoe, or just relax beside the waters watching the rock climbers that are attracted here.
For those keen on fishing the rivers Gardon and Alzon, then daily licenses are available at the Uzes tourist office.
(June to September.)
The lovely town of Avignon and a visit to the Popes Palace is a must being only 1/2 hour away, as is Nimes with it's Roman Ampitheatre and Temple. A drive to St.Marie's De-la Mer, the lovely coastal resort takes about one hour travelling through the lovely Camargue region, where the famous White horses, Black bulls and Flamingoes are seen.
La Cheminee is a great place to stay for all this, come and relax beside the pool and listen to the singing of the birds and cigala's day and night, smell the lovely lavender and see how the many different coloured beautiful Butterflies flutter around it.
You don't have to go far, just a walk through the forest that's around us and into the village for the occasional meal, because it's great to be able to BBQ, swim, play on the garden, relaxing and drinking without driving.
If exploring\\\'s your forte, then all the other famous historical towns of Orange, Arles, St.Remy de Provence, Montpellier that are well worth a visit, are all within easy reach.La Cheminee is an excellent place for Birdwatchers with non-birding family as they can easily reach some very good sites while the family are still in bed or relaxing by the pool. In the local Gorge du Gardon there are walks and canoing where you can get Crag Martin, Black Kite, Short Toed Eagle, Woodchat Shrike and near Pont St Nicholas there is a large breeding colony of Bee Eaters. You can be in the Crau in less than an hour for some excellent species such as Lesser Kestrel, Little Bustard, Stone Curlew and Calandra Lark. Or the Camargue for Night Heron, Purple Heron, Squacco Heron, Little Bittern, Zitting Cisticola, Cettis Warbler, Collared Pratincole, Roller, Slender billed Gull, Roller, Bee Eater and of course Greater Flamingo. For a full day birdwatching the Cevennes above Florac across to the Gorge du Jonte can get you 3 Buzzard species, Crag Martin, Pallid Swift, Subalpine warbler, Sardinian Warbler, Ortolan Bunting, Crested Tit, Black Eared Wheatear, Lesser Grey Shrike and many more.
Also for a full day a trip to Mont Ventoux is worthwhile for Rock Bunting, Alpine Accentor, Citril Finch on the higher slopes while lower down there are Redstart, Black redstart, Red Rumped Swallow, Goshawk. It is also a good raptor watching site. Overall we had over 220 species and many wonderful butterflies in the area including Swallowtail, Scarce Swallowtail, Cleopatra and Camberwell Beauty. Humming Bird Hawk Moths were common and we also had a Broad Bordered Bee Hawk Moth. But the best time visitors always say is when they just relax by the pool, BBQ in the evening, whilst enjoying the local wine etc. Travel Details Nimes: international airport (ryanair) and train station-25mins.
Avignon: tgv; eurostar, motorail---30mins.
