Les Portes des Cevennes Holiday Home 3 Sauve, Occitanie

Very warm welcome, clean and well-equipped accommodation, a little noisy because it is located not far from a very busy road, but the manager kindly offered to change accommodation. We didn't because we had a superb view of the Cévennes massif, pool cleaned every day, full equipment, we had a great stay.

Club suitable for young children, but not for teenagers. Spacious accommodation but not extremely clean on arrival (many cobwebs). A few simple adjustments could make it more functional (eg coat hooks in the bathroom). The outdoor facilities are basic (swimming pool in full sun without parasol, a few deckchairs, parking without shade, etc.). Reception staff unfriendly (but helpful). The price is reasonable, in line with the quality of the service.

helpful, friendly and punctual front desk staff.

The houses are built in nature. There are always three houses together, as terraced houses. plant easy. The house for 6-8 people is not recommended for 8 people. We were there with 4 people. There is only one couch. No coach table. The dining room chairs are not that super comfortable. Then it gets uncomfortable in the autumn evenings from sitting inside. Unfortunately, the French don't have a lot of closet space. So we used one bedroom as a "storage room" for luggage. But since we knew that from another facility in F, we were prepared for it. Unfortunately there was no oven. Microwave only. The washing machines on site cannot be operated with coins, but with an EC card or credit card. Unfortunately, that didn't work for us, but the employees at the facility were very friendly and helped out with their card. The bread truck came every morning from 8am to 9am. We don't know what the French put into the pool water. All swimsuits were discolored or faded. It didn't come out when you washed it at home either. Doesn't matter. It was a nice vacation. The nearest supermarket was 3 km away.

It's better to pack a little more than too little. There are no spices at all! No kettle available. No teapot. No oven. The tap water smells and tastes of chlorine. Only visit the swimming pool with old bathing suits, as you then have to throw them in the garbage (totally faded due to the extremely large amount of chlorine!). Pack clothespins (stand is provided). Far too little storage space in the kitchen and bathroom (for example, hooks for washcloths and towels are missing). No shelf above bathroom sink and shower. Shower with curtain installed to reduce shower size by 50%. We always showered without pulling tight and then of course had to wipe everything dry, which in turn also became a problem due to the non-absorbent mop. There was no coffee table, only the pull-out sofa which was comfortable. Mattresses were hard but didn't cause back pain. No plumeaus, just sheets (might get chilly at night) but heating worked well. No fly screen. Chairs very hard! Pillow recommended! Even if the house is advertised for 6-8 people, no more than 6 people should move in - tight!

Holiday facility. Good price/performance ratio. Depending on where you have your house, you are close to the main street. The resort is car-free during the week.

Everything is there that you need, even if not of high quality. But cheaper price in the off-season and nice staff. Great for children.
