We are looking at this property to stay at in October. Just wondering if anyone knows of the property and could give us some information. Thanks

That's in the Languedoc-Roussillon area not Provence<BR> in the Gard with wonderful views of the cevennes.A lovely part of the south of France.<BR>It's possible there s another place with that name. Tell me the name of the village, and try to check it out.

There may be several inns with this name, but I have stayed in one near the village of Graveson, half way between Arles and Avignon, not far from Les Baux and St Remy. If this is the one you are thinking of, I can tell you about it. First though, I have to tell you that we stayed there because it belongs to the sister of a friend of ours in Spain, so you will have to take what I say in the light of that. It is a simple two star hotel, part of the Logis de France chain. The owners speak English, but when we were there (in late June) we were the only none French people there. The Mas is now the main house where the family live and the bar/breakfast room is. The rooms are built around the small pool and in two separate buildings. They are simply furnished but clean. The restaurant is a few yards away, the food was ok but not brilliant. The owners were very helpful and friendly. It was very hot and there was no airconditioning, so you rapidly learned to keep the shutters closed all day to keep the heat out. The nicest thing was sitting around the pool at night, with all the other guests, enjoying a nightcap.<BR>They have a website (www.hotel-des-amandiers.com) which has photographs. I enjoyed my stay there very much and look forward to staying there again sometime.

Hi Lesley, Thanks for your reply but it is not the hotel we are looking at. I guess you are right that there are a number of hotels with this name. Appreciate your time.
