About the location

Saint Hilaire d'Ozilhan is a quiet XVIth century village, 4km from the A9 motorway, between the Duche of Uzes (16km), Avignon (20km) and Nîmes (18km). Arles and the Provence are not far away, only 40km by the motorway. Our guests always visit the famous Roman aqueduc Le Pont du Gard (only a few minutes from the property) and its renovated site. The same golden stone has been largely used to build the villages around.

People enjoy touring Uzes, the capital of the Duche with its towers and archbishop quarters, or wandering among the shops of its typical Provence market place. Avignon is only a 20mn drive from here. You will be able to visit the Palais des Papes and the famous broken bridge, le Pont d'Avignon, together with the intra-muros city. A short drive will lead you to the wine site of Chateauneuf du Pape.

Nimes is an old Roman town with a lot of character. Concerts and ballets are shown in the amphitheatre every night, and its "feria"of Pentecost, with bull corridas, is sought by many.
