A historic building in the heart of a protected hamlet

Our 17th century house, completely and carefully renovated, was offered for holiday rental in June 2019. Roof in lauzes and walls in sandstone, it is classified 4**** (certification Atout France™) and 4 épis (Gîtes de France™) and is labelled “Gîte de charme”.
Situated in the commune of Chambonas, the hamlet of Les Sielves is made up of a dozen houses and only 3 inhabitants year-round; its exceptional buildings have earned it classification as a heritage protection zone.
Offering unrivalled tranquillity, this hamlet is within easy reach (4 km) of the small town of Les Vans and all its shops.

An exceptional level of comfort and facilities

4 years of total restoration, respecting traditional techniques, have enabled us to bring to this house all the comfort of the 21st century and an incomparable level of equipment: 4G mobile networks, Wifi, UHD TV, Blu-ray players, Bluetooth speaker, plancha and barbecue, wood stove, efficient central heating, but also… a plethora of kitchen equipment, toys for children and games for adults, baby equipment, …
Under the Ardèche summer sun or by the fireplace in winter, we can receive our guests all year round.

A large gîte, multiple spaces to meet with family or friends

Structured around a vast interior terrace on two levels, the various residential buildings offer our guests numerous living spaces to meet up or, on the contrary, to isolate themselves according to the mood of the moment.
Sheltered from the hot summer sun, the large covered terrace is ideal for convivial meetings around the large plancha or barbecue.
The large panoramic lounge allows everyone to meet around the large UHD TV or the wood stove offering a 180° view. A second lounge/library offers books, guides and board games.
Don’t forget our year-round guests, 3 charming goldfish in the pool on the lower terrace; you’ll have to think about feeding them: a task usually claimed by the youngest of our guests.
Details and 360° views to be discovered on the specific page: Living spaces

A magnificent private swimming pool area with panoramic view

Pool area

Large private heated swimming pool* with panoramic view

The huge private swimming pool area at the back of the house, benefits from a panoramic view facing south over the valley towards the villages of Chambonas and Les Vans.

The large flat-bottomed pool (9m x 3m50 – depth 1m35) allows the whole family to enjoy the water during the warm sunny afternoons of the Ardèche summer. An immersed beach (25cm) also allows the little ones to enjoy the freshness of the water under the supervision of their parents.

To guarantee the best bathing comfort and because of its ecological and bacteriological qualities, we have chosen an automatic salt treatment in preference to the addition of chemical chlorine.
The salt electrolysis, controlled by an automatic regulation, ensures the creation and diffusion, directly in the water, of natural chlorine ensuring a perfect disinfection of the pool.
All the dosages are checked weekly between each rental; an additional check is also carried out every Wednesday morning.

12 sunbeds and a few deckchairs will invite everyone to some well-deserved moments of relaxation to rest after the more sportive hikes offered by our beautiful Ardèche.

At the end of the afternoon, the bowling pitch will allow intense games of pétanque or Finnish Mölkky skittles (provided).
The small bar under the pergola has a refrigerator to keep the cold drinks quickly available when the sun becomes intense.

PLEASE NOTE: Particular attention has been paid to child safety with 2 simultaneous devices :
– a peripheral barrier with a safety gate in accordance with the NF P90-306 standard.
– an immersed roller shutter in compliance with standard NF P90-308 .

Swimming pool opening periods : the pool is open in Middle, High and Very High Seasons (from 8 April to 30 September). See the weather forecast.

* heating by heat pump to ensure a pleasant bathing temperature during the entire opening period.
