At the heart of the village of Castillon-du-Gard, reflecting history from the Middle Ages and overlooking the Pont du Gard, an exceptional hotel with a modern feel\u2026 An authentic building made of local, warm stone throws open its doors to you in a unique setting where serenity is key\u2026\u00a0With enchanting views, intense sun and singing cicadas and elytras, Le Vieux Castillon is a hidden local gem, unspoilt for the enjoyment of its guests<\/p>\n
A small medieval village overlooking the valley of Gardon and its scrub, between vines and cherry trees. Formerly the residence of the Uz\u00e8s bishop, it was taken over during the religious wars, passing between the hands of Catholics and Protestants like treasure\u2026\u00a0But now Castillon is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful villages in Gard: its position in two hundred-year old olive groves, its paved, narrow and winding streets, the old ramparts, its mullioned windows, its expressive gargoyles\u2026 Plenty to remind us that time has passed and left a wonderfully unique memory.<\/p>\n
The hotel is a splendid, authentic location which invites its guests to relax. Push open the door and appreciate the subtle reminders of history which make this hotel a historic marvel dedicated to the French art of living.<\/p>\n
With its period tiles and Gard stone staircases, enjoy losing yourself in the world of Le Vieux Castillon\u2026 Eighteen medieval homes, linked through time by walkways, massive steps, suspended bridges or shaded patios, hosting 34 rooms and suites which make up the hotel. The colours are found between the walls, in the decoration and surrounding nature, forming a welcoming mix of warm stone and refreshing marble\u2026<\/p>\n
Reserved for hotel guests, the open-air swimming pool (heated from May to October) offers an exceptional view over the Gard and Mont Ventoux vineyards.\u00a0Comfortably settled down while sipping a cocktail, this is the ideal spot to enjoy the fresh air and relax whilst doing nothing at all\u2026<\/p>\n
At Le Vieux Castillon, the patio is a magical place. The pleasant scent of fig and the ineffable song of the cicadas cocoons us like a healing chant.\u00a0Cushions, Berber footstools, a small area for reading or dreaming, the patio reinvented for comforting calm moments is the very heart of Le Vieux Castillon. Breathing in the wonderful aroma of the plants, you will truly understand the dream of life in Provence.<\/p>\n
