La Maison de l'Orb Riviere - VIEU103

Maison de la Rivere d'Orb is a fantastic house located on the riverside of the Orb, in Vieussan. It offers beautiful views of the surrounding mountains, direct access to the river and your very own beach. This property provides total peace and tranquillity.

The gite is the entire ground floor of a recently renovated century-old winemaker’s house. You have access to your own private riverbank looking up to the Orb valley and over to the medieval hilltop village of Vieussan.

The front door leads into a games/entrance area, which is also where you’ll find two of the bedrooms. The kitchen is at the end of the hallway and is fully equipped with two large French Café style doors leading to the garden. The kitchen is modern and has a fridge, a hob, a NEFF oven with grill, a dishwasher, a washing machine and all the usual utensils, as well as an American-style fridge/freezer with cold filtered water and an ice maker. There is a Juliette balcony which offers stunning views over the garden and river.

The first bedroom is the former stable and retains the drinking trough (useful for putting your suitcases on!), old wooden doors and one original stone wall. It’s a large and spacious room with a Euro King size bed (160cm) and has good hanging and storage space.
The second and third bedrooms are smaller – each has two single beds with hanging/storage facilities. These bedrooms have new windows with views looking through the trees to the beaches on the other side of the river. All of the bedrooms have radiators for warmth during the Spring, Autumn and Winter.
There is a day bed in the games room that could be used as an additional bed, however, the room is open and, therefore, does not offer privacy. A cot is available upon request.

The family bathroom is spacious and offers a large walk-in shower, WC and basin. Bath towels are provided.

Outside the living room’s beautiful Café doors is a small railed-off area, with lockable gates, where small children can play safely. From there, a flight of stone steps leads you to the walled garden.

The sheltered top terrace has a table for eating out in the shade of cherry and fig trees (help yourself to cherries, grapes and figs in season) and a barbecue. Down two more terraces is your own private river bank. Bathe or swim in the sun in the gently flowing waters, then lie in a hammock or deck chair under the shade of the trees on the bank.
