Character house *** with well-equipped garden, quiet location near city center

Comfortable and spacious 5-room house and fitted kitchen with garden, quiet location near the center of a city of art and culture. In addition to the charm of Pézenas, you will appreciate all the beauty of the hinterland. It is an old family house completely renovated while having kept its original character. It is located 200 meters from the city's central course. It has an independent entrance on a very calm garden although close to the agricultural high school. The layout of the rooms is that of traditional bourgeois houses: on the ground floor, a fitted kitchen and a basement with shower and sink. On the first floor, a spacious bedroom, a room converted into a game or meeting room, a bathroom and a WC. On the second floor there are two large bedrooms: one with two twin beds and the other with a double bed.
Travelers have a separate entrance. They have unrestricted rights to the whole house except for a room downstairs used as an office by myself.

A lovely 2 week stay
Le Gîte Piscénois is a traditional, charming, and very comfortable French property in the heart of Pézenas. It is so well equipped with everything you could need - it lacks nothing and all is very thoughtfully provided. The property is only a minute's walk from the centre of Pézenas, a town full of history and wonderful places to eat. The road network also makes it an excellent base for exploring in all directions. Eric and Paule-Marie are perfect hosts providing very useful local information but without imposing in any way at all. Le Gîte Piscénois is highly recommended. Thank you for our wonderful stay!

Our stay in a Gite
Well kept, older, three floor house, in a quiet neighborhood, just one block from central Pezenas. We loved the large windows with traditional wooden shutters to keep out the heat. Eric and PaulaMarie are lovely people who made us feel welcome without pretensions but with real warmth. Any minor issues were attended to immediately upon request. We loved walking less than five minutes for coffee, a croissant, or a number of nice restaurants and cafes. The only minor drawback was that when we booked we thought that there were more than two toilets in the house. All in all a very good value for a taste of living in a well kept but older French home. Pezenas is far from bursting with tourists, but has a charm of its own, is surrounded by beautiful vineyards and is very close to the sea and the mountains. The food and wines were excellent and not expensive. The large and bustling Saturday market was a treat. Great experience!

Great location in a green garden
Eric's home is a traditional 100 year old house with very high ceilings. The kitchen and bedroom were very large. The kitchen is VERY well equipped with everything you would need for preparing meals. There's a large garden - unfortunately it was cold or rainy during our stay.. The best part is that it's only a short walk the center of town. We had some problems with being cold and losing internet, but Erick always responded immediately..

Even more than we had expected!
We spent our holiday in the house of Eric and his lovely wife for one week, starting from the 3rd of july 2021. What a wonderful time we had in Pezenas. Thanks to the house, the owners who are wonderful people, Pezenas which is beautiful (and its center is just around the corner). Within less than one our there is the mediterranean. Don 't forget to visit Beziers! We really recommend this house for a wonderful holiday in La Douce France.

An exceptional stay under exceptional circumstances
"Character house *** with well-equipped garden, quiet location near city center" is an accurate host's introduction to this Pezenas, France gite. It's also quite modest. From the attractive private outdoor space to an extremely well-equipped kitchen and spacious comfortable bedrooms, the physical environment is excellent. What sets this property apart from all others we have experienced is the hosts. They are a traveler's dream couple.

Great property in fabulous location!
We had a wonderful stay in this historic family home within an easy walk of everything Pezenas has to offer. Our hosts live in the adjoining home (it belonged to the owner's grandfather), so they were available to answer questions and help when we needed it. The house is very well-equipped, with comfortable beds and good linens. Bedrooms and kitchen/dining room are large and comfortable. Stairs are solid and even, so most everyone can navigate them without a problem . Two of the bedrooms are on the 3rd floor (which is 2nd floor in European calculation), so keep that in mind if anyone is mobility-challenged. We loved sitting out in the beautiful garden for meals and wine, and our dog was especially happy to have his own fenced area in which to relax. The only drawback is the absence of a proper living room/lounge. There is a small space on the second floor outside the bathroom/WC, but it isn't conducive to hanging out and relaxing. The kitchen table is big and we mostly sat there or in the beautiful garden. I highly recommend this home for visits to Pezenas, a most wonderful little town!

Pezenas was terrific
Eric and Paule Marie are terrific hosts, and added greatly to our enjoyment of Pezenas. The house was comfortable, everything was as advertised, and there were historical details that made it that much more interesting. If you love small but vibrant French villages (as we do), Pezenas gave you a surprise around every corner. Glad we picked this place. Bill and Bette Auten

Charming House, Ideally situated
The house is lovely and exceptionally well equipped. Eric and Marie are charming hosts. The house is very close to the old town, so an easy walk to restaurants and the market, but also very near the countryside which was ideal for walking our dog. The garden is dog proof, and has plenty of shade which we were glad of as it was a lot hotter during our stay than expected.
