About this property
Within the heart of the picturesque village of Blauzac, Le Chambarru rises behind stone walls as a refined 16th-century manor house, its beautiful façade a quiet witness to centuries of southern French charm. Lovingly restored by its French and Belgian owners, this heritage home balances noble character with stylish comfort, offering a wonderful escape just moments from local village life.
Inside, the atmosphere is generous and warmly inviting. Original beams, a grand fireplace and open-plan living spaces reflect its storied past, while high-quality furnishings and thoughtful details make each room feel effortlessly welcoming. A fully equipped kitchen opens directly to the shaded terrace, where long lunches stretch into lazy afternoons and expansive views. Upstairs, a large landing opens to a character library with billiard table, while three well-appointed bedrooms and two bathrooms accommodate up to 6 guests with ease.
Outside, the garden feels like a world of its own featuring mature olive trees, lawn and a gleaming 10-metre pool framed by a stone sun terrace. Whether relaxing on a lounger or gazing out towards Uzès and distant Mont Ventoux on the horizon, guests are treated to a setting that feels classic and timeless.
Just a very short stroll from the front door brings you to Blauzac’s café-bar, bakery, grocer and restaurant - everything you need within arm’s reach. The vibrant town of Uzès is under ten minutes away by car, offering a wealth of boutique shops, café terraces and restaurants, not to mention its famed twice-weekly market on Place aux Herbes beneath the plane trees. For days out, the Pont du Gard is just 25 minutes away, while the chic beaches of the Mediterranean coast are easily reached in over an hour.
Whether you are seeking relaxation or an authentic base for exploring Provence and the Gard, Le Chambarru promises a stay that’s full of character, comfort and charm.
