Children's agenda
We had an amazing holiday in the Cévennes d'Ardèche with our two children, Léa (7 years old) and Mathis (10 years old). As soon as we arrived, we were amazed by the beautiful scenery and the warm welcome of our gîte, nestled in the heart of a small authentic village.
One of the highlights of our stay was our canoe trip down the river. A first for the kids, who were both excited and a little impressed! Accompanied by a passionate guide, we learned how to handle our paddles gently and were even lucky enough to spot a heron and some fish underwater in the clear water.
