This house is not on the main road. I have placed the pointer incorrectly . Although a short walk from the main square and river walks it is away from the noise of the square and traffic.
Uzes is an exceptionally beautiful town situated on a rocky promontory on the edge of the Cevennes hills, close to the Pont-du-Gard and Avignon (5 hr from London by Eurostar). Uzes is also close to Nimes and Montpellier both of which have daily flights from London Luton airport with Ryanair.
Its Medieval towers dominate the lush green valley of the river Alzon which takes its source from the Eure, venerated since ancient Roman times & whose waters flowed in the aqueduct from Uzes to Nimes, passing over the Pont-du-Gard. The town is surrounded by a countryside not unlike Tuscany. Vines, cereal crops, olives, almonds, figs, apricots & cherry trees are cultivated in the ancestral manner. The locally produced goats cheese, honey, wine & Provençal vegetables, are all of an excellent quality. With the Luberon & Camargue close by, Uzes is located in an ideal resting place. The beauty of its architectural heritage, & its exceptional brightness offer a remarkable quality of life.
