Overview

If you’re looking for a luxury boutique hideaway tucked along the clean, cobbled centre of Uzès, then L’Albiousse is the bed and breakfast to consider. L’Albiousse was built between the 16th and 18th centuries and is known for its tasteful blend of 18th century French elegance and 21st century comfort, creating an authentic and romantic getaway for couples and small families with children older than 14.

The bedrooms and suites are decorated with rich, warm colours and contemporary and historical features. Guests will enjoy a touch of indulgent pampering from the Pirelli bedding and Egyptian cotton sheets to luxurious CLARINS amenities and soft robes and slippers. Each room comes with a private bathroom and shower, free WIFI, air conditioning and a tea/coffee maker.

Treat yourself to a drink from the mini-bar while lounging on a suite’s private terrace balcony overlooking the courtyard, or start with your day a yoga session on one of the complimentary yoga mats. The large windows and high ceilings provide ambient, natural lighting and views of the ancient cobblestones of Uzès.

L’Albiousse offers a continental or full English/Irish breakfast with delicious coffee and homemade jams. A special diet menu is available upon request. Because L’Albiousse is in the heart of Uzès, there are numerous restaurants and cafes to choose from.

Uzès itself is a world heritage site and is an experience in itself. This well-kept, ancient city dates back to the 2nd century BCE and offers visitors a chance to explore its rich, cultural heritage, views and adventures. Stroll around the cobblestone streets that tell the story of Medieval history, visit the famous Pont du Gard and fountains or take full or half day tours to Avignon, Nîmes, the Carmargue, or Châteauneuf du Pape.

Take off on a helicopter tour, a hot air balloon ride or rent a bicycle to travel around the city at your own pace. Canoeing the Gardon River is popular, as is the well-designed Uzès golf course. Your arrival back to L’Albiousse will welcome you to the courtyard where you can reflect on your day and appreciate the surrounding French beauty.
