Bright, Spacious Gite With Private Heated Pool And Courtyard Garden.
The accomodation is on one level offering three bedrooms (one en suite) with a separate shower and wc, all leading off the open-plan living area. Uniquely, the sliding glass windows, which run the length of one side of the lounge area, open directly onto the pool - your in-house pool bar! Care and attention to detail make it a home-from-home: the well-equipped modern kitchen complements the mixture of traditional and contemporary decor. Being a converted wine barn, the thick walls maintain a welcome coolness, even during the summer months. Free wi-fi and a TV with a firestick give access to your favourite entertainment channels, or if you'd prefer, the Orange box provides French television. Outside, the courtyard garden has a BBQ and dining area, sun loungers and two further shady seating areas. Being entirely enclosed, the space is child and pet friendly. There is secure, shady parking for two cars inside the main gates.
Ideally situated between mountains and sea, Neffiès is the perfect base for exploring this lovely corner of the Languedoc. There's something for everybody: sandy Mediterranean beaches, swimming lakes, spectacular gorges, wine tasting, historic towns and vibrant cities. And after a day exploring, or lounging by the pool, leave your car behind and walk up to one of the three excellent establishments we have in the village to wine and dine. Welcome to the real South of France!

We had a lovely stay with Jill and Richard and not forgetting Tilly the dog who our cockapoo loved. The gite has everything you need and Jill's help with local knowledge, booking restaurants and booking our vet appointment for our return to the UK was invaluable. Great hosts and a great location. We wouldn't hesitate to go back.

It was lovely to meet you and to see the dogs having fun too! We would look forward to the opportunity to welcoming you here again.
Great location, Jill and Richard were very welcoming helpful and informative about the area, facilities and events. Neffies is close to Pezenaz which is a great town with plenty of shops and restaurants. It has a very good Saturday market which we went to several times. JIll’s guide book is really useful

We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay in our gite and that you appreciated what this special area has to offer. Our aim is to help guests get the most out of their time here, whether it's relaxing or exploring, and you did just that!
We had a lovely stay at Jill and Richard's gite this summer, with our two boys. They were so welcoming and the gite is very well stocked with everything you need. It is a beautiful area, a perfect location, close to the coast and many other wonderful things to see. Lovely local restaurants and a boulangerie for breakfast!
Jill and Richard were excellent hosts, greeting us with a kitchen stocked with goodies (wines, bread, milk, fresh juice, fruit & vegetable). The house was impeccably clean, which was highly reassuring given the current times. Jill and Richard were discreet, respectful and always available should we need anything. The pool was lovely and the outdoor area ideal for summer lunches and dinners (+ perk to have the BBQ). We would highly recommend this stay, as it is not only deeply relaxing, but also central to loads of wineries and outdoor sights. Will definitely come back!

Michael, so happy to receive you and your parents. You were gracious guests and we hope to see you again soon.
What’s not to like!?
Jill and Richard are the warmest and most welcoming hosts. We immediately felt at home in the clean, cosy and comfortable gîte.
The bedlinen feels so luxurious and soft! Excellent pool that is well taken care of.
And we will never forget little Tilly, the sweetest dog of the whole Hérault.
The region has so many possibilities. We visited Mèze, and took a navette across the Etang the Thau, to Sète. We visited Pézenas, a good place for cosy shopping. The kids really liked the little beach at the Pont de diable, and the beautiful village St.-Guilhem le Désert. Neffiès itself has two good restaurants and a cosy wine bar, all in walking distance.
We plan to go back! Thank you, Jill and Richard, and Tilly❤️
Een aanrader!!!

It was a pleasure to meet you all and to host your holiday in our gite. We loved that you you enjoyed all the facilities here, and accepted our dog Tilly into your family - she misses you! We look forward to welcoming you again soon.
We are a family consisting of 2 adults and 3 children aged 11-12-13 years. We had the most amazing summer holiday in this beautiful holiday home in Neffies.
Super cosy little town and a really nice WELL-equipped house with a lovely pool and really great terrace/courtyard with both sun loungers and dining area. Ideal interior design of the house with many cosy details, and especially a nice kitchen with everything you need. Very clean and well-maintained house, with nice beds, bathrooms, barbecue, tv, pool toys, parking right at the door - and everything you could wish for.
In addition, we, and especially our children, enjoyed the company of the host couple's cute little dog, who is incredibly child-friendly and calm. And no need to worry if you don't like dogs, because we were asked every time if it was ok for the dog to come and say hello to us.
We have never met such SWEET, pleasant and attentive hosts as Jill and Richard. We were welcomed SO well from the moment we booked the house. Bread, fruit, juice, butter, cheese and wine were waiting for us when we arrived after a long drive. Really thoughtful. And Jill was very helpful in assisting with e.g. booking restaurant visits and wine tasting, as well as ideas for experiences and excursions in the local area.
We can only give our absolute best and warmest recommendations for this wonderful holiday home and incredible sweet host couple in Neffies.
We would definitely book again!

Dank je, Marjoleen. Het was een genoegen jullie te ontmoeten en jullie waren perfecte gasten. We weten dat de verwarming in de winter niet ideaal is, maar het is een oud pand en de beste oplossing - het was desondanks erg gezellig! We kijken er naar uit om jullie hier weer te mogen verwelkomen.

Vielen Dank - wir kommen gerne wieder!

Excellent séjour dans une location très agréable, parfaitement équipée et propre (tout y est et même plus), fraiche à souhait malgré les 35° dehors !
Quant à l'extérieur, il est très agréable de s'y reposer après une journée à visiter la région.
Le village est charmant, pourvu d'une boulangerie, épicerie bio et d'excellents restaurants.

Nous avons passé une superbe semaine en août à Neffiès, village calme et charmant à proximité de nombreux points d’interêt qui méritent le détour (Ponts du Diable, Cirque de Mourèze, Lac du Salagou).
Jill et Richard sont charmants et attentionnés, ils ne manqueront pas de vous conseiller sur les activités à faire dans la région. La maison est très agréable et la cuisine parfaitement équipée.
N’hésitez pas à réserver chez Jill et Richard !
Well equipped property, very clean, lots of little extras have been thought about. Kitchen well equipped for those that like cooking. Great hosts who are available for any questions. Thanks to Jill for booking local restaurant, where we had a lovely meal! Pretty village too!

Excellent week Away
A very nice Gite, which was a home from home with everything you needed available. It was a lot larger than we expected, so lots of space for everyone. We had a nice relaxing week with family, a couple of days out and plenty of time around the small pool which is a bonus to cool down from the heat of the day. The Gite was even cool during the day which helped make it comfortable. Lovely hosts Jill & Richard who where discreet but on hand to help with any advice, questions or table bookings. A big recommendation from me and the family.

well appointed, lovely gite with heated pool
We stayed for a week with two young children and had a lovely time.
Gill & Richard are considerate and discrete hosts and very good a accomodating our specific needs and making suitable recommendations for activities and restaurants.
Neffies is a very pretty village in a beautiful location ideal for site-seeing and wine-tasting. Lovely beaches are within easy reach and the short drive to Montpelier airport made for easy transfers.
The gite is in excellent condition with a kitchen kitted out by someone who likes to cook, along with basics like oil, seasoning and tin foil etc, it makes life very easy.
The court yard garden is a lovely spot to sunbathe or enjoy a meal with a glass of wine whilst watching the swifts overhead.

This Gite has everything you need.
Our group of four adults stayed in this Gite for four nights on the start of our way through France and into Italy for a family wedding. What a great start to our holiday. It is such a relaxing and peaceful place, with a great pool and courtyard. The Gite is spacious and well equipped with everything you might need.
Jill and Richard are the perfect owners who helped us with many things including directions to places, interpreting, and directing us to the best wine shops!
Thank Jill and Richard, we will return soon.

Amazing Villa
We have just had a fantastic fortnight in this villa. It is well equipped with everything you could need and more! The very generous welcome pack (including wine, fruit and essentials such as coffee, milk, bread etc) was most appreciated. Jill and Richard were fantastic hosts and their recommendations of places to eat, sights to see, and local events were all 'spot on' and enabled us to make the most of our visit. The village of Neffies is beautiful with two good restaurants, a bakery and a small supermarket. We made full use of the lovely pool and barbecue and found the outside area perfect for both the sun lovers in our party and those of us who prefer a shady spot to read a book or chill out with a beer or wine. We were all sorry to leave after our fortnight and will be recommending th villa to family and friends.

Fab holiday destination
A lovely gite in an excellent area. We wanted a gite in a village location central for sight seeing and we were not disappointed. The gite was clean and very well equipped. The pool, courtyard and eating area was a nice place to relax with friends and we made good use of the BBQ. The owners Jill and Richard lived on site and clearly wanted their guests to get the most out of their holiday. Jill had put together a comprehensive tourist information folder, including details about the village, local attractions and events. We loved the village restaurant Le Very'table and had fantastic meals there at reasonable cost. We have no hesitation in recommending this property to anyone wanting good accommodation in this beautiful area of France!
About the host
Hosted by Jill Morley
Jill, Richard, and spaniel Zac, loaded themselves, and whatever else they could fit in, into their car, and began their French Odyssey in 2009. Strangers to the Languedoc region, they were drawn to the Mediterranean landscape, lifestyle, culture, and the lure of 300 days of sunshine a year. They weren't disappointed. Finding a neglected converted wine barn, they applied their varied talents into creating a home for themselves and a holiday rental, which woud be a home for others. With backgrounds in furniture making and TV production, plus Zac's ability to dig holes, the project was bound to succeed! Decide for yourselves: they haven't looked back, and look forward to welcoming you to share their sun-drenched, secluded retreat.
Why they chose this property
We genuinely care about our guests, from attention to detail, to providing a welcome pack, and advising about whatever attractions suit your needs, we will go out of our way to help you. Previous guests have commented about how well-equipped, and how clean, the gite is: providing a home-from-home for you is important to us. The accommodation is spacious, and remains cool even in the height of summer. It is also quiet and tranquil, with all the benefits of a well-appointed village on your doorstep.
What makes this property unique
After tumbling into the pool from inside the gite, you then have the choice of two excellent eating venues within 5 minutes walking distance - leave your car behind and relax into village life. We are also well-placed between mountains, sea, lakes, rivers, gorges, the Canal du Midi, vibrant cities, historic towns and picturesque villages. And if that's not enough, there are family attractions too. You won't have enough time to explore the richness the area has to offer, but you can try!
