We, Sabine and Mathijs, are a German-Dutch couple and welcome you to the Orangerie de Cardet. After many years of working in well-known hotels, we decided to realise our dream of owning our own guesthouse and are now here for you in Cardet.

The Orangerie de Cardet is a true oasis of calm. Situated in the heart of the village of Cardet at the foot of the Cévennes near Anduze and the river Gardon, the family property includes an old silkworm farm and an orangery opening onto 4,300 m2 of grounds with centuries-old trees. Upstairs are 5 guest rooms and 6 holiday flats (5 are currently being renovated) for 2 to 10 people, fully equipped of course. On the ground floor there is a guest lounge with stove and dining tables as well as a communal kitchen that can be used by all guests of the 5 guest rooms, e.g. for self-prepared lunch or dinner. In the large garden you have the possibility to relax on the deck chairs or enjoy your meal in the sun. You are also welcome to use our garden barbecue. At the end of the garden there is a private car park, which is locked at night. 600 metres away, you will find an almost private access to the Gardon for a relaxing, cool summer day by the river.

CARDET and its diverse region between the sea (1h away) and the natural area of the Cévennes have a cultural and gastronomic heritage in the midst of a unique natural environment where a wide range of varied activities can be found: Extensive walks and tourist circuits lead the hiker through an exceptional nature and offer the possibility to discover historical and romantic places. Cyclists, mountain bikers and tourers also get their money's worth from the rich offer. Spectacular panoramas, such as the cliff of Anduze or the banks of the Gardon, offer breathtaking views. In addition to fishing and swimming, the Gardon offers numerous other activities such as canoeing, paddling, nightlife and the Pont du Gard. A variety of historical monuments and cultural attractions invite you to visit, such as the castle of Vézénobres, the clock tower, the bamboo plantation of the Cévennes, as well as the Teddy Doll Museum and the Museum of Old Alès.
