"A quiet, picturesque little fishing town with proximity to beaches and wetlands. There is a lot to do for a tourist, many good Seafood restaurants and several beautiful beaches. I went horse riding with the company "Lecurie des Dunes" on Promenade a cheval. It was a magical excursion. All the horses were well cared for, the guide Joe was the best. Had a wonderful couple of hours."

"We arrived early evening and enjoyed a couple of hours' stroll around town; we lit candles in the beautiful little church and visited all the shops that were open. The cathedral and bell tower are magnificent and the cobbled streets charming. We spent hours at La Fontaine restaurant where the food and wine were excellent, the surrounding trees lit up by fairlights were a pretty backdrop and the people-watching was superb. Next day we did some serious shopping and had coffee and croissants at a lovely boulangerie/patisserie. Then drove to St Quentin-de-la-Poterie to visit all the ceramic workshops, make some purchases, and enjoy a typically French lunch at the Restaurant de la Poterie. A great stay and we could have happily stayed longer."

"Lovely little village on the other side of the Rhône river and as such gets overlooked. Some great restaurants there and a small park on a hill giving great and alternative views of Avignon and of course, the Palace du Pape. Also, it is close to the village of Chateauneuf du Pape (13 miles drive) if you want to sample some very fine wines of the region"

July music festivals interfered with access to the Amphitheatre, and the Jardin de la Fontaine was closed all day to the public though there did not seem to me much of a crowd at the evening event. So no Temple of Diana. The archaeological (Romantic) museum was good, Maison Carree interesting. Restaurants average. Rail corrections good. Did not try buses - there seem to be at least three companies. France has gone crazy with privatisation. Did it learn nothing from Thatcher?

The town was almost at our doorstep, making it a very short walk to our favorite morning cafe, Ma Cantine. The main street was shady and pleasant with many restaurants with outdoor seating. We loved the cobbled stone streets with boutiques, boulangeries, boucheries, all leading to the Place aux Herbes where a huge Wednesday and Saturday market was held. Several ice cream cafes scattered along the way made for fun stops. The quieter, historic area with its winding and narrow streets, art galleries, a medieval garden, huge church on a high look-out over the area was a pleasant way to explore that section of town. A short walk takes you to a park with swings for kids, and to the municipal swimming pool where one can sign up for morning aquasize classes or just come to swim and sit. Bathing suits can be purchased from a machine if you didn't bring one.

Villeneuve is a very beautiful old small town with well kept traditional buildings. Much quieter than Avignon. But has many great restaurants including traditional French and even a superb and unusual vegetarian. Historic attractions are superb. Great ice cream delicatessen and even tea/coffee. There is a toy shop but suits older visitors more. Easy to walk round the wonderful streets have a drink in the square and select the restaurant for you.

We travel in a bit of a whirl, our son's preference.

We travel in a bit of a whirl, our son's preference. That said, a day in Nimes as part of a week in the Midi we valued. We stayed in the center and experienced the Roman treasures - the Arenes de Nimes, the Maison Carre', the Museum of Romanity. The Jardin de la Fontaine had some interest but rather little garden. The food was fine, as ever in France; the Columbus Cafe is a beautiful place for breakfast or a snack. Alas, I forgot to note the name of a very lively and excellent restarurant for lunch. The Pont du Gard 32 km away is a must-see/ must-traverse - a 2000-year-old Roman 3-tiered aqueduct in great condition, rather glowing in the late afternoon.
