Montclus, the ideal holiday destination!
Montclus is much more than just a pretty Gard village lost amid the vines. It’s the ideal starting point for exploring the treasures of the neighbouring Ardèche, such as the Aven d’Orgnac cave and the Pont d’Arc, the gateway to the famous gorges. And that’s just a small sample of what awaits you on a holiday with the family, as a couple or with friends!
What does a holiday with Sandaya look like? First, imagine a natural green setting close to the region’s main attractions. Then add a lovely heated water park for all the family to enjoy, free children’s clubs for your youngsters, a spa where you can unwind, direct access to the river, sports activities and a chance to let your hair down with evening entertainment for all. We take your holidays very seriously!
Visit Montclus with the family
Wherever you are in the Ardèche, the villages are never far away from water and Montclus is no exception. The River Cèze flows through the village, providing visitors of every age with a choice of spots to cool down with a refreshing dip or a splash-around! So let your budding young swimmers pull on their swimsuits and armbands and plunge into the water!
Once you’ve dried off, your next family activity will take you to a destination that promises amazement and memories to last a lifetime: the famous Chauvet 2 cave! There, you can admire cave paintings that date back an incredible 36,000 years, faithfully reproduced from the original cave. Continue with a visit of the Aurignacian gallery where you’ll discover the fauna and flora that would have been familiar to our prehistoric ancestors. A fascinating and informative immersion in prehistory that is REALLY worth the trip!
Visit Montclus as a couple
With its old stone houses, narrow streets and vaulted passageways, Montclus has retained all its charm of yesteryear and offers lovebirds a wonderfully peaceful place to wander. We’re convinced that one of your favourite ways to pass the time on holiday will be a stroll, hand in hand, with your special someone in the fresh morning air or as the day draws to a close!
Another activity that couples enjoy is a visit to the typically southern market. With the colourful stalls, floral fragrances and gourmet specialities wherever you look, it will appeal to all your senses! If you’re looking for an authentic souvenir to take back home with you, pick up an item crafted by one of the many artisans of the Ardèche.
