Cevennes is a glorious mountain range in south-central France that’s a marvelous mix of flower-strewn meadows, towering peaks, and deep valleys where olives, grapes, and fruit trees grow. A five-hour drive south of Paris, Sainte-Fereole is a peaceful village in the heart of this region. Many tourists enjoy Sainte-Fereole as a home base for exploring some of the area’s most alluring small towns. But don’t make the mistake of not exploring Saint-Fereole as well. Sainte-Fereole boasts of a long rich history: a family home owned by former French president Jacques Chirac, remains of the Gallo-Roman era, a Romanesque church displaying altarpieces from the 17th and 18th century, and renovated maquisard huts that pay tribute to fighters killed by the German army during World War II. The town also has an array of hiking trails to aid visitors in discovering Sainte-Fereole’s beautiful flora and fauna. If you’re ready to experience a bit of France’s past and enjoy Sainte-Fereole’s small-town charms, here’s a list of amazing Airbnb vacation rentals to complement your stay.
