Les Vans
A tiny village in the Ardèche with an unusually lively café and restaurant scene for its size, Les Vans sits on the water in the Cévennes area of southern France, close to mountains and within reach of UNESCO-listed heritage in the wider region. Several historic churches add to the draw, and the surrounding countryside is deep wine country.
