The beauty of this place is breathtaking, the way it is nestled in between other small villages, and the markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays are not to be missed. I was especially touched by the friendliness of everybody I met, such kind people!

A picture book medieval walled village with beautiful open places, cafes, bar’s, restaurants, galleries, shopping, 2 cathedrals, and a resident Duke! The Saturday market is a big event with all sorts of traders from pottery, clothing, handcrafts, to wine, cheeses and locally grown produce. Wednesday market is more produce. The village has a beautiful park with Roman ruins and water spring being the source of the Pont du Gard which is 14 kms away … there is a bike track which follows the aqueduct. Lots of restaurants, cafes and bars as well as specialty shops and galleries. It is a great location for exploring the area.

A pretty unspoilt town which does not feel like a tourist trap. Lots of local restaurants used by local people. Very good value for money. We loved Le Bec Fin, La Parenthese at the Hostellerie Provencale, Ma Cantine, Terroirs and Trattoria Bettina et Bettino. Great variety of shops selling unusual things. Fantastic art galleries. Excellent car park so close to the centre of town. Fabulous Saturday market. A town in which you can stroll morning, afternoon and nighttime and always see something different. Super park if you travel with a dog!

Uzes is really beautiful… a fabulous food market and many great places to eat and drink. Very beautiful old historic village to stroll around and take in the history. Pont du Garde nearby and lots of little villages to explore if you have a car.

It’s a beautiful old historic town with lots of nice restaurants and shops. The nature around it is gorgeous, there are also lovely villages nearby, not to mention Pont du Gard which is a win for when you travel with dogs. We had a long lunch at Chez des Amis, parking is easy in Uzes. We stayed at Mas des Lilas, there is an old walking path from Mas des Lilas into Uzes. What is horrendous are the mosquitoes, they are an aggressive bunch. But that is not just Uzes that’s the whole of southern Europe. We went to Italy on this trip as well and it was the same.

Uzes is a family favourite since we were introduced to it about 10 years ago. It is a gem of a city. Excellent food. Friendly locals. Great wine. Lots to see and do both in the town and in nearby villages. In terms of eating/drinking the areas around the town square - Place aux Herbes -are pretty average. Avoid all of it, with the exception of Terroirs which has very nice food, their wine by the glass is not so great but if you order a bottle you'll be fine. Generally the best dining is on the ring road - specifically Rue Gambetta and blvd Charles Gide. This year we discovered two outstanding places. Usage, 6 Boulevard Gambetta, Open every day but Sunday. Wonderful fine french dining, reasonably priced also for fantastic wine try Copains Comme Cochon, 5, boulevard Charles Gide, open daily - fantastic sharing platters and the best tomato salad I've ever eaten. Also Comptoir du 7, 7 blvd Charles Gide, considered to be the best restaurant in Uzes. Its pricey but nice. We didn't go this time.
