About this property

Country house set in a rural location with terraced gardens and stunning pool

  • The stone house is built into the hillside so cool in summer and warm in winter. It is set in tranquil, shaded terraced gardens leading down to a sun-filled pool area. Comfortable sleeps 6 with two lounges. Dining area inside and large shaded dining area on the patio. Access from the back of the house into Foret de Partlatges and many hiking / biking trails nearby. So much to do in the area such as kayaking at Gorge du Tarn, beaches 45 minutes away, cultural centres of Montpellier, wine tasting in Montpeyroux, St Guilleme le Desert, Mont Ventoux and even trip to Barcelona just 3 hours away.

Fantastic

This is our second stay at the villa and we came back for a reason. The property is great to come together as a family to cook, play some uno and share some great meals in front of the fire. But then people can spread out for their downtime to play pool or get stuck into a good book in a comfy chair. The views from the house can be enjoyed from almost every window and the patio is a great space to take in the quiet of the morning or to enjoy a cocktail in the early evening. Ian & Siobhan are great and provide all necessary info and are quick to respond. We would definitely recommend the property to family & friends and hope to be back again for future holidays!

Great stay in rural French villa

We had a great stay at Ian’s property. The location is fantastic with lots of things to do. There was a storm one night that caused power to go off in the area but Ian's contact in the area was really helpful and provided us with a cool box to chill our food. Would definitely recommend staying. Thanks for a great week

A very comfortable week - Lovely property & the bonus of ring able to cycle into the National park & up into the hills from the house without using a vehicle was fantastic. Some great cycling routes.

Beautiful country house for a peaceful stay

Everything we needed was in the house. We wanted peace and a restful place.. and that's what we found there! Be aware: do not expect to have a swim when its cold outside, the swimming pool is not heated unless by the sun.

Maison conforme au descriptif, charme, espace, tranquillité, confort (une chambre plus "spartiate"), bien située pour des visites de la région. Guide des consignes à mettre à jour sur l'entretien de la piscine (passage hebdomadaire d'un technicien non précisé) et boîte à clé un peu difficile à ouvrir.

Juste parfait !

Rustique, charmant, romantique, chaque recoin joliment décoré pour une ambiance cosy, et le tout bien équipé ! Dans ce gîte, on se sent comme chez soi, tout est à disposition, du barbecue aux tongues, aux palmes, aux bougies, et jusqu'à la crème solaire ! La terrasse et la piscine sont aussi très agréables. Le seul inconvénient propre à la région : les moustiques (prévoir lotion pour la peau et tortillons pour la terrasse). Félicitations et merci aux propriétaires pour ce lieu plein de charme et idéal pour de belles vacances !

Vacances en famille

Très belle maison avec beaucoup de caractère et un jardin magnifique. Bien située pour visiter la région et arpenter les nombreux chemins de randonnée. Le temps n’était pas propice aux baignades dans la piscine mais nous avons profité de ses abords idéalement ensoleillés l’après midi. Ping pong et billard à disposition. Beaucoup d’espace pour partager jeux , discussions et repas !

Nous avons séjourné dans une maison atypique joliment décorée avec des coins et des recoins. Un super jardin arboré, en suivant le chemin au fond de celui-ci une piscine pour se rafraichir. Nous avons passé une semaine de déconnection totale, au calme entre ballade, apéro et piscine.

Eine paradisische Entdeckung!

Dieses Landhaus ist ein einziger Traum! Ruhig gelegen in unmittelbarer Nähe landschaftlich beeindruckender Naturparks des Languedocs, der Küste und Montpelliers bietet es den idealen Ausgangspunkt für zahlreiche Ausflüge. Die gepflegten, sorgsam bepflanzten Terrassengärten, die immer wieder neue Panoramen auf die Umgebung eröffnen, halten als Highlight einen riesigen, idyllisch gelegenen Swimmingpool mit moderner Salzfilteranlage bereit. Großzügige Gastgeber, die vorher viele hilfreiche Informationen zur Verfügung stellen und jederzeit per Mail erreichbar sind.
