Wonderful L'Olivette de Callian
We loved our stay at this gorgeous and well equipped villa. The house was everything we could have hoped for...the view fabulous...we were lucky enough to watch a full moon rise over the Massif de l'Esterel while sitting on the patio...the daytime vista was worthy of a Cezanne landscape. The nearby village of Callian was charming and a ready source of pain au chocolat for the kids' morning snack (grownups' too!).

A Beautiful Home
The inside of the home is large and beautiful and it was very, very clean. I must have missed reading this when we originally booked the villa but the air conditioning in the living room and kitchen/dining area was an added bonus. All of the air conditioning units worked very well. The information in the printed booklet, along with additional typed sheets, was very helpful. We took full advantage of the recommendations for lunch and dinner and, in my opinion, all of the recommendations were spot on. Chloe met us when we arrived and when I asked her if the grass could be mowed (it was taller than the seats of the chairs in the lawn), she made sure to contact Brigitte and a man came out on Monday to cut it. The pool is very pretty and everyone enjoyed using it. Our only disappointment was the landscaping. It is sorely in need of maintenance. Tree limbs and overgrown bushes are in the way of the walking paths and seating areas and the flower beds have not been maintained. The final portion of the road to the villa is in very bad shape but I am sure that this is outside of the influence of the owner. The Var region is a beautiful area in Provence and it is well worth visiting.

Dear Victoria, Thank you very much for your precious feedback. I am sorry to hear about the landscaping comment, we have a gardener coming 2x a month and while I know it rained quite a bit in June, there should not be such high grass. We will follow up with him about this. thank you!

Beautiful, spacious, comfortable, peaceful villa
This is a lovely, spacious holiday home. Two families with three teenagers between us stayed here for a fortnight in August 2021. The bedrooms were clean and comfortable. The living, cooking and dining areas were light and bright. although the ants in the kitchen were a little problematic. The outside space was gorgeous. There was a large swimming pool with wonderful views across the valley. Several different areas with tables and chairs to sit and eat. A great outdoor cooking space with a BBQ and plancher, sink and fridge. Because this was almost at the end of a single track road leading out of the village the property was wonderfully quiet. There were no dogs barking. Only once did we hear someone else's music. There are several supermarkets a few minutes drive away on the main road, a huge selection of boulangeries and several farmers' markets. The pretty village of Callian was a 15 minute walk away. There were a couple of reasonable restaurants here. The villa was a good base to explore the other Mediaeval villages along the valley. Our favourite was Seillans, both for the attractiveness of the architecture and the quality of the restaurants. Overall a good location, a spacious and comfortable house, a relaxing holiday.

En Juvel i Provence
Ett äkta vackert Provencalskt stenhus som successivt håller på att renoveras. Inredningen mycket smakfull. Läget magiskt med en utsikt åt söder, som en målning! De övre sovrummen med tillhörande badrum är sobra, stora och med ljuvliga sängar. Sängkläder i toppklass. Master bedroom likaså. Studion som ligger i nedre delen av huset med egen ingång hade en svag källarlukt, denna del väntar nog på renovering. Poolen mycket vackrare än på bilderna, stenplattor i olika färger och cool belysning på kvällarna. Vattnet friskt och med sälta. Köket väldigt charmigt och mysigt, men ej modernt renoverat än. Tunga lådor, lite svårjobbat och vi saknade vissa småsaker. Sista 50 m ner till huset är väldigt brant och dåligt underhållen väg. Det går att promenera till Callian 15-20 min, men vi föredrog bilen...där fanns små fina restauranger, bageri och en slaktare med egen korv som folk vallfärdar till. Brigitte som tog emot oss var snabb när vi ringde om ett par saker. Hon pratade bra engelska, var så hjälpsam, positiv och kunnig. Vi hade en mycket positiv upplevelse av kontakten med värden.

Magnifique villa
La maison est vraiment magnifique, le ménage à l’arrivée était impeccable et Brigitte disponible tout le long du séjour. Le seul point négatif est qu’avec une maison pareil, on a pas envie de la quitter !
