This stunning southern French stone home is the epitome of rustic chic. The perfect pied-à-terre for an adventurous couple or family with small children, this traditional two-bedroom house is charming, characterful and bursting with pops of colour. Featuring a lovely, light-filled open-plan living space – think terracotta tiled floors, exposed stone walls and a large wood-burning fireplace – this home wears its heritage proudly on its sleeve. You’ll love taking your morning coffee at the breakfast bar and gathering around the table at meal times before treating yourself to a long hot soak in the bath or lighting the fire and chilling out on the sofa for movie night. 

Your home’s idyllic location in Vogüé, undeniably one of the most beautiful medieval villages in France, means you’re within metres of both the Château, and the Ardèche river. Walk from Saint Cerice Chapel, a Roman church built into the rock and overlooking the village, along a footbath to the Château before heading down to the riverside beach to sunbathe and swim. Alternatively, hire canoes or get on your bike and set off on the Via Ardèche, a straight 25 km cycle path from Vogüé to Grospierres. Whatever you do, don’t forget to indulge in some local food and wine and live life as it were a beautiful dream.

Situated a short drive from Grignan, a pretty village renowned for its Renaissance castle, jumble of cobbled streets and low-lying lavender fields, this modern villa is a place to experience rural France at its very best. Afternoons are for exploring the surrounding countryside – set out on one of the many walks that unfold from your doorstep or explore the Provencal towns of Orange and Montélimar. 

If you’d prefer to take it easy, your garden is the perfect place to while away the hours. Lie back on a lounger – moving only to top up your glass – or float about in the private pool. Doze off in the hammock and awake to the heady smell of rosemary drifting from the summer kitchen as the appointed chef of your group cooks up a storm. Retire to the living space in the early evening and swap anecdotes over a bottle of rosé and when it’s time to get some rest, quiet bedrooms guarantee sweet dreams.

A short drive from the city of Montpellier, this villa offers fantastic views and plenty to do. We think it's a great choice for families and friend groups – it's bursting with amenities, including all-terrain bikes, a pétanque court, a heated infinity pool, and a gym and sauna. The dedicated office has a double sofa bed for two guests, and there are two EV chargers here for added convenience. We do recommend hiring a car here to make the most of your stay, whether it's exploring Montpellier or the village of Montferrier-sur-Lez, or spending a day at the beach.

With its secluded, heated pool, this elegant apartment housed in a 16th-century building in Uzès is the perfect French retreat. This charming restored home is full of character, from the remarkable circular stone staircase and wooden ceiling beams to the old stone floors. We love the gracious living room with its views over the fig and bamboo trees, the pool and the town's rooftops. There's a wood-burning stove, too, for cosy nights when the weather turns chilly and a desk for catching up on work as well. 

This place is ideal for a couple or family with two children. The icing on the cake here is the incredible hospitality from your lovely hosts. They can arrange all sorts of activities for you to do, including walking tours and cookery classes. 

When you're ready to explore the area, take a stroll around the town and admire the wonderful architecture or head to its renowned weekly market, then take a seat at one of its traditional restaurants. Further afield, visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Pont du Gard, under a twenty-minute drive away, or discover historic Nîmes, around thirty minutes in the car.

If you're looking for a French villa with true character, Here Comes The Sun is a great option. With typical rustic features that include exposed brick and beam contrasting the modern features, this home is a great place to help you relax and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings. Wake up with a nice cup of coffee on the balcony, then pick up your local delivery of baked goods that can be brought right to your front door, then set up a little breakfast for the rest. If you're feeling rather adventurous, hike all the way to Pont du Gard or take the car if you want see as much as you can in a single day. When you're back, go for a relaxing swim in the pool and enjoy a nice glass of locally produced wine, then maybe visit the nearby town of Uzès and explore the local restaurants. The wider area is filled with stunning gold courses and plenty of activities, but there's absolutely no rule that says you can't just stay in your superbly cosy holiday residence and curl up with a good book. 

Here Comes The Sun

Gated Community

Safe

Amidst the serene countryside of Provence, this 18th-century farmhouse sets the tone for an idyllic French getaway. From the private pool, Jacuzzi and sauna to the peaceful rooms, every detail has been considered to create a magical stay.

Your host is on hand to help organise extras like private chefs, massage treatments and actives. Plus, it’s just a five-minutes to the small town of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, while Avignon is only 25-kilometres away.

Mulberry Moon

Single-Level Home

Mosquito Net

At foot of the Mont Ventoux, in the heart of Vaucluse, nestled between centuries-old oaks and flowers, this charming home is perfect for a couple looking to get away from it all. First and foremost, with a pretty south-east facing garden, furnished terrace and private swimming pool, there's plenty of outdoor space to while away sun-soaked afternoons in the French countryside, with nothing but the sound of the chirping birds to interrupt your rest and relaxation. 

Inside the cottage, appealing artwork adorns the walls and a ruby-red colour palette runs throughout the open-plan kitchen, living and dining space to make for warm and welcoming interiors that will quickly have you feeling right at home. There's a different look in the bedroom with muted grey tones and palm-themed wallpaper to lull you into your restful slumbers with ease, ready for a day of exploring in the morning. 

Location-wise, you've struck gold. While the quaint commune of Carpentras, with its mini-markets, cosy bakeries, cafés, shops and restaurants, is right on your doorstep, you can also reach a number of interesting cities and tourist attractions within minutes. You're a thirty-two-minute drive from Avignon, forty minutes from Gordes, and only twenty-five minutes by car from the Grotte de Thouzon caves, just to name a few. 

The French Garden

Rain Shower

Balcony / Patio

Historic charm abounds in this delightful home. It’s tucked away on a quiet lane right in the heart of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, mere moments from the Wednesday marketplace, museums, boutiques, and wine shops. The historic home boasts magnificent 14th-century features including limestone architecture, exposed timber beams, and antique furniture. It’s been stocked with modern amenities including a Nespresso machine and hotel-quality beds, and with local touches like olive-oil toiletries. Best of all, there’s a private roof terrace that offers sweeping panoramic views of Provence. 

The Presbytery

Stair Gates

Set amidst the French countryside, this gorgeous retreat offers the French countryside experience with an added touch of Mediterranean charm. You'll be blown away by the quaint, idyllic scenes found both inside and outside of this home. We particularly love the enormous, curved Orangerie style backdoor which paves the way to the magical garden setting featuring a shaded alfresco dining area, day beds and a crystal clear pool – divine for a refreshing dip during the height of summer in the south of France. Back inside, the stunning open-plan kitchen-living area ensures a sociable stay for the whole group to enjoy together. The kitchen in particular will excite guests who are fond of cooking as the large central island makes it perfect for group cooking sessions. Why not book for a private chef to come and give you French cooking lessons? You'll also find that the local area allows guests to experience French culture at its finest. Mornings are for market visits here, so head on down into the local village, just a three-minute walk away where you'll find a lady named Patricia who sells fresh fruit and vegetables every Monday and Wednesday morning in the central square, Place de la Fontaine. Better still, visit on a Saturday as this is the main market day for the villagers to stock up on fresh meat, fish, cheese, truffles, wine and flowers. It's safe to say that such a warm and friendly atmosphere is hard to come by in France, if you're not in a rural village like this one.

Maison Orangerie

This rustic-chic apartment, located in the centre of Avignon, packs in the Provençal charm by the bucketload. The floors are made up of vintage tiles and original wooden boards, both aged like fine wine. Look up, and you'll note the stunning exposed timber frame of the building. All this character and period charm is sparked into life by the occasional modern touch, with elegant mid-century-inspired furniture, bright pops of colour and a minimalist, modern kitchen. Avignon is a city with a village feel. Step out, and you're just a few hundred metres from the storied Les Halles market and the Place de l'Horloge. It's the cultural epicentre of Provence and attracts art lovers and history buffs alike. Pair its cultural cred with lush parks, riverside strolls, and plenty of streetside cafes, and you've got an irresistible combo for a city break.


Sur le Pont d'Avignon

Looking for a home with a difference? We've found just the thing. This converted chapel offers a unique place to stay for travellers who enjoy the quirkier things in life. Combining French country style with colourful eccentricity, along with fabulous facilities and an absolutely idyllic outdoor space, this stunning home offers everything you need for a dreamy stay.

Start each day by getting the blood pumping with some lengths of your private outdoor pool, or challenge your loved ones to a game of tennis on your private tennis court. Then head inside to cook a delicious French breakfast in your bright kitchen, and tuck in alfresco at your outdoor dining set. As the evening rolls in, get cosy by the fireplace and chat away into the night with family and friends.

When you want to venture out, you'll find plenty of places to explore right on your doorstep. There are 17 acres of shared parkland to enjoy a bike ride or a ramble. Check out the nearby Teraventure, a fantastic amusement park with rides and attractions that are great for little ones. Or, head into the nearby city of Montpellier for great sightseeing, bars and restaurants.

Quirky & Quaint

Lift Access

Packed with French countryside charm, the romantic setting of this apartment invites guests into a whimsical paradise amid the mountains and hills of Les Alpilles. It's set on the grounds of a manor house, where olive trees, luscious green lawns and Mediterranean aromatics in the garden await. Tuck into tasty French-inspired meals on the vine-covered dining area overlooking the lawns or make the most of the swimming pool. Adjacent to the pool, you'll also find a petanque court – perfect for balmy evening games with a glass of local wine in hand. Meanwhile, inside a combination of rustic and vintage designs creates a stylishly authentic space to call home in Provence. 

Just over a kilometre away is the local village, and the home is within easy driving distance to many well-known historic towns in the area and an endless array of walking routes. The region is known for its fine olive oil production, which visitors can sample alongside other tantalising treats such as honey and cheese. Don't miss the historic city of Arles, a breathtaking gateway into La Camargue with its wild countryside, beaches, iconic white horses and pink flamingos. From the local areas' vineyards to the picturesque villages, and summer scents of lavender – with this stunning home as your base, you'll get to experience the best of Provence. 

Honey Love 

This quintessentially French château welcomes you to spend a serene holiday with family and friends. This house sits on the site of an old 15th-century castle that was destroyed in the French Revolution, so it’s steeped in history. It’s located in Jaujac, a medieval village packed with character, and set on an extinct volcano. You’re also within easy reach of the stunning Monts d'Ardèche when you want to be immersed in nature.

The home itself is packed with characterful charm, too – we adore the wooden beam ceilings and exposed brickwork that make it feel like a classic French countryside cottage. The wood burner fireplace invites you to sit with a mug of hot chocolate on cold winter evenings, while the private outdoor pool is a great place to cool off during summertime stays. We also love the covered terrace, featuring a dining area where you can feast on local cuisine while watching the sunset. 


Castle's Footprint

Hot Tub

Shared Pool

This lovely little villa lies on a small medieval hamlet, surrounded by Mediterranean gardens. We think it's ideal for a romantic getaway – children aren't permitted here, so you can take advantage of the peace and quiet. With your own Jacuzzi on the terrace and a private pool heated between April and October, it's well-equipped for alfresco living. We highly recommend hiring a car here to make the most of this gorgeous location, whether it's a day trip to Sommières or the bustling Montpellier.

Private Heaven

From mythical caves and spectacular waterfalls to charming villages and medieval castles, the region of Occitanie makes the perfect setting to experience the ultimate joie de vivre. And located in the quiet town of Pougnadoresse, you’ll find this home welcoming you to relax and savour the elements that make this location so special.  

Stepping inside, the light-filled living room opens up onto a wonderful terrace and garden – drawing you outside to bask in the natural beauty of your surroundings. From here, days can be spent lounging the pool, gathering for golden-hour drinks and barbecue meals that linger long into the evening – the welcome addition of a pétanque court also promises to bring a wonderful sense of fun to intimate gatherings. And when you’re ready to head back inside, you’ll find the warm and welcoming bedrooms (each with its own bathroom) provide the perfect sense of sanctuary. 

Days can be spent hiking, cycling, sightseeing and admiring the atmospheric charm of nearby towns such as Saint-Ambroix and Barjac. You’ll also find the spectacular city of Avignon is less than an hour’s drive away – making this the ideal destination for an inspiring day trip. 

Maison Rouge

Just two kilometres from this Provençal villa is the town depicted in a Van Gogh’s Starry Night. If that’s not enough to sell you on the scenic beauty of the green Avignon landscape surrounding the home, we’re not sure what is. Spacious enough for a family or group of couples and friends, the home is open-plan to adhere to sociable and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Start the day in the orangery with a traditional French breakfast and lounge in the shade under parasols by the pool. Find a place to hide in the secluded gardens, or get out and about for a hike in the nearby natural park for a rare bird sighting. Say au revoir to the day under the stars on the terrace. 

Van Gogh's Orangery

Changing Table

Herb Garden

Set on a stunning country estate in the heart of Barbentane, this 18th-century house features an array of charming original features and modern amenities that guarantee a luxurious stay filled with memories. Wander around the hectare of grounds, where you'll find an abundance of fauna and flora amidst the rosemary and thyme gardens. Unwind on the surrounding lawns surrounded by Provençal plants, or better still, take a seat on the terrace shaded by the ancient trees.

The interior of the house has been sensitively restored. Classic features, including wooden beams, an open hearth and ornate tiles are maintained whilst modern finishes complement its original charm. There are plenty of spaces dedicated to relaxation inside the home - a serene living room with plush sofas or a calm master suite opening out to a Juliette balcony. We highly doubt a rainy day here, however, the pianist of the group can soundtrack evenings in front of the crackling fire if a shower does show.

Leisurely afternoons are best spent in the pool or lounging on the south-facing terrace. Come evening time, gather around the Mediterranean-style dining room for a chef-cooked dinner with the region’s best ingredients. End the evening with a few games of boules as the sunset unfolds.

Located around fifteen minutes from the centre of Avignon, you'll be within a short drive of an array of national parks and picturesque streets lined with boulangeries and local restaurants.

This beautiful medieval chateau, built between the fourteenth and sixteenth century, is steeped in history. Coupled with its location, a stone's throw from medieval village Oppede le Vieux, you'll be transported to another time and place. The medieval stone fireplace, rambling multi-storied outdoor terrace space (complete with pool), terracotta tiled floors and antique furniture enrich the home with authentic charm and a feeling of majesty. The top floor bedroom is particularly spectacular, with 360 degree panoramic views of the surrounding Provençal countryside and balcony access. Be sure to check out nearby Cavaillon's weekly market, famed for its phenomenal melons.

Luxurious and elegant, wrapped in rustic natural beauty coupled with southern French charm, this villa is simply enchanting. Much of your time is likely to be spent in or around the tranquil blue pool – perfect for a refreshing dip in the heat of the day. For something a little different, meander down the small path and hidden amongst the trees, you’ll find a game of pétanque just waiting to be enjoyed. 

The wonderful natural light will follow you inside this villa – your first stop may be to sink into the comfortable sofa and enjoy the gentle breeze on your face from the large French doors. With neutral colours and a romantic feel from the French antique style, you will feel your batteries recharge within seconds of sitting down. As the sun begins to set, express your culinary talent and dine alfresco under the pergola surrounded by loved ones. With nothing but the quiet of nature surrounding you, listen to the happy chatter of your family as you sip on a glass of fine wine. As day turns to night and the stars break out above you, you’ll feel nothing but pure contentment in this peaceful location.
