This colourful pad in central Montpellier manages a seemingly impossible task – it's right in the thick of the action, yet, tucked away at the back of a residential building with a private terrace, it boasts peace and quiet that's difficult to find in a city.

We expect you'll spend most of your time in the cheerful outdoor space, decked out with a sun lounger, dining table and sofas to encourage true relaxation. Nip out to one of the nearby patisseries each morning, pick up some fresh croissants and take them back home to enjoy in the sunshine. Come evening, switch the coffee for a bottle of sauvignon and continue luxuriating in this restful spot. 

When you're not making the most of your stylish home, step out your front door and discover Montpellier's must-see sights. Place de la Comédie is less than ten minutes away, while the lively neighbourhood of Saint Roch is even closer. If you've travelled by car, journey just fifteen minutes to the stunning sandy beaches of Palavas-les-Flots and La Grande Motte.

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.

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

Tucked down a quiet country lane just a short walk from the hilltop village of Gordes, this beautifully refurbished stone house is full of Provençal charm. Behind its classic blue shutters, you’ll find elegant, homely interiors with four stylish en-suite bedrooms and an open-plan living space made for slow mornings and sociable evenings. Outside, the landscaped garden is a dream – with a heated pool, sweeping views of the Luberon hills, and lush lavender bushes, roses and olive trees. Wander into the village for the weekly market, galleries and restaurants, or explore the region’s vineyards, historic sites and scenic walking trails. This is Provence at its most idyllic.

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.


Secret Baignade

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

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

Projector

Perfect for families and friends looking for a peaceful break in Provence, this villa is in a quiet residential neighbourhood. You’ll be just a short walk from the centre of Aubagne and only a twenty-minute drive from Cassis and Marseille. Aix-en-Provence is thirty minutes away by car. The villa is modern and stylish, equipped with everything you might need. Kids will love playing table tennis and pétanque, and watching movies on the projector screen, while grown-ups will surely enjoy sipping cocktails by the pool while admiring the view. 

Passing Time in Provence

Set in a sunny garden of mature oak trees, this six-bedroom villa is a serene spot for a holiday. From your morning swim in the picturesque pool, to lazy lunches on the shaded terrace, it’s a home that’s made for rest and relaxation. There’s a well-equipped kitchen, complete with a large range for cooking up a French feast, and space to eat both inside and outdoors. Situated near the pretty village of Bonnieux, you’ll find restaurants and shops a short drive away, plus plenty more Provencal gems to discover a little further afield.

Luberon Oaks

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

Hammock

You'll find this gorgeous family-size cottage, surrounded by unspoilt countryside, at the foot of the typical Provençal village of Ventabren, is just about as sweet as it gets. Slip into your private pool for a morning swim beneath the cypress trees, before preparing a French breakfast out on the furnished terrace. Under a pergola of vines, with a view of the fountain, we can think of nothing better than drinks and dinner alfresco out here with friends and family. 

Inside, it’s warm and welcoming, with pastel pink tones and rustic terracotta tiles. The chic, art-deco-inspired living room and dining area tempts cosy evenings spent snuggled up besides the crackling fire playing light-hearted games and drinking wine. 

But when it's time to head out, take a fifteen-minute drive to the beautiful city of Aix-en-Provence, boasting stone streets and cobbled squares overlooked by the Sainte-Victoire mountain. Locally, there's a hub of activity all within walking distance with a historic centre and breathtaking views of the Berre pond. You can also reach Marseille and it's sandy beaches in just thirty minutes by car. 

Provençal Charm

Pool / Snooker Table

This villa was once a wine-maker’s house, nestled amongst the overflowing vineyards of the Languedoc region. Today, it’s the perfect holiday destination for wine connoisseurs and non-drinkers alike. Surrounded by a charming village and spacious gardens, this is a true escape from the hustle and bustle of modern life. Choose to indulge in a glass of red as you challenge your guests to a round of pool, sip a refreshing white after a dip in the L-shaped swimming pool, or simply retain a clear head as you soak up an atmosphere so special you’ll want to bottle it. 


The Echantillon

Juicer

This villa nestled in the heart of a picturesque Provencal landscape offers a comfy retreat for a family or a group of friends. Just a short drive from the village of Lacoste, you’ll enjoy peace and tranquillity here, while at the same time being close to all the amenities. We love the outdoor areas, with a heated pool and those calming vistas to be admired from the terrace and the large garden. There’s also a pétanque field here, making this a classic French country escape. Inside, expect a melange of period features and modern elegance – although not the largest home in our collection, you’d be hard-pressed to find one with more charm. 

Chic & Buzzy

Begin your day in one of the nearby cafes and then walk through Place de la Comédie – only four–minutes away. The train station and tramways are a two–minute walk from this home, making it a great spot to connect with the rest of the city. 

French food lovers won’t want to miss Halles Laissac market – it’s only a minute's walk away and it offers a wonderful selection of regional delicacies. With your basket full, make your way home to put on some music, open the doors and share a beautiful meal in this special setting. 

The Blue Flowers

Access to Beach

When you stay at this apartment in La Ciotat, you’ll be just steps away from the Sunday market. It’s also under a five-minute stroll to the Old Port and fifteen minutes from La Ciotat’s beaches. The home itself has been renovated by an architect and includes a large living-dining room with a sofa bed, which guests five and six will be sleeping on. One thing to note is that there's air conditioning in the living space and the main bedroom only. There is also a children's bedroom with a bunk bed off the main bedroom, so this place is ideal for families.

The Sunday Market

Tucked away in an elegant Haussmann-style building in the heart of Montpellier, this gorgeous apartment is the perfect setting for a relaxing city break to the south of France. Whether you’re visiting with friends or family, you’ll love unwinding in this classy home, which comes equipped with its own private terrace, perfect for dining alfresco with all your favourite people. Wake up early and treat yourself to a fresh cup of coffee at the patio table or enjoy a long lie-in in your cosy bedroom before setting off for a day of sightseeing in one of Occitania’s most famous cities. 

Situated within easy reach of all the major attractions, this home is perfectly placed for exploring everything that Montpellier has to offer. Gaze out at the Arc de Triomphe from Promenade du Peyrou, immerse yourself in nature at the city’s beautiful botanical garden, or get your fill of Gothic architecture at the stately Cathédrale Saint-Pierre. Whatever your mood, you’re in the right place.

Marble & Mimosa

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

Tucked away in the ancient heart of Montpellier, this sophisticated home blends its period features with modern styling. Set in among the warren of narrow streets, close to the opera, the cathedral and museums, it's a surprisingly quiet retreat. Here you'll climb the stairs to your apartment, set within a traditional building dating from the 1700s. And although it's been thoroughly modernised, you'll still see plenty of character details like high ceilings, exposed beams and pretty windows.

The sociable space is painted all-white, with a smart wood floor and a pretty well-equipped kitchen. There's a Juliet balcony in the living room and a sofa bed which boosts the capacity to up to four guests. A comfortable, stylish home in one of the best locations in town, we think you'll love it. And they do say that the best way to experience Montpellier is to get lost in it, so feel free to wander the streets and discover the wonderful restaurants and open-air music performances on your doorstep.
