With eye-catching architecture and a stunning location in the hills above Montpellier, this villa is bound to impress. It's so well-equipped that simply choosing how to unwind might be a challenge – will you head to the extensive indoor spa, take a dip in the pool (there are two), or opt for a lounger on the terrace? For guests looking to combine work and play, there's a dedicated office and meeting room – or take the work outside to the veranda and cap off the day with a barbecue. We wouldn't be surprised if you spend all day at home – especially when you've got those magical views to accompany you – but it's just a twenty-minute drive to Montpellier.

The Birds of Paradise

Only a short stroll away from quiet restaurants and a quaint bakery, this 18th-century home is nuzzled in the medieval village of Caux – not far from Pézenas, where intimate art galleries and antique shops await.

Inside, you'll fall in love with this home's historic features and contemporary design. Each bedroom pays homage to a modern musical legend. Walk beneath vaulted ceilings into an open-plan living space for coffee and croissants, then head up to the sunroom and play chess. 

Grill brochettes for a barbecue lunch and snack around the patio. If you've hired a car, why not drive for thirty minutes to the French Riviera for an afternoon adventure? Later, return and serve local wine from your outdoor bar while you set up a family game of pétanque.

As you swim in the salt-water pool, hire a private chef to prepare dinner in your immaculate kitchen. Enjoy a French feast at the formal dining table, where you can plan tomorrow's trip to Pézenas. Then, gather to watch the sunset over the garden before enjoying a movie night in the cosy den.

Where the Choir Sings

Discover the picturesque city of Montpellier from this elegant, homely apartment. Nestled on a quiet street a stone throw's away from the old town, this home is a wonderful choice for a group of friends or a family getaway. 

Cloaked in soft-toned shades, the apartment exudes a natural warmth. It's full of heart, with a wonderfully sociable kitchen. The kitchen island takes pride of place in the centre of the room, so preparing food easily becomes a group affair. Whether that's chopping or just chatting while drinking wine on the stools, it's a space for everyone to enjoy together. From the kitchen, you can access the charming balcony space. With verdant foliage coming into view, it's a lovely place to savour a cocktail or two. 

When it comes to exploring the city, you're in a fantastic location. The old town is a short walk away – why not stop off at the oldest botanical garden in France, Le Jardin des Plantes? After a nice walk around the gardens, the Cathedrale St Pierre, Musée Fabre, Promenade du Peyrou, and many other historical sights await. 

Heart of the Home

Offering panoramic vistas from inside the ramparts of Avignon, this is a storybook setting, no doubt. Wake to light-filled, contemporary interiors in one of the two en-suite suites here, before enjoying your morning coffee alongside views of the Papal Palace. When you're ready to seize the day, head out and discover the best of this city on foot – particularly as its central location makes it a solid shout for those travelling without a car. Split over two floors, with lots of space and home touches, this penthouse would make a great option for both families and friends when in town. 

Elegant Valley

Garden Escape is an old farmhouse that's been meticulously restored by the heritage-loving host. While plenty of period features remain, the interior is mostly furnished with high-end minimalist pieces that create a delightful hybrid atmosphere. Still, we don't expect you to be spending most of your time admiring the furniture — the outdoor parts of this home are far more exciting than the insides. From the alfresco spots and loungers scattered around the garden to the huge swimming pool that's perfect for  a morning swim, Garden Escape does its name justice. When you're ready to venture a little farther, the charming town of St-Remy where Van Gogh painted the famous 'Starry Night' is only a short walk away, but since you'll be staying in the heart of Provence, every road will take you to a beautiful market town. Bring back a nice bottle of wine and enjoy watching the sunset from the garden. Retreat to the breezy living room for a movie night, and prepare for another day of relaxation. 

Garden Escape

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

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

Looking for a central spot from which to explore Montpellier? We’ve found just the thing. This stylish and modern apartment has bags of French style, with stunning wooden parquet flooring, opulent furniture and eye-catching artwork in abundance. It’s located a stone’s throw from Montpellier Saint-Roch station – ideal if you’re arriving via public transport, or want to travel beyond Montpellier after your stay. It’s also close to a lot of historical hot spots and cultural landmarks, such as La Tour de la Babote and Place de la Comédie, where you can soak up some history. 

We recommend you start your day by throwing open the doors to your Juliet balcony and letting the gorgeous light shine into your beautiful lounge area. Enjoy a glass of freshly squeezed OJ while you recline on the sofa, and discuss your daily itinerary. Cook up a delicious French breakfast of crepes and coffee and tuck in all together around your smart breakfast bar, and head out for a busy day of exploring and adventuring, with plenty to see on your doorstep. When you return, have a soak in your lush bathtub, or write up some postcards to send home on your quaint desk, complete with a vintage typewriter. Then fall into your big comfy double bed, ready to do it all again the next day.

The Writer's Place

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

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

Sitting on the southern tip of France, this stylish home opens its doors onto the beauty of the Mediterranean coastline. 

Just a short drive from the fishing town of Sète, this is the perfect setting for families and friends to share the magic of seaside living. With its modern design and elegant styling, this is the kind of space that feels rejuvenating. From the moment you wake up, you’ll want to pause and savour the details that make this home special. Like watching the sunrise from the terrace or enjoying your morning coffee in the peaceful garden. 

The communal spaces are designed to feel intimate and relaxing – you can move to your own rhythm here. Spend slow days by the swimming pool or walk down to the beach with one of the paddleboards or kayaks. 

There are some wonderful restaurants in the charming village of Sète – only a fifteen–minute drive away. But we won’t be surprised if you want to dine at home. Light up the barbecue, pour a glass of local wine and watch the sunset over the horizon. 

The Emerald Sea

This beautifully bright apartment is in the heart of Montpellier, just 10 kilometres from the dazzling Mediterranean coast. It's a great space for a group of friends, exuding a youthful vibrancy that'll brighten up your days no end. We love its industrial-chic design, with cheerful touches of colour, stark against the bright white interior, and artwork that makes you want to get out and explore the great outdoors.

The kitchen island is the heart of the home here. It's where you'll be doing most of your eating, drinking, and chatting. Mornings are particularly lovely in this bright space, with sunlight travelling all the way up to the tall ceilings – you'll love gathering around the island, sipping fresh coffee, eating breakfast, and finalising the day's plans. 

Whether you're a history buff and have an adventurous spirit (or both, why not?), you'll love Montpellier. Its rich heritage means there are plenty of historical and cultural sights within walking distance, including the Saint-Pierre Cathedral, the Musée Fabre, the Promenade du Peyrou, and many more. On the other hand, its coastal location means there are exhilarating activities galore, including canyoning, climbing, hiking, swimming, horse riding, sailboat cruises, and more. Round off the day by picking up a local bottle of wine, the region is famous for it, and gather around your sociable kitchen island, reminiscing on the day's activities.
