Perched on a hilltop just outside the medieval village of Seillans, this home offers a tranquil retreat for a family or group of friends. Inside, the villa is unfussy, comfortable and well-equipped – although it's worth noting that you'll have to pay for bed linen here. But, it's the outside space that caught our eye. With sun-kissed terraces, a private heated pool, and the quiet of nature surrounding you, outdoor living is a must. The cherry on top is the summer kitchen, where guests can light the barbecue and enjoy alfresco dining to make the most of the sunny climate.
