Great property, home-from-home. Everything that you need to make your stay perfect is there. Ann and Eugene have thought of everything. Great to have your own pool, especially in those very hot days! We have stayed many times and hope to continue.
Very nice villa that gave a beautiful holiday stay
We spent 2 weeks in the villa and enjoyed every day. It is a quiet area in close distance to the village. The pool is very nice and we spent a lot of time there in the warm and nice weather. The location is ideal for trips in the area and to visit restaurants in Fayence and shop at Super U. The villa is well equiped and cleaned and a nice outdoor area. We would like to come back at a later occasion.
Thank you Ann and Eugene for your lovely holiday home it was blissful having air conditioning. We enjoyed the inside accommodation which was very calming and relaxing and outside the pool was exceptional and we swam
Mornings afternoons and evenings thank
You for it - and the suggestions
The house book might be good to add Eugene s suggestions cor outings which were excellent
We loved our time thee visiting local villages as well as playing boules
We had a wonderful second stay at this beautiful villa which has everything you need for a perfect holiday. We enjoyed visiting the nearby villages, Monaco by train and St Tropez by boat from St Raphael as well as beaches and mountain gorges. We also found time to relax by the villa's amazing pool in the peaceful garden. The air conditioning ensured a restful nights sleep.
You wouldn't find a better place for a holiday. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful villa, we had a wonderful holiday
Outstanding accomodation in the hinterland of the CĂŽte d'azur
We had a very pleasant time in a well-equipped and spacious house with its large and calm surrounding.
The large pool and the terrace with its deck-chairs were comfortable places for recreation.
The nearer (Fayence, Seillans, Tourrette, Callian, Montaroux) and farer (from St. Tropez to Nizza) surrounding could be visited without any problems by bike and car.
In the end always kind communication with Ann, the owner of the property.
Absolutely stunning, the photos do not do it justice
Having just returned from a lovely relaxing week at this fabulous villa my family & I canât wait to return. Everything you could possibly need is available to you at this incredible property & Anns attention to detail with preholiday literature is brilliant. We as a family are not at all fluent in French but got on fine in the area although we didnât go far as we were more than happy to laze around the pool all day & eat and drink at the villa most evenings. I can not recommend this villa enough for a 5 star property, absolutely brilliant
We enjoyed a tremendous family holiday in this beautiful and well-equipped villa. The villa was all that we had hoped for and was beautifully decorated with many lovely touches.
Although we mainly stayed in the villa enjoying the large and well-heated pool and the garden wildlife (no tortoises sadly but lots of different birds) when we did venture out to see the local area we were struck by the beauty of its villages and its friendly locals.
We are so thankful to Ann and the property manager for providing us with such a stress free experience and for answering all our many questions quickly and helpfully.
We would definitely like to return in the future
Ann's house is a great place to stay if you want to be close to the Cote d'Azur but away from the hustle of the coast.
The house is very clean, spacious and well equipped. We went as a family of four adults but six people would not be cramped. A highlight is the lovely pool and the wilder garden area is a haven for wildlife.
The house is set in a quiet village about 45 minutes from the coast. The fascinating town of Fayence is ten minutes away, with its brilliant market, boulangerie and cafes.
Communication with Ann was first class and the property is accurately described in the listing. We had a great two weeks
We had a lovely stay at this villa. Ideally placed to allow for trips to the lakes, beach and Monaco. The villa itself flows wonderfully from indoors to out and has a really good feel about it. We did stay late into the season, following a significant dry spell and a little needed tlc is needed to the pool and surrounding area is the only reason I didnât give this five stars. Unfortunately the village was closed for half of the holiday which is not a fault of the property but worth considering and bearing in mind if you travel during the last week of the school summer holidays. I would absolutely love to return but would come early in the holidays rather than the end. Ann was wonderful with help and communication.
Myself, my husband, adult daughter and boyfriend stayed for a week at the beginning of September 2024, together with our small dog. The gated property is simply fabulous, beautifully decorated and equipped with everything you need and more, we like to source local food and cook and ate outside by the beautiful pool and inside too in the stunning dining room when the storm came.
The property was spacious, cool and clean. The lady in the local boulangerie was very pleasant providing gluten free bakery too. We had a beautiful meal at the L'auberge Fleurie in Fayence and fantastic moules in San Raphael, but did not need to travel too much further as we had driven a long way from England and had visited nearby places in previous years but,simply, because the property was so lovely, we were just happy to be there and enjoy family time together in the peaceful surroundings. Communication with hosts and managers was really helpful throughout and we are so grateful for your attention to detail and your obvious care. Thank you -we would love to visit again
This villa was the best we have ever stayed in. It is tasefully decorated, spotlessly clean and has everything you could possibly want for a perfect holiday. The garden is totally private and the pool is properly heated for swimming morning , noon and night. It is also big and a good depth with steps along one side. The garden has sun all day and tables and chairs to eat in the sun or shade and loungers to relax. It was lovely to have the air conditioning for a restful night in the comfy beds.
There were lots of places to visit close by as well as trips to the coast and a train trip to Monaco along the coast which was fantastic. There are also supermarkets close by as well as a bakers, butchers and Restuarants in the village a short walk away.
We really enjoyed our holiday and hope to return again as many others have. Thank you Anne and Eugene for letting us use your amazing villa.

We had two amazing weeks in the villa where we enjoyed the beautiful swimming pool and the house itself. In the hot weather we spent many days just sunbathing and cooling down in the pool. We were 6 persons in our group and for us this villa was perfect.
Originally we booked it for 2020, but of course we had to postpone due to covid. In the dialogue we had with the owner in this process, we really felt that they wanted us to feel welcome as guests and make sure that everything was in order. When we arrived at the house, this impression was confirmed as everything was in perfect order and we could just settle in.
In the surrounding area there are plenty of villages, cities, beaches and nature to see and explore. The challenge is to choose where to go.
Thank you to Ann and Eugene for letting us rent the villa. It was perfect for us and made our vacation a time to remember for everyone in our family.

We absolutely loved our holiday at Les Colles. The pool is amazing , lovely temperature and being surrounded by nature was so special. Ann has thought of everything to make it a home away from come. The village is a short walk away and we used the bakery and butchers and the cafe on the square regularly . We have already booked for next year
We have enjoyed our time as a family very much, the house is very well equipped to the smallest detail, in the kitchen lacks nothing. The beds were very comfortable and we slept peacefully thanks to the canopy bed mosquito nets. If we had any questions we could always contact Ann or Peter and received prompt answers. If you want to complain on a high level, it would have been nice if the gorgeous pool had been heated a bit. The weather at the end of May / beginning of June was unfortunately not yet so warm. All in all, we had a wonderful vacation in the house, which we will remember with pleasure.
Eine schöne Villa mit authentischer hochwertiger Einrichtung im provenzalisch â britischem Stil.
Das Wohnzimmer und die Schlafzimmer sind liebevoll eingerichtet â das âElternzimmerâ sogar mit Ankleideraum und angrenzenden Bad. Die KĂŒche hat alles zu bieten was man braucht, besonders der 2. KĂŒhlschrank mit EiswĂŒrfelzubereiter hat es uns angetan. Endlich mal viel Platz fĂŒr den Einkauf.
Die Terrasse und vor allem der Pool sind toll, die Temperatur ist ideal zum Erfrischen aber auch zum morgendlichen Schwimmen angenehm und nicht zu kalt.
Die Tipps der Gastgeberin (schriftlich auf Englisch) sind sehr prĂ€zise und hilfreich â vielen Dank Ann!
Der Hausmeister-Service ist gut und sehr freundlich, auch wenn es sonntags mal ein Problem gibt, wird es sofort geregelt. Vielen Dank an Stefan und Peter.
Stefan wies uns zum GlĂŒck auch auf die Wildschweine hin, die auf die umzĂ€umten GrundstĂŒcke kommen können, um im HausmĂŒll zu wĂŒhlen, so dass wir zumindest vorbereitet waren, als eines morgens die Tiere im Garten standen (incl. Frischlingen und Keiler) und erst nach einer Weile verschwanden. Vor einer Konfrontation raten jagdkundliche Menschen ab, wenn Jungtiere in der Rotte sind, vor allem wenn man wie wir einen Hund hat.
Die wahren Plagegeister waren allerdings viel kleiner â es gab eine jahreszeitbedingte StechmĂŒckenflut, der kein Authan und keine Duftkerze Einhalt bieten konnte. Ab 18.00h mussten wir dann langsam ins Haus, um nicht noch mehr Stiche zu bekommen. Zum GlĂŒck ist es im Haus auch sehr schön und die Schlafzimmer sind mit Netzen und VorhĂ€ngen ausgestattet.
Das Fazit ist trotzdem durchweg positiv â ein tolles Haus in einer ansprechenden Gegend um Fayence mit guten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und relativ naher CĂŽte dâ Azur.

We hope you have a wonderful time on holidays at our villa and we are always available in person on the phone or email to help with any questions you have before you go. Please read our reviews to see what our guests have experienced.
We love escaping to the sunny warm weather and the gorgeous food in the South of France. We visit the villa mostly in the school holidays and are amazed at how excellent the area is as a holiday destination for families with young children. My parents spend time at the villa in May and October when the weather is also great and you can explore at your leisure. My father is a keen yachtsman, he spends hours browsing around the yachts at Frejus harbor and was enthralled with the beauty of the Tall Ships which come to St Tropez in October. My mother loves the glamour, shopping and fine restaurants of Cannes which is an easy 30 minute drive from the villa.
Guests will enjoy a spacious villa which also benefits from the convenience of having the outside terrace and heated pool close to the villa. The villa is in a large gated plot in a quiet residential area yet only 5 minutes walk from the local village. The location is excellent for exploring the local area and beyond. Our representative who will meet you speaks fluent English and French. He lives locally and has invaluable knowledge on the local area. He is available throughout your stay to answer any questions you have while you are enjoying your holiday.
