Wonderful family holiday

We stayed for a week with our three boys, 12,11 and 8. We had a wonderful time. The house was an perfect base for us all. We enjoyed time by the pool, on the terrace, the boys played table tennis and I loved the peacefulness of the house. All that and still within an hours drive to so much more. We visited the gorge du verdon, the beach and aqualand at Frejus, the water park at the nearby lake and markets in Fayence. Seillans is a very pretty village and we enjoyed a very pleasant family meal in the square one evening. Everything was communicated very well before check-in and we coordinated to meet Serge at the property on arrival. He was exceptionally helpful in making sure we had everything we needed and set up the pool area for us with cushions for sun loungers and pool toys for the kids. We initially were a bit surprised not to have a shower in the bathroom, only a bath, but this did not materialise to be a problem as there was also a very effective outdoor shower by the pool if you preferred. All the bedrooms also have their own sink and vanity unit which would be helpful if you had a number of adults sharing. Overall we had a really great week and we would be very happy to return.

Un havre de bien-être.

La maison de Claude (le propriétaire) fait partie de ces endroits où l’on se sent bien et immédiatement à l’aise. C’est à la fois simple et aménagé avec goût. La maison est équipée de tout le nécessaire, il n’y manque rien. La propreté est irréprochable et la literie très confortable. Le coin piscine est spacieux et le bassin de belles dimensions pour pouvoir y nager à son aise. L’endroit est particulièrement calme et approprié pour qui recherche un séjour loin des tumultes de la vie, tout en étant à quelques minutes en voiture du très joli village de Seillans. La communication avec Claude est rapide et efficace. Nous avons affaire ici à une personne de bon goût, très réactive et qui a soin de faire en sorte que le séjour se déroule pour le mieux. Il est à noter que Claude ne vit pas sur place, mais en cas de besoin il est possible de faire appel à Serge qui habite à quelques kilomètres de la propriété. Serge (que je salue ici) s’occupe de la remise des clés et entretient la piscine. Nous recommandons la maison de Claude et y reviendrions avec plaisir. Un grand merci pour tout, Claude.

Une villa tres agréable dans une très belle région

Dans un cadre naturel à l’écart des grands axes, cette belle maison est située sur un très vaste terrain et dispose d’une grande piscine, de belles terrasses et des aires de jeux. Un bel endroit où séjourner en famille ou en couple. Une seule salle de bain et un seul wc seront les seuls « inconvénients « si vous êtes trop nombreux. De nombreuses visites à réaliser aux allentours (très beaux villages).

Eine Oase in der Provence auch im Herbst sehr schön!

Das Haus ist sehr großzügig gestaltet und sehr sauber. Die Ausstattung lässt keine Wünsche offen, wir haben a.u. aufgrund der Tischtennisplatte gebucht und haben diese oft benutzt. Der Pool ist Ende Oktober erwartungsgemäß sehr kalt, aber auch den haben wir zumindest kurz benutzt.

Lovely stay in a quiet location !!

Gorgeous villa in Seillans! The pool area is beautiful and the house is great for a family of 6 or a group of friends. A car is definitely needed!! Although only a half an hour walk into Seillans village, it's very hilly and wouldn't be a good walk at night. The hosts were lovely and very quick to respond. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Entspannung pur

Ruhe und Entspannung in der Natur, einfach wunderbar. Ein großes Haus mit 3 Schlafzimmern und vielen Sitzmöglichkeiten im Innen- wie im Außenbereich. Viele Freizeiteinrichtungen wie Volleyballnetz zwischen den Olivenbäumen, Tischtennisplatte und ein Kicker standen zur Verfügung. Der Pool war nicht beheizt. Die Küche war sehr gut ausgestattet, vor allem gute und neue Töpfe. Einziges Manko, war das Bad. Es fehlt eine Dusche. In der Badewanne zu duschen war sehr umständlich und kein Vergnügen, aber man kommt zurecht. Wir waren nur zu zweit dort.

Fantastic location and pool

Lovely old property, the open plan layout was very useful. The bedrooms are quite basic and we didn't have many towels but the kitchen area was well equipped and the seating area comfortable. The real joy of this place is the outside space: fabulous terrace with amazing views. A wonderful pool surrounded by olive trees with plenty of seating to follow the shade as the day progressed. And the basketball, volleyball, table football and table tennis were really appreciated by the children. Our host was very attentive and responded immediately to all messages.

Relaxing vacation in a French country home with a 5 star pool

We had two beautiful weeks in mid-July 2023 at this countryside house. It was just what we had hoped for, spacious and comfortable, in a quiet rustic location. We were delighted with the local village of Seillans, and also loved discovering other pretty historic villages in the area. We had delicious local restaurant meals (2 visits to La Gloire de Mon Pere for vegetable risotto!).This house was an ideal base for our day trips to nearby destinations (Grasse, Antibes, Gorges du Verdon, and more) and was the perfect refuge from the heat. The A/C and stunningly beautiful pool kept us happy and cool with many blissful days of not doing much at all - just our holiday rhythm. The kitchen was well-equipped with excellent appliances, cooking utensils, plenty of dishes and flatware, making it very easy to prepare meals. We enjoyed eating outside on the patio, under the shade of the bamboo awning in the mornings, and out in the open later in the evening when we could watch the stars appear. We applied mosquito repellant and burned citronella candles but couldn't escape some bites. Yet it was worth it to soak up as much French country as possible. It will make us happy during our long Canadian winters to remember our time in this special place. (Please note I mentioned a need for new pillows and towels to Claude and he was very gracious and intended to make necessary upgrades!) I recommend this vacation home to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway in a beautiful part of France.

Idyllisch gelegenes Haus mit traumhaftem Anwesen

Wir haben eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem einzigartigen Haus verbracht. Sowohl die Besitzer als auch Serge, der Verwalter, sind sehr darum bemüht, dass man einen tollen Urlaub in dem Haus verbringt. Das Haus liegt einsam- hier kommt man wirklich zur Ruhe. Der grandiose Pool wurde von uns täglich benutzt und die Kinder hatten viel Spaß an den zahlreichen Spielgegenständen (Tischtennisplatte, Tischkicker, Brettspiele). Der Garten ist sehr weitläufig und die vielen verschiedenen Sitzgelegenheiten sehr praktisch. Dass manche Türe klemmt, die gewöhnungsbedürftige Dusche oder es unter den Betten in den Zimmern nicht 100% sauber war, hat unsere Freude an dem Haus nicht getrübt. Ein schönes Haus in einem traumhaften Garten.

A real gem of a place.

La Bougane is a home from home, very relaxing and such a beautiful spot. We had 4 nights here and the kids loved all the activities - the basketball, table football and ping pong were especially popular. I loved all the places to sit and relax. The terrace overlooking the pool and olive grove towards the mountains is very special and the view is one to remember. Claude was so helpful and on hand via text to answer any questions we had and was very helpful in getting the TV sorted so we could enjoy the Lionesses winning the Euros! The pool is just lovely and there is always a bit of shade to be found from the trees so that you can sit and relax and choose to be out of the full sun. We really enjoyed our time here and loved Seillans, had a great pizza in Fayance and two awesome days at Lac de St Cassien - such a beautiful place at La plage Americain. Thank you Claude and Aline, we had the best time!
