Rent from owners direct in South of France

Maxime has a 6 bedroom villa with private pool in Grimaud, France.

There have been many refurbishments since we bought Chateau de Lamostonie in 2007. For example, each double bedroom has been furnished with an en-suite bathroom, the entrance hall has been opened up, and the old wooden staircase replaced with majestic stone. Located between the river Dordogne (to the North) and Lot (to the South) Chateau de Lamostonie offers many sightseeing opportunities, such as Rocamadour, Sarlat, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, the pont Valentre at Cahors, and some spectacular caves with underground rivers and prehistoric paintings. The tennis court, swimming pool and barbecue, however, keep us from wanting to be anywhere else during the summer months. We hope you will enjoy being at Lamostonie as much as we do.

Young minded and relaxed, we always push ourselves to the limit for the well-being of our guests because our sense of hospitality is at its highest level. In 2010 we discovered the Domaine de Monteils in a neglected state since decades. This former priory of the 9th century had lived several successive lives for 1200 years. We immediately began its restoration which took 10 years. Fascinated by architecture and modern design, the renovation of this historic building was our vocation, just as we like to meet people from all walks of life.

We have owned this three bedroom apartment in Cannes for nearly ten years. Our favourite thing about the apartment is its location in the centre of Cannes, but still only a five minute walk to the beach and to La Croisette. I first visited Cannes in my early teens with my parents and have always been attracted to the city.

We, Peter and Marjolein hope that you will enjoy an unforgettable stay with us.

We bought the house in 2005 after renting it from the previous owners for many years. About 25 years ago we rented for the first time in Valbonne and instantly fell in love with the house, the space, the beautiful view from the terrace, the charming village of Valbonne and the tranquility of Domaine Val d’Azur. In 2005 (we had rented the house now or 5 times) we were called by the previous owners that they wanted to sell the villa. After the shock about this came the idea to buy the house, after all, such a beautiful house in such a beautiful location does not pass by quickly and we knew the house through and through. We are very careful with our property and hope that you will also enjoy our home just as we have always done. We wish you a fantastic holiday, with lots of sun, swimming and enjoying all the good of the Provence in the South of France has to offer.

Une hôte inspirée, entre douceur et précision Je m'appelle Aline, et La Valentine est bien plus qu'une maison : c’est un lieu que j’aime profondément et que je prends plaisir à partager. Chaque séjour est une expérience que j’orchestre avec soin, tout est pensé pour refléter l’âme du lieu. J’accorde une attention particulière à l’harmonie visuelle et émotionnelle : j’associe les couleurs douces, les textures naturelles et les mots choisis pour créer une atmosphère fluide, apaisante et cohérente. Même les informations pratiques sont reformulées avec une touche poétique, pour que chaque consigne devienne un sourire. Je ne suis pas les tendances : je la transforme. J’aime les teintes subtiles (vert sauge, lin, terracotta) les gestes simples qui font toute la différence, et les supports que l’on affine jusqu’à ce qu’ils soient justes, beaux et porteurs de sens. La Valentine est le reflet de cette vision : un lieu de partage, de calme et de lumière, où chaque détail raconte une histoire, et où l’on se sent accueilli avec sincérité.

Francois has a 2 bedroom apartment in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, France.

We moved to the Ariege in 2016 after many years of teaching in the UK. The natural beauty of the region was what first attracted us - there is so much variety with the Pyrenees close by whilst still being easily accessible for Toulouse, Carcassonne and the Mediterranean coast. We love the peaceful nature of our grounds which are full of birdsong and wildlife. It is a great place to relax and unwind and still close enough to local shops, bars and restaurants.
