Villa FR5170

With panoramic views due to its location high above the French countryside, this is the setting for an unforgettable holiday.
The central courtyard is enclosed by ancient fortified walls, with 13 bedrooms spread amongst the Main house, Commons, Caves and Pavilions.
Monumental fireplaces and period furnishings sit in the two medieval caves, now home to spacious suites.
Situated above the caves is the main house, which boasts six bedrooms and a number of terraces for admiring the scenery.
Three bedrooms and a kids room can be found int eh 17th century commons building whilst two studios are found in the Pavilions.
Beautifully designed and warming, the common spaces have an open plan floor space to give the traditional charm, along with the comfortable furnishings.
You will never be short of things to do with the spectacular pool and gardens outside and the indoor games room and cinema room for rainy days.
Outside, go for an explore on the bike, or visit many of the wineries of medieval towns nearby.
