Beautiful Provencal Rural Villa with Private Garden and Outdoor Pool - Callian, Var Reviews

We had a lovely two weeks here last summer. The villa is as described, somewhat rustic in the living areas but with very comfortable bedrooms and efficient modern bathrooms. Mosquitos abound but are easy to deal with. I suspect 8 adults would be tight but for us it was a perfect lazy summer holiday. The pool is deep and cool with plenty of places to laze in the sun or shade.

And oh so quiet. We are not fans of the crowd and if you wish for seclusion you have found it.

Some issues with the pool filter which were dealt with once we made Lucinda aware of the problem.

Lovely area. The local lake is great fun and the activities very reasonably priced. Convenient supermarket at the bottom of the hill on which the two villages sit. We went to restaurants in Fayance, Callian and Montaroux all lovely to watch to world go by. The beach at Frejus was a single trip but made a refreshing change. The village of Mons, the Caves at St Cezaire and the Gorges de Verdon were all pleasant trips. Grasse and the sweet factory at Pont du Loup were also fun.

Would I recommend to a friend? Yes. We would consider going again but we tend to like to try different places each year. Could it be improved? A hammock would have allowed me to truly relax in the shade but otherwise no!
