Exceptional Manor House with Private Pool, centre of medieval Seillans, France Reviews

We were 11 friends, all "Girls" (between 20 and 57...), who shared a wonderful week at Andy`s and Lisa`s property. The location of the house is just exceptional, looking over the landscape of La Provence and also situated in the middle of this lovely ancient village.

The house itself is very large and well equipped with all you might need, the garden with its pool is a little hideaway with figue- trees, olivetrees and all kinds of blooming flowers. Getting into contact with the local people is easy as the Petanque- ground is just in front of the house!

We will surely come back again!

Andy and Lisa's lovely home was the perfect base for our No Boundaries Art Workshop's stay in Provence this past June. This beautiful vila is perfectly situated overlooking a charming square with a bubbling fountain, is steps to the petanque courts where the locals invited us to play, and a two-minute walk to our favorite restaurant, La Glorie de Mon Pere, where we were serenaded by strolling musicians and welcomed like a regular from our first meal. The villa is spacious, with plenty of room for our group of artists, with well-appointed bedrooms, most with views of the town and surrounding hills, and a very large dining room with a separate sitting room. We couldn't have been more pleased and are hoping to return next year. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We booked Mason Hirondelles for a big family holiday, with people coming from the UK, Ireland, and the USA, with ages ranging from 76 to 2. It was the 'Americans' first trip to mainland Europe, and our parents were viewing it as possibly the last big family holiday where we were all together, so it needed to be good. It was. The house itself is beautiful and spacious (enough room for my 17 year old niece and 16 year old nephew to escape the oldies). The pool was gorgeous (and private) as was the garden. Seillans itself is absolutely stunning and exactly what we wanted. The house is in the middle of the village and is a few steps from two lovely restaurants on the main square. We all agreed that we had the best holiday ever and this house and village will forever be in our hearts. Allan

I would just like to thank Andy and Lisa for allowing us to share their beautiful home . The whole experience from our first phone call to our departure could not have been more seemless. We gathered to celebrate my birthday a group of family and friends from mid 20's to mid 50's and everyone without exception had a wonderful time. The property is stunning - the photographs do not do it justice, the gardens are a vertitable larder supplying us with lemons and limes for g and t's , grapes for cheese and figs a plenty for baking stuffed with

locally sourced goat's cheese, magnifique ! The welcome we received from the local restaurants was outstanding particular thanks to Eric proprietor of La Gloire de Mon Pere who made my birthday so memorable and to his Dad for the wonderful Millefeuille he baked (Andy you were right it is truly amazing !)

The location is perfect for exploring - so close to Antibes and Cannes , St Tropez is good for a spot of people watching, St Maxine is

also worth a visit.

As you can gather a fabulous time was had by all. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property and area so any one of my friends. We hope to return again soon , my Uncle has actually suggested making it an annual event !

3 generations of our family(5 children and 5 adults) spent 14 wonderfull days in the villa at Seillans. every detail of the promotion of this accommodation was accurate and , for me, exceeded expectations. impecably clean and well maintained, the location exceptional for dining , exploring and relaxing. i will bore my friends to death with my stories of this stay and could not really note any dislikes. our 5 year old grand daughter wrote in her daily diary"today i lived in a beautiful house".

This is a fantastic character building, on the edge of an atmospheric medieval village. It is very spacious, in good order throughout, and fitted with high quality furnishings. The garden is large, laid out on multiple levels with terraces providing plenty of scope for outdoor dining, and while on the edge of the village, feels quite secluded and private.

Seillans is a pretty village, without ever feeling too touristy. A boulangerie is a couple of minutes walk down through the village - ideal for early morning croissants and baguettes. There are two restaurants directly opposite - the chatter and bustle from these drifts up to the conservatory adding to the atmosphere in the house in the evening.

The house is well suited for anyone who wants to experience the character of Seillans - everything is a short walk away. If you're looking for total peace and quiet you would be better off looking for a villa deep in the woods, but this I think would be missing out on everything on offer in the village.

There are plenty of opportunities for activities and day trips in the surrounding area. Walking is well catered for, there are a number of marked trails in the area, with leaflets produced by the local tourist office.

The owner was helpful, and always responded to queries promptly. The local guardian was friendly and accommodating, dealing with our unusual arrival and departure times without problem.

In all, Seillans is a good base for exploring the surrounding area, the house itself a really atmospheric location from which to experience it.

Lovely house in a wonderful town location. Fantastic pool and garden with great views and restaurants and shops on the doorstep.

Many activities nearby including swimming in lake Cassien, boating, walking, horse riding, site seeing - we even went quad biking in the mountains.

We would definitely return and recommend to our friends.

Stayed at this wonderful property with some friends in the lead up to my wedding in the next village. Was perfect. The feel of a country house with fab pool, great garden, with lots of nooks and crannies to escape if needs be, yet in the middle of the most beautiful village so no need to jump in the car to get bread, visit the lovely restaurants or wander the pretty streets. Have no hesitation in recomending it to others. Book it and enjoy !

The property and village suppassed our expectations!

All descriptions regarding location, layout and facilities were very accurate. The property easily accommodated our number of 10 in all areas: pool side; indoor and outdoor dining; and lounge.

We found the property to be very clean and well maintained with plenty of helpful information about the workings of the property and things to do and see in the surrounding area.

We found the owners and repersentative who greeted us to be very helpful and prompt!

I would highly recommend this property to friends and would hope to return again.

Excellent house for a large family gathering with comfortable beds. Plenty of internal and external seating.

Beautiful location in attractive village with good restaurants just across the road.

Owners answered all questions immediately. We would recommend and would like to rent again.
