This home is a home away from home. It is ideally located on a gorgeous mountainside with views in every direction. It was better than we anticipated from the description. Everything was orderly and well stocked, the owner provided very good service, and I've already recommended this property to business associates. The nearby towns are unique, great hiking, convenient to many restaurants. Antibes and Saint Tropez, as well as Nice are all within comfortable driving distance. I would absolutely go back.

We had a fabulous time in Seillans, the house was brilliant for a large party.

It was furnished beautifully throughout, with everything we required.

Aurelie (the housekeeper) was on hand if we needed her.

The boys spent the whole week playing ping pong on the terrace, whilst the girls lazed in the sun loungers and wished the house was theirs!!

Such a great house for 'hanging out' in that we didn't do an awful lot of sight seeing! But we did enjoy walking around the town and generally pottering around. Will have to come back again and venture further afield!

Would highly recommend this property to anybody. Andy and Lisa were hugely helpful, easy drive from Nice airport, great French cheese, cheap wine, stunning surroundings - we'll be back!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home, which accommodated our group of 7 beautifully. The garden, pool, and terraces were a lovely way to enjoy the Provencal views. A quiet reading room off the dining room provided a nice space for morning yoga. Seillans is a very picturesque and friendly village and we had a great time walking in the surrounding hills.

We were a larger group from various destinations meeting up to celebrate a year of 'significant' birthdays. The house was everything described on this website and more!

The house is located towards the top of the village, and has a lovely outlook over the hills and valleys. It is roomy and extremely well-equipped, making it very simple just to settle in and not worry about anything. Parking is very conveniently located just across the road.

There are lots of delightful spots inside and out to while away the hours - the fruiting fig tree and grapevine were a big hit! If you have a need for exercise, the pool is refreshing, or there are many walks in the neighbouring countryside. We did a walk down to the bories, and another day walk over to Fayence.

The villa and Seillans truly exceeded all expectations, and we were just thrilled to be there. I can't recommend it enough.

Lovely house in stunning location. Well equiped with fantastic pool and garden and glorious village and mountain views. Lots to do nearby including walking and sightseeing or swimming in the nearby lake. Very good local restaurants just a short walk. Would definitely recommend to friends.

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.

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.

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 !

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.

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.
