Perfect French Cottage
Highly recommend this property, it was exactly what we were looking for, perfect French cottage . set in peaceful country side, spacious, comfortable, fantastic pool and outside areas. Better than the pictures. Fayence is lovely village, but would recommend having a car as steep climb to the village, but some lovely French restaurants, shops and market 3 times a week. Large supermarket in walking distance. Plenty to explore in surrounding areas, vineyards, lake with water activities, drive to Nice, Cannes, Monaco and many other French towns and villages. Owners Marc and Lorna who live near by were lovely, on hand if you need them but at same time don’t know they are are even there.

Lovely cottage for relaxing holiday.
This is the first place we chose for a two week holiday with our teenage boys (15 & 17) and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The review by David C from 2018 is still accurate on everything except that it’s even better. The relaxing pool days were just wonderful for all. We hope to be back again to this gorgeous area as it’s a perfect launching point for so many activities. Thanks to Marc and Lorna for their care and love of the property as it shows as a guest.

Superb cottage with fabulous outdoor space and pool
The cottage is tucked away at the end a small lane on the outskirts of Fayence, one of the many medieval villages that ‘perch’ in the hills here in Provence. It isn’t too far to walk into the village to the local Supermarket (Super U), boulangerie and tabac but from there it is quite a steep climb to get up to the centre where you’ll find the Market, Shops, Tourist Information Office and most of the restaurants and bars. If you do want to walk to the centre look for the shortcuts and steps that save you following the winding road up. If you prefer to drive there are quite a lot of parking spaces up there - we didn’t have any problem. The location is a great base to make day trips from - the Tourist Information Office are very helpful and previous guests at the cottage have left some information. It isn’t possible to do everything. From our experience this time we definitely recommend touring the surrounding villages for the architecture, markets, restaurants and craft shops; for breathtaking scenery go to Gorges de Verdon. and for perfume, shopping and more architecture go to Grasse! Within the cottage itself, we found the kitchen/dining area/social space well appointed with air conditioning and lots of home touches to make our stay easier and more enjoyable. The two large ensuite bedrooms each have a double bed plus a single bed. The beds were very comfortable, air conditioning effective and we always had piping hot water for showers. There is a lovely veranda so you can sit outside in the shade either at the bistro table sipping a coffee or relaxing on the sofa with some thing cooler. We did both! We BBQ’d most nights and loved having a separate outdoor dining area. Both the garden and pool areas are very nicely laid out and provide excellent spaces to both play, chill and relax in. They were discretely but well maintained during our stay. Mark and Lorna were very warm and friendly, ensured that we had all we needed to have a great stay at the cottage and were on hand to deal with any queries. Overall, we had a wonderful holiday and look forward to returning in the future.

We hebben een fantastisch verblijf gehad. Mark, de eigenaar heeft ons gastvrij ontvangen en alles laten zien. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien. In het echt is het mooier dan op de foto's. Vooral het buiten verblijf is erg mooi. De omgeving is leuk om uitstapjes te maken, je bent gemiddeld een uur van de grote plaatsen zoals Nice , Saint tropez verwijderd. Echt een aanrader!

Nice place in the countryside very close to Fayence
Very clean house and pool in very quiet place in rural area 1.5-2 km from big super market and the restaurants in Fayence. Occassionally you can hear and see small airplanes from a very small airfield for gliders nearby. Host live in neighbouring house but is very careful not to disturb.

Gezinsvakantie
Een aanrader! Wij hebben volop genoten van ons verblijf. Het huis was zeer netjes en verzorgd, recent opgefrist (nog niet zichtbaar op de foto's). De tuin en het zwembad werden gedurende ons verblijf op een heel discrete manier onderhouden door de eigenaar. Meer dan voldoende keukengerei voor 5 personen, makkelijk te bedienen gas BBQ. We hebben dankbaar gebruik gemaakt van de airco's in de woning. Voorzie wel een goede muggenspray. In de buurt van een vliegveldje voor sport- en zweefvliegtuigjes, die hoorde je wel in de buurt vliegen maar niet storend voor ons. Bakker, apotheek en grote supermarkt (Super U) binnen een straal van ongeveer 2 km. Wij zouden niet aarzelen om er nog eens te verblijven.

Wonderful and relaxed vacation
We spent two wonderful weeks in Mark's charming cottage. The house is ideally located for excursions towards the Mediterranean, to the Lac de Saint-Cassien (various leisure activities) and for trips through the many small mountain villages in the hinterland. And if you want to relax, you can choose between swimming in the large private pool, having barbecue on the terrace, napping on the sun beds or reading on the daybed on the veranda. Mark and his wife are super nice and happy to give tips for excursions, we really enjoyed the time and can only recommend the accommodation.

Prachtige plek in een mooie omgeving
Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien, twee ruime slaapkamers met aansluitende badkamer/toilet. Slaapkamers hebben airco, maar ook horren voor de ramen zodat je met open raam kan slapen (en in de verte de hanen kan horen kraaien en de ezel hoort balken). De keuken is goed uitgerust en buiten staat een (schone!!) gasbarbecue. Het zwembad is groter dan de meeste prive-zwembaden en eromheen staan lekkere ligstoelen, met kussens en parasol. De eigenaar (Mark) is bijzonder aardig en behulpzaam!! De afstand naar de supermarkt is te lopen (15+ minuten) en voor de wandelliefhebber is ook het centrum van Fayence te doen, maar je moet wel van een stukje bergopwaarts houden. Fayence zelf is een aardig plaatsje met mooie straatjes en lekkere restaurants. L'auberge Fleurie binnen loopafstand vlakbij de supermarkt bijvoorbeeld, of Le 8, een klein familierestaurantje met heerlijke streekproducen. Voor een echt goede pizza kan je naar Le bis, maar er zijn tal van andere mogelijkheden. In de omgeving kan je motorrijden, fietsen, wandelen, of je huurt een waterfiets op een van de stuwmeren (Lac St Cassien bijvoorbeeld).

Ganz toller Urlaub
Es hat alles gepasst. Das Haus ist sauber, hat eine gute Aufteilung, der Pool ist großartig, es ist alles sehr gepflegt, die Umgebung bietet einige Möglichkeiten. Mark ist ein toller Gastgeber, der immer zur Stelle war, uns aber trotzdem komplett unsere Ruhe gelassen hat. Sicherlich ist die Ausstattung des Hauses kein Luxus, aber zweckmäßig und wir haben uns sowieso vornehmlich draußen aufgehalten. Durch die Klimaanlage konnten wir sehr gut schlafen, die Betten waren auch sehr gut. Insgesamt absolut empfehlenswert!

Der perfekte Urlaub
Diese Ferienhaus ließ keine Wünsche offen. Mark und Lorna, die Besitzer, die gleich nebenan wohnten hießen uns herzlich willkommen und waren auch während des Urlaubs bei Fragen immer erreichbar. Zunächst lud der Aussenbereich ein, der gemütliche Sitzplatz, an dem alle Mahlzeiten eingenommen wurden, der phantastische kindersicher eingezäunte Pool, in dem wir unsere Bahnen schwimmen konnten. Die Küche war perfekt ausgestattet und im Kühlschrank wartete sogar ein lokaler Wein und provencialischer Käse. Die geräumigen Schlafzimmer mit en-suite Badezimmern waren ein echter Luxus. Dies ist ein perfektes Ferienhaus zum Entspannen mit Buch am Pool, als Ausgangsbasis für reizvolle Radtouren und Ausflüge ans Meer und in die Berge. Der Ort Fayence ist auf Tourismus eingestellt, aber nicht überlaufen und hat sehr viel Charme, tolle Restaurants und Bars. Die Selbstverpflegung wird durch einen sehr gepflegten Supermarkt, nahe gelegene sehr gute Boulangerien und den Wochenmarkt gesichert. Wir werden wieder kommen!!
