General overview
AWARDED ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FROM FRENCH TOURISM ON FACILITIES
Welcome to our home, where we've got the three magic words for your next family escape: 'location, location, location...!!!'
Our villa isn't just child-friendly; it's practically a playground of joy. Ideally nestled within a charming village, it's the kind of place where you can enjoy evening meals without the hassle of car journeys or embark on early morning strolls for croissants with the kiddos in tow. Plus, we're just 5-minute drive from stunning sandy beaches – because life is better with a bit of sand between your toes.
Our 6-bedroom (4 doubles, 1 triple, and 1 quad with bunk beds) haven, is your ticket to character, charm, and easy living. With 3 bathrooms, a spacious open-plan sitting room, a kids gaming area, a large playroom stacked with games/toys and kids entertainment, and a relaxed terrace with a chimney BBQ overlooking our private garden, fenced, heated pool, and hot tub – this is the stuff family dreams are made of.
The best part? We're a mere 2-minute walk from the lively village, home to weekly street markets, bars, cafes, and restaurants. And did we mention the toddler park right next door? Ideal, right?
For our tiniest guests, we've got you covered – complimentary children's crockery, cutlery, travel cot, changing mat, high chair, pushchair and so much more are all part of the deal. And no need to worry about those bright morning awakenings – our villa comes equipped with external shutters for a peaceful start to the day too!
Our playroom is a haven for our young adventurers, this vibrant space is filled with an array of exciting games and toys, promising endless entertainment for our little guests. From classic board games to modern gaming consoles like the Xbox 360, there's something for every age and interest.
Picture the joy as kids dive into the chateau-themed ball pit, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Let their creativity soar on the giant chalkboard, where masterpieces come to life. But the magic doesn't end there – our playroom is adorned with a delightful collection of dressing-up clothes for both boys and girls. From princess gowns to superhero capes, every little dreamer can transform into their favourite character. It's not just a playroom; it's a magical realm where laughter echoes, friendships blossom, and imaginations run wild.
And now, the grown-up perks: while the kids are happily entertained in a safe and fun environment, you can revel in peace of mind. Babysitting and maid services are at your disposal (as optional extras) to ensure you get the holiday you deserve. Internet access for planning your next adventure, a Nespresso machine for that perfect morning espresso, remember there's shutters in the children's rooms to encourage a bit of extra sleep, and yes, plenty of wine glasses in the cupboard – because parents deserve to unwind too!
For Dad's sports games or family movie nights, we've got a 75-inch TV and popcorn buckets to make every moment larger than life. And when the day's adventures have worn you out, our adult-only hot tub is the perfect spot to soak away the excitement and relax under the stars.
