We had an amazing stay, the house is located in a remote and very quiet area between two villages (Barjac and Bessas). There are literally no visible neighbours (only a farm on the other side of the house but you cannot see it) opening an amazing view to the valley. No light pollution as well which offers good conditions for stargazing at night. It is absolutely perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life. At the same time all necessities are a short drive away (Barjac is 5 min by car). We also checked a few restaurants in the area and can highly recommend the Auberge des Granges in Bessas, fantastic experience!
The house itself is brand new, clean and very spacious, well equipped with everything you would need for a comfortable stay, including aircon in every room, a range of games (e.g. table tennis, petang), good outdoors space with a large and beautiful pool. The host is responsive and communication was easy (although helps if you can understand a bit of French). Check-in and check-out process was smooth. Overall, highly recommended!
A loverly property - very clean and modern. All the equipment you would expect and very comfortable bedrooms (all with aircon). Nice location - very peaceful except for a slight bit of road noise from behind. Great pool and poolside area and a very good gas BBQ.
Magnifique villa très bien pensée. Pratique propre belles finitions. La vue est magnifique sans parler de la météo qui est au rendez vous. Je recommande à 100%.
Heel mooi domein, alles splinternieuw en tip top ! WiFi is minder en graag ook meer beschutting tegen zon, ook de paraplu’s aan zwembad zouden groter en van betere kwaliteit (vlogen weg door wind) moeten zijn! Spijtig dat je de wagen moet nemen voor elke verplaatsing. Barjac is wel een heel leuk dorpje!Top
Nous recherchions le calme et la tranquillité, nous avons été servis.
Villa au TOP, équipements au TOP, Climatisation de haute qualité dans toutes les pièces, piscine au TOP.
Si vraiment il faut chercher la petite bête : petite TV de premier prix (ou presque) et table de ping pong en mauvais état et quasi-inexploitable. Pour tout le reste c'est du 20/20.
Wir wurden freundlich empfangen und umfassend eingewiesen. Das Haus ist ein Traum. Eine umfangreiche Ausstattung die keine Wünsche offen lässt und eine atemberaubende Landschaft machten diesen Urlaub zu einem Erlebnis der besonderen Art. Der beheizte Pool und ein Boule-Platz wurden jeden Tag genutzt. Ebenso die Tischtennisplatte. Für Familie und Kinder jederzeit empfehlenswert. Danke an die Besitzer für die Möglichkeit eines schönen Urlaubes in Südfrankreich.
Nous avons passé des vacances très calmes et reposantes au sein de cette maison de caractère installée avec goût. Avec des chambres avec une salle de bain respective, une grande piscine avec une vue imprenable sur les vignes, nous recommandons vivement cette escapade à Bessas.
Maison très agréable avec un confort au top où il ne manque rien.
Piscine chauffée très appréciable
Maison isolée ou on ne risque pas de gêner les voisins.
En contre partie pas de possibilité de balades à pied et aucun commerce proche.
Nous avons séjourné dans cette superbe maison durant une semaine en famille et avec des amis. Idéal pour sillonner la région et profiter également de la fraicheur de la piscine entre deux visites. Nous recommandons vivement cette location située dans un cadre magnifique et y reviendrons avec grand plaisir.

Séjour agréable dans superbe villa avec piscine chauffée
Séjour agréable dans une superbe villa sans vis à vis et voisins trop proche. La piscine chauffée est un vrai plus sachant que nous n’avons pas de grandes températures et un soleil quasi absent. La décoration est jolie et moderne ainsi que le mobilier. Nous voulons aussi remercier les propriétaires pour leur hospitalité et leur gentillesse. Juste un petit bémol c’est qu’il faut prendre la voiture pour pouvoir faire des activités . Sinon Je recommande cette location et si nous avons l’occasion de venir dans le coin ce sera avec plaisir.
