About this property

Le Rayol is a carefully renovated natural stone villa standing in 15 acres of terraced olive-groves, maritime pine trees and grass. The house faces south-east and the house-front and terraced patio (for 'al fresco' meals!) are covered. Here you will find peace and quiet, summer breezes, carrying the scent of lavender, thyme, rosemary and pine, and a 'forever' view to die for.
In the white washed clear and simple decor of the house you will also find some family antiques. The windows have wooden shutters on the inside and out. There is a 10x5 m outdoor private swimming-pool and a breathtaking open view over the hills towards the sea. Easy winter-living: you will find central heating and a fire place for the cooler months of the year. The house also adjusts well for 2 people. There are no immediate neighbours. Shaded parking. Outdoor furniture provided. Please note that the last 800 metres or so of road to the property is not tarred and its condition varies depending on the weather. After many weeks of heavy rain (very rare during the main season) one has to drive carefully to avoid small rock protrusions. No need for 4x4 vehicles. WiFi internet is available from mid-May to end of October.

Charmante, ruhig und traumhaft gelegene Steinvilla in der Provence

Le Rayol ist traumhaft und sehr ruhig gelegen. Wer Ruhe sucht, der wird sie genau dort finden. Die jeweilige An- und Abfahrt erfordert auf den letzten ca. 2-3 Kilometern bei Gegenverkehr und auf den letzten 800 m unbefestigter Wegfläche gute Nerven, ist jedoch machbar. Ein tiefer gelegter Sportwagen ist auf der unbefestigten Wegefläche wohl nicht das hierfür besonders geeignete Verkehrsmittel, Allradantrieb ist nicht erforderlich. Das alte und gut ausgestattete Steinhaus hat seinen eigenen Charme. Der Blick, insbesondere in Poolnähe ist toll. Wir, ein Pärchen, haben Mitte bis Ende September 2023 auf Le Rayol sehr angenehme Zeit verbracht. Lohnend ist ein Besuch im nahe gelegenen Seillans, dort kann auch im Chez Hugo eine gute Alltagsküche bei zugewandter Bedienung genießen. Neben vielen anderen Orten, wie Fayence, insbesondere an Markttagen, ist in der Nähe das authentische Bergdorf Mons besonders hervorzuheben. Weiter weg lohnt u.a. das Örtchen Cotignac am Markttag (Dienstag) und dort in der Nähe die Cascade von Sillans.

Urlaub zwischen Wildschweinen und Rehen

Hier gibt es französische Bäuerlicher Idylle. Abgeschieden vom Jetset leben. Wer absolute Ruhe und einen Ort zum Abschalten sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Der Außenbereich mit Pool ist großzügig angelegt und die Örtlichkeit ist so abgelegen, dass man keine Bedenken haben muss, unter Beobachtung zu stehen.

Simply perfect!

My wife and I and our 4 kids, (6, 11, 15 and 17yo) spent a week in July at this beautiful house. We found the house to exceed our expectations. We've stayed in many summer houses throughout the years and we rate this house as undoubtably one of the absolute best. The location on the hill side surrounded by the trees gives the feeling of total isolation. The 10m pool was very clean and perfect for cooling down in and for the kids to splash around in for hours each day. The kitchen was well equipped and relatively cool. The house is furnished with quite a lot of antique pieces but we were mostly only inside to sleep or make food. All bedrooms have an adjacent bathroom which was extremely convenient considering how many people we are in our family. We ate out a couple of times in Seillans, both were excellent experiences. Cannes is about 60 minute drive and worth a visit. There's a small supermarket in Seillans for essentials but a larger one in Fayance (13 min drive). We felt very welcomed by Sebastian, the property owner and was immediately responsive by email when necessary. We highly recommend this house.
