About this property

Rustic villa with a large swimming-pool, close to the sea

You will be delighted by this unique property, that is located in the wilderness, away from the crowds and noise, just 16 kilometres from the sea. The big swimming pool (12.5 m x 6 m) is a paradise for children and swimmers. You will love resting and sunbathing on the terrace, listening to the cicadas and the whisper of the wind. You will be fascinated by sunsets on the surrounding landscapes… You will discover the flora and fauna that enchant this 6941-m2 kingdom of wild nature!

Our villa is an ideal place for holidays with family or friends. It is located in the La Lieutenante residential development, which is unique on the French Riviera by its high-quality spaces, free of any construction, and its big plots (5000 m2 on average).

The La Lieutenante residential development is surrounded on all sides by wild nature. It is located at the foot of the magnificent rocks of the Estérel. In such an environment, you will breathe clean air and enjoy holidays away from the noise and the bustle of the coast. La Lieutenante is located on the territory of the rural commune of Puget-sur-Argens, away from the village itself.

Our villa is comfortable. As it is single-storey, with no stairs to navigate, it is suitable for both small kids and the elderly.

It comprises an entrance hall, a living-room with direct access to the terrace and the swimming pool, a dining-room, a separate kitchen with all amenities (a hood, an electric oven and a glass electric cooktop, a microwave oven, a refrigerator-freezer and a table top refrigerator, a dishwasher, a washing-machine) and 5 bedrooms:
. One bedroom with a double bed.
. One bedroom with two single beds pushed together.
. Two bedrooms with two single beds separated.
. One single bedroom.

Each bedroom features a fan.

The beds will be made for your arrival. We provide bed linen, towels and tea towels.

There are two bathrooms: one is shared and has a shower. The other one is adjacent to the bedroom with two single beds pushed together and has a bathtub.

The villa features a wi-fi high-speed internet access that perfectly works (Orange Box modem-router).

The terrace and the swimming pool are very well exposed: facing south! The temperature of water quickly reaches 25° C.

The swimming-pool is cleaned and maintained weekly. It is surrounded by a compulsory security fence that complies with French legislation. Fences are the best system to ensure the security of small kids around a swimming pool. Nevertheless, always keep a close eye on your children when they bathe or play around a swimming pool..

Our charming hostess will be there to meet you on arrival and when you leave. She will show you and explain you everything.

Our worst holiday home - truly disappointing

The owners manual was the initial indication all was not well with a multitude of bluntly delivered instructions as long as your arm. We arrived in 38 degrees of heat to find only one very old fan for the whole house, no air conditioning, very poor insulation and all the furniture, crockery and beds very old and worn. The house had also never been cleaned properly, every window ledge was really dirty, the grills in the walls full of spiders and webs. Having purchased fans for every room as sleep was impossible without them (to date the owner offered a refund to get us to leave all the fans then never paid us) we were mildly more comfortable but due to the property being in the middle of an uncleared wooded site there wasn’t a breath of wind. It was unbearably hot which just made everything else worse. The biggest issue however, if this wasn’t enough, was the my 80 year old Mum slept in the single room and sustained once of the worse case of insect bites from an infestation in the room. Bed bugs, fleas, spiders? The photographs of her torso are eye watering. She was extremely poorly with her body full of poison and bites. Definitely not mosquitos. The owner admitted that the room hadn’t been used for years but the lack of care and cleanliness, old and patchwork beds and furnishing clearly led to this being able to happen. We checked out early as soon as we could (we had booking for activities in the area) choosing to spend money (again not refunded) instead of having to endure another moment in the shabbiest of holiday homes I have ever come across. Here we have an owner intent on being right, totally uncaring about the experience of his guests with the hapless ‘Sylvie’ sent to ineffectually listen (speaking no English!) whilst he communicates from his summer house in Russia. VRBO have been singularly useless in trying to get us a refund for the fans, the hotel or indeed the abject mis-selling of this property. Their app and online complaints contact built to frustrate. Words can’t express what a dismal experience we had in this house.

Our villa is located in the wilderness, in the magnificent Estérel mountain range, on a huge wooded plot (6941 m2) where the song of the cicadas mingles with the murmur of the wind. An exceptionally large swimming pool (12.5 x 6 m), surrounded by an elegant regulatory fence for the protection of children, allows you to cool off at will. A splendid south-facing terrace, on which you will enjoy sunbathing and cooking tasty meals on a top-of-the-range plancha, dominates the landscape. Very spacious (160 m2), rustic style, perfectly maintained and equipped with all modern comforts, the house has a lot of charm. Our guests are always satisfied. Unfortunately, this was not the case for this lady, who seems to have had a bad dream... I must tell the truth: none of the accusations that are made in this review are true. This guest put us through real hell by complaining throughout her stay about problems that did not exist. We lost endless hours with her on imaginary problems and in compensation for which she demanded a substantial refund which we of course refused her. This lady had the audacity to complain vehemently that her mother's bedroom had been invaded by bed bugs. It was wrong. There hadn’t been the slightest infestation of anything and the room was perfectly clean! Bed bug infestations are extremely rare in the countryside. The person who takes care of our summer rentals checked the room meticulously twice and found only three insects, which is normal for a villa in the wilderness. It is also false that the bedroom in question had been unoccupied for years. It is permanently occupied every summer and gives full satisfaction! The description of the villa on the VRBO website does not specify that there are air conditioners. In case of strong heat, however, the house remains cool thanks to a good thermal insulation of the roof and provided that the doors and windows remain closed to prevent the heat from entering. The villa manual is a bit long as it is bilingual. Everything is translated into English, which our foreign guest appreciate very much. It contains all the needed information for a pleasant stay in our villa and tips to do the daily shopping and visit the region. The villa is always perfectly clean for the arrival of our guests. We welcome them with a smile and a lot of kindness. We attach the greatest importance to ensuring that they have an excellent stay and are always listening to them.

Séjour au soleil

Idéalement placé, vous ne serez pas déçus de votre séjour. La piscine est magnifique, vous n’êtes pas gênés par les voisins, vous êtes proche en voiture de toutes commodités et les plages sont belles. Un peu chaud dans les chambres mais les ventilateurs sont là.

Belle maison et magnifique piscine dans une nature préservée

La maison est située dans les hauteurs de Fréjus, au milieu de la nature au sein de « la lieutenante ». Elle dispose d’une très grande piscine, très agréable, et d’un grand terrain. Superbe emplacement pour faire des balades, et nombreuses plages assez proches. Beau village de Roquebrune à proximité Propriétaire très à l’écoute, très communicant et d’une réactivité remarquable.

Je vous remercie de vos compliments et de vos commentaires très positifs. C’était un plaisir de vous recevoir. Nous serions ravis, mon épouse et moi, de vous accueillir à nouveau. Nous attachons beaucoup d’importance à être à l’écoute de nos hôtes et très réactifs. Nous sommes très soucieux de leur confort et de leur satisfaction. Nous mettons tout en œuvre pour qu’ils passent d’excellentes vacances dans ce petit coin de paradis qu’est notre villa. Le massif de l’Estérel, qui l’environne, est un site naturel protégé Natura 2000, d’une grande beauté et d’une richesse exceptionnelle, tant sur le plan de la faune que sur celui de la flore. Construite sur un terrain très vaste (6941 m2), notre villa, de style rustique, n’a pas de vis-à-vis. Les amoureux de la nature apprécient qu’elle soit loin des foules, en pleine nature sauvage, tout en étant à proximité de la mer (30 minutes en voiture), des plages et des commerces (15 minutes). Elle est un point de départ idéal pour de magnifiques randonnées dans l’Estérel et des excursions passionnantes dans la région. Notre piscine, avec ses 12,5 x 6 mètres et une profondeur moyenne de 2 mètres, est très appréciée. Notre puissante plancha, également, qui permet de cuire des plats savoureux, à deux pas de la piscine, sur la terrasse, pour 8 ou 9 personnes.

Cadre enchanteur

Nous avons passé 2 semaines dans la villa dans un cadre provençal calme, un accès direct à de belles promenades forestières et à 15 minutes des magasins de proximité. La maison se situe dans une propriété privée et sécurisée et nous avons profité des équipements de la maison comme par exemple : - la grande piscine - La terrasse ensoleillée et les chaises longues - Des appareils récents (frigo, grille pain, hotte.... et même d'un grill électrique qui a été fourni alors que la plancha extérieure n''est pas encore opérationnelle du fait de retards liés au COVID. La maison reste à une température modérée la nuit si vous prenez bien soin de fermer portes et fenêtres durant la journée et notre séjour était très agréable.

My name is François, I am French, I live both in my villa of Puget-sur-Argens and in Saint-Petersburg, in Russia.

Why they chose this property

I have spent most of my summer holidays in this dream property since I was a teenager. The villa was built by my parents in 1967. It was passed on to me in 2017 as my wife and I are in love with it and with the region.

What makes this property unique

Our property is located in the wilderness, in a unique environment, away from the crowds and noise, just 16 kilometres from the sea.

Views from the terrace are so great! Having diner there is an enchantment!

Our swimming pool is unique by its size: 12.5 m x 6 m and depth (2 m).

Our huge land plot (6940 m2) keeps us away from all neighbours.

This property is a paradise for nature lovers !
