Private Villa In The South Of France With Stunning Mountain And Country Views

"We walked and walked in superb countryside and then came back and walked around the garden with a glass of wine - magnificent "
Peace and tranquillity will be guaranteed during your stay at this stunning villa which is in its own private grounds of a third of an acre with uninterrupted views of the nearby mountains and hills. The recent addition of the Jacuzzi spa and decking area to the rear of the villa provide the perfect space to chill out in the morning sunshine or watching in sunset in the evening capturing the breath-taking views whilst wallowing in the warm bubbling waters that surround you. The ambiance in the shade of the pine trees can lull you into a tranquil trance like state in which you relax and unwind without any self-imposed resistance! The villa is single level accommodation so is suitable for those with less mobility or for those not wanting to negotiate stairs after an enjoyable meal or glass or two of the local produce! The terraces, decking areas and gardens are shielded by a pyracantha hedge providing desirable privacy. There is an overall variety of flora which gives the gardens a variety of interest at different times of the year. Adjacent to the rear garden is an area of ground which was a small historic non-producing vineyard which was purchased to allow guests to enjoy a gentle stroll when the mood takes you.
The centre of the medieval village of Cucugnan is a 5 minute walk away with 3 very good restaurants, a bar and a small convenience store for all your essentials. There is a working windmill and a superb bakery underneath, take a stroll up and buy your fresh bread!
The area is famed for being a walker’s delight steeped in history and is only about a 40 minute drive from fabulous sandy beaches. In the summer months there are many rockpools to be found locally which are ideal for a refreshing dip! Being surrounded by arguably some of the finest vineyards in France, there is no shortage of superb wines to take advantage of. Fitou is a short drive and well worth a visit if only for the superb restaurant at the top of the village.
Villa Vingt Trois (formally known as Villa les Amandiers) is perfectly located for a wide range of activities, including Skiing in the winter months, or walking and exploring some fantastic sites from the villa. One excellent walk is from the Tourist Information centre, conveniently located in the village, to the next village where they serve a fantastic wild boar stew! You will find a full selection and details in the villa.
