About this property

Beautiful old stone villa with private pool & spectacular view, very peaceful

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.

tranquil and soothing stay in comfortable authentic house
The characteristic, comfortable, old house is located in the remains of an olive grove surrounded by woodland. The view is calming, the pool refreshing. Nice walks from the property.

De chouettes vacances
Nous voulions une jolie maison qui donne l'impression d'être coupés du monde pour passer de chouettes vacances. Nous l'avons trouvée. En pleine nature, ce mas rustique nous a séduit au point de le louer pour la 2ème année consécutive. Il a du cachet, les chambres sont agréables, il est propre et bien tenu. La vue est imprenable et la piscine est top. Et Sebastian ,le propriétaire ,est à l'écoute et très réactif. Profitez!!

Un séjour inoubliable
Nous avons passé un sejour merveilleux. Une maison rénové avec beaucoup de goût, perdue dans la nature somptueuse. Nous n'avons entendu que les cigales pendant une semaine. La piscine est très agréable. Le propriétaire est très gentil et répond rapidement en cas de probleme. Nous espérons pouvoir revenir rapidement. Merci pour tout!

A wonderful house in a beautiful place
A wonderful house in a beautiful place; sitting amongst olive terraces, with a fine vista looking east over wooded Provencal hills with no other house or road in sight. Also, it’s set in a clearing in the woods at the end of a very long drive so is very quiet and completely private, but not isolated, the hilltop village of Seillans is a 15 minute drive away and has a really excellent restaurant on its cobbled square. The house itself is comfortable, well equipped, elegant and the owner is pleasant and helpful. It is special, and we couldn’t have been happier there.

Beautiful house, calm and away from it all!
We spent a lovely week in Sebastian's fantastic house, decorated with much taste. The beds were very comfortable in the 3 bedrooms, and the sofa bed was okay. The pool was big and clean, and we enjoyed being far away from any neighbours, but still only a 10 minutes' drive from Seillans. We highly recommend the restaurant "Le gloire de mon père" in Seillans.
