Villa les Cascades is in a truly beautiful setting situated in the heart of the Provencal countryside near the medieval village of Tourrettes.The villa has a private 10m heated swimming pool, fabulous views over the Esterel range, and offers stunning holiday accommodation for up to eight guests. The property has its own crystal clear river flowing through woods and cascading over rocks into pools where you can swim.The property set in its own 2.5ha of magnificent undulating land and is only a short walk from the winding narrow streets of Tourrettes with its open air jazz and classical summer concerts.Adjoining Tourrettes is Fayence with its bustling shops,restaurants,cafes and markets. This corner of the Var region allows easy access to Cannes,Nice,St Tropez, Monte Carlo,Grasse and some of the most beautiful natural sites like the Gorges du Verdon. St Raphael and its attractive beaches are only 35 kms away and Lac St Cassien with all its watersports is 8km away. The bi-lingual owners have a house within the 2.5ha of the property but will completely respect your privacy. The villa is approached via a large terrace with a vine covered wrought iron pergola offering magnificent views of the surrounding countryside to the Esterel. Inside the living area is very light and comprises an open plan lounge with sofas armchairs TV,DVD and hi-fi.The well equipped kitchen has a modern stainless steel range with an American fridge freezer and microwave.There are two bedrooms on the ground floor with a spiral staircase leading to a galleried landing and a bedroom off either end.
We found the villa location excellent as was the pool,with suitable shopping and lovely restaurants in Fayence. Whilst the villa was in a tranquil location it was not that far to go to beach resorts and fun parks. L Dowson
Great hosts-superb facilities-great location. N Bourgoyne
Stunning views from the pool,very comfortable sunloungers for the sun seeking person. Upper terrace superb for evening dining. Close to all sightseeing, walkable distance to shops (for the fit) friendly but discreet owners.L Nixon
Just to let you know we had a fabulous holiday,the villa,weather and the owner all made for a lovely holiday in a perfect French setting. C Holt.
Our favourite villa yet booked through Owners Direct: 2 hectares with well-equipped villa; poolhouse & BBQ area; personal boules pit; gorgeous terrace and spectacular views all round.
And then there's the little pathway through your own woods with multiple waterfalls and natural pools in your very own stream, which our children loved. They spent hours every day jumping into the stream all the way down to the bridge (where the grounds end), then climbing back up the rocks in the water.
The local village of Tourrettes is a haven for artists, and the little square by the town hall a real treat (again with amazing views) for a drink or bite to eat.
Fayence is only 10-15 minutes walk up the hill to the local baker; butcher and restaurants, and has a small supermarket that stocks English papers amongst other groceries etc.
The local lake (St. Cassien) is only 15 minutes drive away, and great for swimming; hiring pedalos (our kids loved having a pedalo with a slide off the back); kayaks or venturing (in life jackets) onto the obstacle course of large inflatables in the water.
Owners Paul, Guillemette and their dog Noushka are very welcoming and on hand (next door) for any guidance as to where to visit locally; to show you around if required, but very much leave guests to their own peace and quiet.
We adored Les Cascades and will definitely return to share with additional family members and friends: special, special, special! We fell in love with it....
A lovely villa, in a wonderful location with delightful owners.
We stayed for a 2 week holiday and could have easily stayed another week! The villa location is truly special set within the owners grounds amongst trees and floral beds. The views from the terrace and pool are spectacular with the sound of the river below. The local village is within walking distance albeit slightly hilly and the slightly larger town of fayence within easy reach with local amenities. We enjoyed some excellent meals in both Tourettes and Fayence. The house is an ideal base to explore the coast and we particularly enjoyed our trips to St. Tropez, St. Raphael and Monte Carlo. The latter is a must for F1 enthusiasts and it's not as expensive as you think. We ate in a lovely restaurant in a square just off the main promenade which was very reasonable.
The villa is light and airy and the beds extremely comfortable. All the bedrooms are a good size and there's plenty of seating areas both within the property and around the grounds.
We had never stayed in a property where the owners live within the grounds as we enjoy peace and seclusion, which we found here. Paul and Guillemette (the owners) are lovely people and we enjoyed having them easily accessible to offer advice and suggestions for days out. They were completely unobtrusive, respecting our privacy whilst being friendly and helpful at the same time. An added bonus was their boxer puppy, Nouschka who came to visit us on invitation.
I would certainly recommend this villa and hope to return ourselves in the not too distant future.
Wonderfully serviced property close enough to the surrounding villages while remaining remote enough for absolute peace and quite
Paul and his wife could not be more helpful and welcoming. Mum, dad and older teenagers all completely relaxed after a week in late May at Les Cascades... 100% recommend thisvilla 😊👏
This is a wonderfully comfortable, well equipped and spacious villa in a truly spectacular setting - incredible views and even a natural stream with waterfalls on site. Everything has been thought of and we had a fantastic and very relaxing week there in August with our 4 children aged from 4 to 13yrs. The stunning infinity pool was a huge hit with all the family and we spent many hours of fun there. We enjoyed walking to the nearby villages and visiting the market but our main aim was to relax and we couldn't have found a more perfect and beautiful place to do so. A big thanks to the extremely kind and helpful owners who go out of their way to ensure a relaxing holiday for their guests... we very much hope to see you again!
Highly recommended.
Location! Location! Location! Les Villas Cascades is absolutely beautiful. It is close to everything you could want to do in the French Riviera and still snuggled away nicely high up in a valley with privacy and peacefulness. You are walking distance to two beautiful towns (Tourettes/Fayence) with amazing history and beautiful vistas of the surrounding areas. The infinity pool and picturesque valley along with the sounds of a waterfall create and an amazing peace.
I have stayed at many vacation rentals and this by far has been the best. The property owners are truly nice family people who give you all the privacy you need while being there to help in anyway should you need. Absolutely just nice, genuine people. I cannot say enough great things about the property and the owners. I highly, highly recommend! I know my family and I look forward to our return. I would book well in advance because it is a high demand property.
