Villa rental in the Southwest of France

Home > Villa Rental
 

You have a home base to live just like the locals. You can head out for day trips or stay "home" and soak up the moment...

During your home selection, we'll talk in depth about particular pros & cons of towns, villages, villas or apartments, and we'll address all of your criteria.  The goal is to give you the vacation experience that best suits you and showcases the strength of the region. You gain peace of mind from making an informed decision thanks to a trusted adviser who has lived in the region and qualified the homes. A diligent internet search or e-mail correspondence will never give you that peace of mind. Avoid the common mistake of choosing a house that looks good on photos & fact sheets; instead decide based on its cultural context and the type of lifestyle it will give you.

Is this for us?

Yes, if your family or group of friends (as large as 21 people!) looks forward to vacationing in a fine private home. You possibly want none of the stress attached to the daily logistics of meals, housekeeping, childcare etc... You look forward to experiencing a great region and rich culture, interact with locals without the research and coordination effort required.  It is your vacation after all!
 



Much more than a villa rental company offers

1- I have personally selected a number of villas and  apartments with my knowledge as a local and my understanding of the high standards North Americans expect in Europe. Comfort, charm, location and support services are the variables I pay attention to. Check out our slide show for a representative selection of properties.
2- Your local host is there to guide you and help in case of a problem. You are equipped with driving directions and maps to easily find your way around. Your Expérience Authentique ‘carnet de voyage’ (travel log) is packed with suggested day trips, restaurants, current cultural events.
3- A number of activities have been pre-arranged to enhance the quality of your stay as per your interests. My network of local contacts combined with thorough planning work make you experience the region & its people at a more intimate level. No worry on logistics.
