We had a wonderful stay in David's holiday home. We especially made use of the wonderfully sized swimming pool during the French heat wave! David was a lovely host and certainly went above and beyond for us. The location was perfect for with trips to Nimes, Arles, Avignon and Tarascan all in easy reach, as well as Uzes where we had some delicious meals. Thank you David.

Beautiful view, privacy and a swimming pool in a small rural village. It was very peaceful and relaxing. The house is well equipped with what you'll need. The garden is beautiful and you feel very secluded.
David is very kind and helpful.
We live in Canada but have talked about returning to this property because it's so idyllic.
Strongly recommend. Great for families.

La Villa Colline is most definitely premier league and probably ranks top equal of the 40 or so holiday accommodations we have stayed in over the years. Pristine , well presented, great attention to detail and lacking nothing are but a few of the accolades which spring to mind. The window mosquito netting was particularly appreciated.In addition to the terraces, balcony, views and beautiful pool, the property is encompassed by lovely gardens with various secluded areas in which to peacefully relax, dine, read or enjoy the occasional verre de vin, ou deux, ou trois ! Encouraged use of the jardin potager was also a lovely gesture and the various herbs, peppers, aubergines and particularly those wonderful tomatoes were very much appreciated.Our genial hosts, Ghislaine et David, whilst respecting our privacy and remaining unobstrusive, could not have been more helpful and welcoming. They made our three weeks stay in their villa during September extremely special and very much a home away from home.We hope to return in the not too distant future, meanwhile thanks for a wonderful holiday and also for arranging the pre-requisitioned weather, although 32 to 37 degrees for the first eleven days had us wilting somewhat.Total relaxation in beautiful rural surroundings which made for ' une vacance idyllique '. Merci beaucoup Ghislaine et DavidVicky et Richard, Cornwall
