Spacious self catering half villa with swimming pool for rent in Lodeve

The property was spacious and comfortable. Everything was clean and the kitchen was well equipped. Lots of places to relax. The pool was a good size and the surrounding area was plenty big enough for sunbathing and relaxing. The lounge was comfortable with plenty of DVDs, books and games. Thomas, the host, was very helpful.

We stayed for 11 nights mid Sept 18. Villa is very well equipped, spacious and offers a central location to lots of the sights & places to visit. Lovely pool and plenty of space to enjoy the lovely weather. Nice and cool inside. Sky TV (basic) and lots of DVD's, CD's, games and books for you to enjoy. Perhaps TV could be a bit bigger as the lounge is a lovely big spacious room (nit picking!). Midges a bit annoying as sun went down but only outside. Apparently not usual.

Would recommend and would stay again for sure.

The villa is in a really great location for exploring the area and it is much more spacious than the pictures indicate! The villa is in a nice private location, quiet and tranquil with views across the countryside. It is presented to a high standard with a nice relaxed modern feel and is really well equipped. Thomas and his partner have really thought about what makes for a great home away from home - although we stayed here as a couple we could see the villa would also be be great for a family too. There is plenty of space in the villa and grounds to spread out in - space is not an issue here!

They have really made it as comfortable as possible and it will have a really wide appeal - there is great wifi should you need it, satellite TV a wide range of books & board games on hand, should you need any other distractions!

The pool area is immaculately well maintained with lots of plants and borders adding to the greenery. It is a great sun trap with views to the hills in the distance and was an ideal to relax with a book and a drink after a tough day sightseeing! There are also plenty of other spots around the garden to sit, eat and relax - all well looked after.

The owners have the other half of the villa but were very unobtrusive and we often forgot we were sharing the space.Thomas was our main contact during our trip and it was great to be able to chat with him when we did see him about our stay and of the places we visited and to get his take on other things to do and try in the area. He also does a fab job about telling you about the area before you arrive with a really helpful local guide he has put together that helps with all the local knowledge you will need. We found it really helpful about Lodeve as well as the wider region when planning what to do on our trip.

All in all we would really recommend this villa and we would definitely look to return if we found ourselves back in the region. For us it was a relaxing base for exploring the wider region and its lovely villages and towns: St Guilhem-Le-Desert for example must be one of the prettiest villages anywhere and is definitely worth a look.

Having also rented villas in the past for family holidays with our daughters we can seen this property would equally work for a longer family holiday too.

We had a great stay here and hope you will too.

Merci Thomas.

We have just returned from a weeks stay and had a thoroughly good time. The owners Thomas and Frank were very friendly and helpful with lots of knowledge of things to do and see. We were a little worried about a salt water pool but it was lovely, not salty at all. It was very hot during our stay and as there is no air conditioning it did get a little stifling inside at times as I suffer with an allergy to mosquitos so couldn’t have the doors/windows open much. Another stronger fan would have been nice. Having said that, it is such beautiful villa in a wonderful location with fabulous hosts, I would love to return and will be recommending it to my friends and family. Thank you Thomas once again for a great stay!

What a gem! A very well maintained villa, with pristine pool and gardens. The interior is clean, comfortable and equipped with all the facilities required to make it feel like a real "home-from-home". Located on the edge of Lodeve offering spectacular views of the surrounding area. Thomas & Frank were friendly, but discreet hosts, with plenty of excellent tips on stunning places to visit and the best local restaurants. L'Herault is a beautiful region with a laid back vibe, you just can't fail to relax on a holiday here. The only word of caution I would offer is to be aware the walk down to Lodeve from the villa is steep, obviously not too much of an issue on the way down, but the way back up could prove tough, especially in the current high temperatures. We would definitely recommend this property to friends and family.
