We have just returned from a week at Villa les Cascades, where we had the most wonderful time.
The villa itself is beautiful, with plenty of space, and a stunning pool which was kept perfectly clean by our hosts. The bedrooms had excellent air conditioning, and the kitchen had everything we needed to have lunches and dinners at the villa. The dining table outside was a wonderful setting for some long lunches under the shady pergola.
We spent some time down by the river, which although it wasn’t flowing as it usually would be due to a drought, was still very pretty and peaceful, with pools for a paddle.
Tourettes is a picture-perfect village (a short walk up a hilly path), with art adorning the walls, and two very good restaurants. We also walked into Fayence, which has great views and lots of shops and restaurants.
We visited Seillans which was equally lovely. A brilliant day out was had at the gorgeous Lac St Cassien, where were hired paddle boards and the children went on the inflatable obstacle course. There was a really good cafe there and we hired sunbeds. It was so much fun.
From the villa we also visited Cannes and Frejus, where there was a great fairground and beautiful sandy beach.
Our hosts Paul and Guillemette were very helpful, kind and welcoming, and gave us privacy whilst also being on hand if anything was needed. They were excellent hosts- thank you.
I would recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful setting with plenty to do nearby.
