Rent from owners direct in France

Kim and I decided to turn our passion for weekends away and visiting new places into running our rental properties in Lanzarote, which we've had for 5 years now and France, which we've just purchased. We love the Aquitaine region of France, the space and fresh air and a swimming pool helps too! Our goal is to provide everything we would expect ourselves, exceptional quality and memories to cherish.

Maïa, a former tourguide and her husband Frédéric have escaped from a more hectic life in Paris to the peaceful Loire countryside. They are experts at looking after you and they are just next door, discreets but always on hand if you need them.

Elly and I are a married couple who met many years ago travelling through Vietnam when Vietnam was not yet opened to the world. We fell in love and Steve moved from Australia to Amsterdam. After several years we moved back to Australia and for a time lived between Melbourne and Roussillon. We love travel, adventures and animals. We also run a small tour company in France, plus we own a small Brocante. Elly speaks several languages, Steve, well working on that, a bit of Dutch and French!

Rick has 2 properties including a 2 bedroom apartment with shared pool in Olhos de Água, Portugal and a 6 bedroom gite with private pool in Saint-Georges-de-Reintembault, France.

We have owned this three bedroom apartment in Cannes for nearly ten years. Our favourite thing about the apartment is its location in the centre of Cannes, but still only a five minute walk to the beach and to La Croisette. I first visited Cannes in my early teens with my parents and have always been attracted to the city.

Together with Gerard, a theatre enthusiast, and myself, a lover of singing, we aimed to create an ideal place that encourages meetings, creativity, and introspection. After a year of searching, we stumbled upon the house of Aum. It was an immediate crush, as if all the elements had aligned to lead us to this place. It's not surprising that our guests are also amazed by the beauty and richness of nature upon their arrival. We decided to keep the original name, La Maison d'Aum, as it evokes sound, serenity, and singing—elements that resonate with our own passions and the calmness of the place. If you also dream of finding a little piece of paradise far from the hustle and bustle of the city, you are welcome at our place. La Maison d'Aum is an enchanting place that invites you to relax, reconnect with yourself, and enjoy the beauty of nature.with yourself, and enjoy the beauty of nature.

I moved to France from the UK with my family in June 2022. We renovated a property for a year to let out as holiday accommodation and we opened the property in May 2024. I have been in the hospitality industry all my life and before moving to France, my husband and I owned and operated an award winning Restaurant with Rooms in Scotland, were we had been for 16 years.

There have been many refurbishments since we bought Chateau de Lamostonie in 2007. For example, each double bedroom has been furnished with an en-suite bathroom, the entrance hall has been opened up, and the old wooden staircase replaced with majestic stone. Located between the river Dordogne (to the North) and Lot (to the South) Chateau de Lamostonie offers many sightseeing opportunities, such as Rocamadour, Sarlat, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, the pont Valentre at Cahors, and some spectacular caves with underground rivers and prehistoric paintings. The tennis court, swimming pool and barbecue, however, keep us from wanting to be anywhere else during the summer months. We hope you will enjoy being at Lamostonie as much as we do.

Bonjour Hello Hallo Ciao Holà G'day Ola Hej from Sarah and Paul. We discovered this beautiful property several years ago whilst on holiday in South West France. It had been empty for a few years and needed quite a bit of tlc to bring it back to life. We were excited to begin a new adventure and after lots of hard work we were ready to share this little piece of paradise with guests. The feedback from past guests has been incredible and we hope you too will experience the tranquility and total relaxation that La Vieille Gorce has to offer. A bientôt x

Jerome has a 2 bedroom chateau with shared pool in Moncaut, France.

We moved to the Ariege in 2016 after many years of teaching in the UK. The natural beauty of the region was what first attracted us - there is so much variety with the Pyrenees close by whilst still being easily accessible for Toulouse, Carcassonne and the Mediterranean coast. We love the peaceful nature of our grounds which are full of birdsong and wildlife. It is a great place to relax and unwind and still close enough to local shops, bars and restaurants.

Joanne has 4 properties including a 11 bedroom gite with shared pool in Camors, France and a 3 bedroom cottage with shared pool in Camors, France.
