Rent from owners direct in South of France

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!

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.

Our only focus is to make sure you have the absolute best time at Haute Vue.

We, Peter and Marjolein hope that you will enjoy an unforgettable stay with us.

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.

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.

Hello, I am Simon Clark, a retired schoolteacher and lover of France and Spain, their languages and cultures. My partner and I bought the Mas d'Arjac 16 years ago with a view to creating an arts and cultural centre with accommodation and a business to keep me out of mischief once retired. As well as our holiday rentals, I also run a cultural association which promotes concerts, mainly of classical music, by some of the brightest musical stars of the future. We fell in love with the peaceful woodland setting of the Mas d'Arjac and the beauty of its stone buildings which we have restored to practical use over the intervening years. We particularly love exploring the many stunning villages within easy reach of the house as well as the vibrant market days in our nearest towns. Our small corner of France, in the Aveyron but very close to the borders with Tarn et Garonne and the Lot, is the perfect springboard to explore this fascinating and extremely picturesque part of SW France.

I'm owner in the Villa Garrigue of Cap Esterel.
