About this property

Unique hilltop villa in Provence, stunning private pool, 6+bdrms + optional gite

"Villa Romantique" is a stunning and very spacious stone-built villa with a magnificent Roman arena-style colonnaded circular swimming pool, superbly located on a hilltop, giving you the most wonderful panoramic views. It basks in the sunshine and the very special light of this Provence/Languedoc region.

6 double/twin bedrooms and 5 bath/shower-rooms. "Villa Romantique" is as perfect for 2 as it is for 12 - and WITH SUBSTANTIAL DISCOUNTS FOR SMALLER GROUPS. PLEASE ASK.

The optional extra 'La Petite Villa Romantique', situated in the corner of the garden with it's own little garden, accommodates an extra 3/4 people if required ( see below ) gives a total occupancy of 15/16 people if required.

* Also note: Optional extra :Please enquire if you require extra, separate accommodation at "Villa Romantique" we have now completed a total restoration of our "La Petite Villa Romantique- a self-contained cottage in the corner of the garden" which can be rented as additional accommodation for £450 to £850 per week all-inclusive (depending upon season), if required. Please note that you do NOT need to book "La Petite Villa Romantique" if you do not need it - it is optional. We do not let "La Petite Villa Romantique" separately, so if you do not wish to rent it, it will NOT be occupied by any other visitors whilst you are in residence. "La Petite Villa Romantique" is a 1-bedroomed detached single-storey house which accommodates 1, 2, 3 or 4 people. It is perfect for an older couple who may wish to have peace and quiet separate from - but very near - to the main villa, or for a romantic couple who would like total privacy; or for a family of 3 ( or possibly 4 ); or for staff who travel with the family - for instance , a nanny , chauffeur, secretary, personal assistant etc. where you need them to be nearby, but prefer them to have separate accommodation. "La Petite Villa Romantique" is tucked away in the corner of the garden of "Villa Romantique". There is a spacious living room (and the sofa converts in to a double-width sofa-bed - thus creating 2 separate sleeping rooms at night, if required) There is a dining area and a kitchen corner with 2-ring hob, fridge/freezer, washing machine, microwave oven, cafetiere, toaster, electric kettle etc. etc. The double bedroom has a large double-width bed which can be separated to make twin beds, if preferred, and there is a spacious shower-room with shower, washbasin and WC. Our "Petite Villa Romantique" is charmingly furnished and decorated in an authentic Provencal style with beautiful tapestries adorning the walls. Both the double bedroom and the living room have double doors opening directly out on to the shaded sun-terrace and it's secluded and totally private 'Petite' garden. You are not overlooked by the villa - or by any other properties. - "La Petite Villa Romantique" is shown in the last 7 photos in the slide show.

"Villa Romantique" ( and of course " La Petite Villa Romantique" if you wish to book it as additional accommodation) are centrally located in the 'golden circle' created by beautiful Avignon, the Luberon, St Remy de Provence, Arles,, the Camargue, the Mediterranean, Montpelier, Nimes, Uzes and the Pont du Gard,, There are no fewer than 5 UNESCO World Heritage sites all within a very easy drive.

Villa Romantique was built around an old circular stone tower with windows certainly dating from 1820.

It has been renovated with immense style to provide very appealing, elegant and spacious accommodation combining old style charm and original Provencal features.

Big, electronically-controlled gates give privacy and a feeling of exclusivity, and the garden which has a high wall all around it .gives peace and security. This is a beautifully private and secure location - but it is not isolated. You are not overlooked by any other properties, nor do you overlook any other properties.

Great location

We had such a lovely week at your house - what a brilliant location. It was great to fall in love with that part of the world again – especially Avignon

Exceeded our expectations.

We booked Villa Romantique for a get-together of far flung cousins. The listing is accurate as regards the facilities but the photos don't really convey how spacious the house and grounds are. There are several seating areas both inside and out, giving scope for being all together or in smaller groups . The house was very well presented and on arrival we were given a tour by the charming caretaker. There's good documentation of the appliances and plenty of suggestions of things to do and places to visit. The owner is English and lives in Greater London and so the booking process was easy for someone with limited French. The contract is straightforward and queries were dealt with promptly. Beaucaire itself is a very pleasant town with both local shops and hypermarkets. We made enjoyable excursions to Nimes, Avignon, Arles and Uzes but some days it was just fun to spend time in Villa Romantique and its grounds.

Unreal holiday location

Villa Romantique makes for a dream holiday. My family and some friends made this our home-base for a week while we recuperate from a tour of Italy and centenary a couple birthdays while we took our time touring Provence. The villa is a great location with easy access to Avignon, Arles, Nîmes, and Beaucaire and Tarascon. The villa itself is breathtaking- the architecture, the grounds, the amenities... It's very well appointed with necessities;we were able to cook large, complex meals, have a tea party, and cookout. The hone is decorated traditionally and I loved the lived-in feeling of comfort. I will say that the furniture is antique and I think has been subject to vacation rental-type use, so we had to be extra delicate. Tony and Suzanne have taken the time to label and provide I strutting for most things, which I particularly appreciated bc it reduced the amount of energy we had to expend on opening five cabinets to find glasses. The owners are extremely communicative and were patient with me as I was difficult to reach bc of lack of service before arrival. I was apprehensive about departure bc we didn't have clear instructions, but when the local caretaker came, she assured us that all was well. Can't thank them enough for making it so easy to have a relaxing holiday!

Lovely Villa!

The property was certainly unusual. Enjoyed the pool the most as we were there during a heat wave!! Some appliances were old and not working. A few basic necessities could have been included, like dish detergent and a new sponge!

Des hôtes absolument charmants et la villa est très originale et organisée avec goût.

La villa est spacieuse et agréable. Elle offre de nombreux espaces à vivre, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur, y compris autour de la piscine. Une grande cuisine avec tout ce qu'il faut. La villa est idéalement située pour rayonner dans les environs.

About the host

Hosted by Tony Cremer-Price VillaRomantique

Host profile image
We have known the south of France and in particular this beautiful area of Provence for 35 years. We searched for a special property to buy for over 4 years before we finally found Villa Romantique 21 years ago..
We reserve it for our own use from November to April. From May to October inclusive we love to rent it to visitors for their holidays - many of them book it regularly and have become good friends. It is very special and very different. Truly unique. .

Why they chose this property

Completely different and very special. Hilltop location. Wonderful views. Magnificent pool. You do not overlook any other properties and nor do any other properties overlook you. The property is surrounded by a high wall and accessed by big, electronically-controlled gates, giving you a feeling of exclusivity. Secluded and private but not isolated. The villa sleeps up to 12 people + 2 babies. Optional extra: ' La Petite Villa Romantique' is a 1-bedroomed cottage situated in the corner of the garden of the main villa. It accommodates 2 to 4 people - if required. Note: It is never rented out separately so if you don't want or require it then it will remain empty during your stay.

What makes this property unique

A truly unique property. Wonderful view. Quiet and secluded but no isolated. 5-Star reviews. Highly recommended.
A unique private pool with sun terrace, shaded summer lounge, shaded summer kitchen and open-air traditional barbecue. The pool area is gated so it is child-proof. There is a separate single-storey 1-bedroomed cottage - 'La Petite Villa Romantique' - in the corner of the garden which is available as an optional extra - ideal for a couple or a couple with 2 young children, or perfect for an older couple who prefer to be quiet and away from the main villa - or a young couple - who prefer more privacy, or for your staff who travel with you - a nanny, chauffeur, personal assistant etc, and who you prefer to be nearby, but in their own separate accommodation. 'La Petite Villa' is an optional extra. You do not have to rent it, and rest-assured that if you don't require it, it will not be rented to anyone else whilst you are there. We do not rent it out separately.
