availability of the property: The two villas of 'Le Vert Coteau' will be rented out together, but are also available for individual use. If this should interest you, please contact the owner directly for availability and rates. Keep in mind however that in this case there might be a family that uses the other villa and also has access to our large pool. A great opportunity to meet new friends. Also in case you are interested in renting the property during the winter or for longer periods it is advisable to contact the owner directly for special rates.

We found there seems to be a real demand for such a feature.
