About this property
Villa Retreat with Pool and pets
Escape to the tranquil beauty of southern France with a stay at this stunning villa in Vélieux, a peaceful hilltop village nestled between forests, vineyards, and the majestic views of the Pyrenees. Perfect for families and groups, this spacious villa offers privacy, comfort, and nature on your doorstep.
Surrounded by a huge private garden, the villa invites guests to relax in total seclusion. Start your day with breakfast on the sun-drenched terrace, take a dip in the heated pool, or unwind in the outdoor bubble bath. With scenic walking and cycling trails all around, this location is a haven for outdoor lovers and pets alike—your four-legged companions will love the wide-open space and shaded paths through the countryside.
Nearby, the medieval village of Minerve—one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France—offers an unforgettable day trip with its historic Cathar ruins, natural stone bridges, and dramatic gorge views. A short drive takes you to the charming village of La Caunette or the local market town of Olonzac for regional wines and artisan goods. Horse riding is just 5 km away in Rieussec, while Lac de Jouarres (23 km) provides a lakeside beach perfect for swimming and picnicking.
Pet-friendly activities abound—from hiking through the surrounding hills to splashing by the lake and visiting the vineyards. End your day with a local meal at Restaurant La Cave in Aigues-Vives or enjoy relaxed dining back at the villa with a barbecue under the stars.
With its peaceful setting, generous space, and access to nature, culture, and cuisine, this villa in Vélieux offers an unforgettable retreat for guests and their furry friends.
