Beautifully refurbished Charming Villa with heated pool, in picturesque Fayence

The Yellow house was purchased by my parents in 2011. They loved the quiet location and have refurbished the property to provide a comfortable, restful holiday retreat for our growing family,

Our family regularly holiday at the villa. It is ideal for children and adults alike. We love to relax by the pool, doing nothing at all, or spend a day enjoying the many and varied delights of this part of Provence. Cannes, Antibes and the beaches (and Roman ruins) of Fréjus/St. Raphael are roughly 30-45 minutes away. 5 km from Fréjus are the less crowded, yet family-friendly, sandy beaches of St. Aygulf. The delightful St. Tropez is a little further round the coast and can be reached by boat or car. Fayence itself is one of the charming medieval 'villages perchés' of the Var. It has many restaurants, cafés and bars to suit all requirements, and holds regular bustling markets where fresh Provençal food and artisan delights are on display. During August Fayence hosts the Night Ball and Market once a week. 5 minutes from the house is the large, modern Super U supermarket and the local tennis club where the energetic can book lessons. A 10 minute drive away is the Fayence-Tourettes Aerodrome, home to the premier gliding club and Airplay Skydiving Centre. You can either watch all the activities from the family friendly restaurant on site, or if you are feeling adventurous, you can book gliding lessons and learn to skydive and parachute. 15 minutes from the house is the prestigious Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort and then another 15 minutes further down the road is the beautiful Lac de Saint Cassien: a large freshwater lake encircled by tree lined hills. It is a recreational area with water sports for all the family: There are bars, eateries and plenty of picnic areas around the lake. It is also a conservation and nature reserve and a favourite destination for carp fishing. The countryside is ideal for horse riding, cycling and hiking. A day trip to the Verdon Gorge is highly recommended. It is a spectacular river canyon with great opportunities for rock climbing, white-water rapids for the intrepid adventurer and paddling for the less so.
