What visitors have said about Villa Pres du Lac |
| |

First off, may I say what a fantastic villa you have. The information provided, amenities and decor were perfect. The pool area in particular was excellent. Not only for the view of course, but the design was very clever: Plants were picturesque but not so close as to encourage insects in the pool, the ground never got too hot, and the pool was large enough for swimming and diving. Lots of beautiful butterflies, and hardly any wasps or mosquitoes. My parents were in the area and popped round, and were also extremely impressed, and rather jealous!
We both agreed that it has been by far the best villa all round that we have ever stayed at.

We had an absolutely wonderful time in your villa last week, thanks for
everything! The villa is beautiful and obviously the setting is idyllic, we had a very relaxing time and spent most of the week in the pool or in the outdoor dining area. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a villa to rent in the south of France.

Thanks! We had a great time in your great villa and are really jealous, I couldn't keep my mother out of the pool. I was especially pleased to fined some one else who liked Science fantasy books even though I had read them all before.
We will be deciding in the new year on holidays for next year so if we decide on France again we will defiantly be in touch.
