Villa Les Bouyssières-Charming villa in the south of France

Photo2 copie.jpg

Once upon a time, hidden in the heart of unspoiled nature, at the end of a quiet lane lined with dry-stone walls... stands a house that seems to have stepped straight out of a fairy tale, beneath the shade of an old oak tree.

A charming country road, winding its way through traditional Provençal farmhouses and sheepfolds scattered across the garrigue, gently leads you there.

Warm and luminous, set on a hill near the picturesque little village of Ferrières-les-Verreries, the cottage enjoys an ideal location at the foothills of the Cévennes mountains, just 35 minutes from Montpellier and Nîmes, in a beautifully preserved natural setting.

A beautiful pool nestled in lush greenery.

The Grounds

Two hectares of enchanting Mediterranean gardens unfold like an Alice in Wonderland landscape: box trees, dry-stone terraces, each with its own particular universe; a gazebo in the shade of a century-old oak; the  fragrance of rosemary and thyme; the song of cicadas ... everything here, invites you to slow down and dream. 

The panoramic view over the Séranne and the Cévennes mountains is breathtaking. Enjoy a drink while admiring the sunset before losing yourself in the mysteries of the Milky Way ...

Inside

Drawn straight out of a fairy tale, this charming cottage combines the traditional character of old stone with modern comfort and luxury, in a very romantic 19th-century atmosphere.

All on one level, the house offers a fully equipped open kitchen with a lovely view over the swimming pool, and a typical Cévenol living room with a fireplace, hi-fi system, home-cinema, Wi-Fi ...

A  pleasant patio, with large bay windows opening onto a beautiful landscape, leads to the four bedrooms.

Each room offers its own romantic atmosphere with bedding and bed linen comparable to those found in 4- to 5- stars hotels.

Calendar and Rates

IMG_6931.jpg

It will be your haven of peace, for one, two, three or four weeks, in or out of season—or simply for a weekend…

The place is imbued with a truly special energy that allows you to reconnect with the truth of nature, with what is essential… sheltered, for a time, from the madness of the world.

Each season is a spectacle, an adventure, offering its colours, its fragrances and its music… a symphony that repeats unfailingly, note for note…

 

Violets and lesser periwinkle in spring; the return from Africa of nightingales, cuckoos, hoopoes, short-toed eagles, scops owls and bee-eaters; each with its own night in the frogs’ chorus; the ballet of tree peonies followed by herbaceous peonies; the scent of thyme; the waltz of roses, then the song of cicadas, and already it is summer, in all its radiance.

 

A few sunsets later, the flute-like note of the robin releases the brilliance of autumn colours; the earth finally drinks again, then catches its breath before the next performance.

Another circuit around our star…

The stage is set, the actors are ready…

All that is missing is you.

                 Livre d'or

                                 Beautiful honeymoon

Coming from Russia, my husband and I spent there our two weeks honeymoon at the beginning of September. The property is even nicer than as described and we enjoyed there one of our best and happiest stay ever. The house, furnished in a very romantic 19th century style just looks like coming out from some fairy tale. We found there all the comfort and luxury we were looking for and even more. The bedrooms are beautiful and so romantic. The area is so calm and peaceful that for the first time of my life I could hear the birds' wings' flapping. The view, and the sky by night with all its stars, were really stunning. We are dreaming about coming again in this beautiful place. Thank you so much for everything.
