| "Myself (29), my wife (28) and our 2 children (2 and 3) stayed in the villa during the latter half of May.
The villa was clean and tidy with all the mod cons from home (british sky, dishwasher, washing machine etc)
With the two kids it was great, they had a room to share with two beds in. I am always a bit aprehensive with holidays and taking the kids as you never know what facilities are nearby, especially to occupy younger children. The development has a secure entry and exit with the same to the pool entrance. As the pool is shared I expected to see lots there, but it was really quiet. The pool is not heated so you really brace yourself getting in, but the kids loved it. And when the sun is intense, it is a welcome relief.
The villa has a nice patio area outside with furniture, so you can eat outside and we enjoyed a few BBQs!
I would recommend having a car for at least a few days as the supermarkets are mostly out of town, and you would struggle to walk. Unless you went to the town for groceries.
The town of Pezenas is very pretty and just a 10-15 minute walk to the centre. There are many old little roads to explore in the centre that are typically french style, the real part of france.
The nearest beach is about 20 minutes by car at Vias, I would recommend picking up a visitors map at the airport so that you have the general locations. There are also some some nice places at le Cap de Agde and Sete. You can also explore in the mountains and see le Lake de Salagou which is very nice, a must for watersports enthusiasts.
If you fancy a bit of history you can also take the 2 hour (approx by non-motorway) trip to Carcassone. This is the town with another town within it's castle walls. It's very impresive.
Enough of the sightseeing tour, but I would recommend this for a nice visit to france.
The couple who manage the property were also really helpful.
As we have not used villarenters before, we did not know what to expect, but the description was accurate."
