Picturesque house in 17th century village, with privacy, pool and views

This bright, sunny, tastefully renovated house with private patio, pool and exquisite views to the Mediterranean is situated in a charming medieval village nestled among the vineyards near the wonderfully historic towns of Pezenas and BĂ©ziers . The house has two bedrooms upstairs, one with private balcony, both with southerly views. The open concept living and dining rooms and the kitchen open directly onto the patio and private pool area. Located in the beautiful Languedoc region, just 1/2-hour's drive from the beaches and fishing villages of the Mediterranean, this is quintessential wine country with rolling hills, tree-lined roads and vineyards as far as the eye can see. Shop in the colorful outdoor markets, enjoy top notch local fare in area restaurants or savour the fresh bounty of the Mediterranean sea and the flavors of the local wines and olive oil on the patio. Relax in true Mediterranean style, or keep busy with hiking, cycling, sightseeing, kayaking or golfing.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker.

Just Perfect!

We had the most relaxing stay. The property is absolutely beautiful with all amenities catered for. Stunning views and a very peaceful village. The host leaves a list of recommended places to visit which were very useful, and we did most of them! Super U about 15 minutes drive in Roujan and Intermarche about same distance in Magalas The market in Pezenas on Saturday morning is well worth a visit.

Lovely house in quiet village

Really super house in very peaceful rural location. Amazing views from the terrace. Swimming pool was great - especially during the heat wave. A real home from home. Eglantine has thought of everything. Close to lots of lovely little towns and only 25 mins to Pezenas - a must! Can’t wait to return.

Lovely house!

We had a great time at Maison Candide, we really appreciated that we were staying in a home where people had taken care in selecting the right furniture and decorations to make the place both charming and habitable. The pool was very refreshing during the hot weather and we had several BBQs on the patio. The village is very small and friendly - we particularly enjoyed talking to the winemakers and seeing the grapes come in from the harvest, also early morning walks up to the castle to see the view.

Blissful two weeks at Maison Candide

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay in Roquessels, a quiet and characteristic French town with lovely locals (and cats)! The house had everything we needed, which was a huge comfort. The house was very cosy and nicely decorated. During the hottest days we made a lot of use of the pool, which was cleaned regularly. We enjoyed our trips to the nearby markets, towns and beaches and had some nice hikes in the area. We could easily contact the owner for any questions we had. We highly recommend Maison Candide and hopefully will be coming back someday!

This was the 4th time we have stayed at Maison Candide and it was as beautiful as ever. Upon walking through the front door you are presented with a wonderful patio area and inviting pool, and everything is so beautifully maintained with wonderful flowers and grape vines.Inside has everything you could need with a well-equipped kitchen, two toilets and good wi-fi (essential with a 16 year old daughter!). We stayed during a heatwave with temperatures between 36 & 39 most days, so the air conditioning downstairs was very welcome. But otherwise we spent a lot of time in the lovely pool, just the right size for cooling off and plenty of room for the 3 of us.Roquessels itself is a delightful, quiet village, and the people are all very welcoming. Make sure you stop by Domaine des Trinities with Simon and Monica if you want to try some amazing wine!As ever, we were sad to leave and will definitely be returning again.

Charming and Peaceful

We really enjoyed our stay. Eglantine's property is a perfect quiet retreat to enjoy southern France. We spent almost all of our time sitting outside beneath the grape vines enjoying the beautiful view towards Gabian. The property has everything you'd need from a short stay to a longer holiday and the pool is wonderful on the hot days. My partner and I have stayed in a lot of holiday lets around europe and both agreed this was by far the best yet. The village of Roquessels is an amazing location with tons of small towns close by, plenty of easily accessible walking spots and the coast not far away. I would recommend this property to anyone that wants to explore the south of France; we'll definitely consider returning ourselves.

A Gem of A Property

We loved our stay at Maison Candide! It was the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the sun. The villa was well equipped and it was great to have a good selection of the basics (olive oil, herbs, washing powder etc) in the cupboards on arrival. The pool was a great hit with the whole family and the perfect way to cool off in the heat. Roquessels is a very quiet village with some lovely walks. We tried a few different boulangeries before eventually settling on Le Fournil de Benjamin opposite Hyper U in Roujan. We would definitely visit again!

Serene and beautiful home is Southern France

My husband and I spent six blissful days at Maison Candide at the end of June 2018. The house was comfortable and lovely, with all the amenities of home - easy kitchen to cook in, comfy beds and pillows, and relaxed living space. We settled in and had a great time exploring the surrounding villages and countryside. Roquessels is within striking distance of so many great villages and cities and even Spain! Each night we would look out at the beautiful view and listen to the absolute quiet you find only in the country. The pool was refreshing, the patio area was completely private, We left Roquessels feeling rested and refreshed.

Beautiful location

The property itself is delightful, very quintessentially French but with all the mod cons ( the air con was a welcome addition as was the English t.v channels for when it rained!) the views from the Villa are just stunning. The pool is small but the owner is clear about that on the description and it kept our two children entertained (11 and 9). The village is very peaceful and everyone we met was friendly. The surrounding areas are full of rolling hills, vineyards and sleepy villages. You definitely need a car to travel round. We visited several beaches, all were within 40-60 mins. We loved Pezenas, such a lively place with plenty of restaurants and beautiful buildings. The owner was really easy to communicate with and left a really handy folder full of useful information about places to visit. If you are looking for a peaceful place, with gorgeous views, that is surrounded by a part of France that feels largely untouched by mass tourism then this is definitely the place to stay.

A lovely place to stay.......................

We had a lovely holiday - thank you. Your house was perfect for us. Beautiful and so peaceful and we enjoyed walking up to the chapel on the hill every evening to watch the sunset. We tried a few of your suggestions - the pancake place in Pezenas was a big hit . As you say they are the best galettes I have ever had.....and Cafe Bio was lovely. Cycling was fun. We did three bigger rides - one from the house up to Pezenes-les-Mines and back round via a couple of the local towns. We also did a nice ride down the canal from Capestang to near Bezier and back. Finally we cycled down the coast from Sete to Agde. The cycling was probably the high point of the trip. It was 25 deg every day and just lovely to watch the vines turning orange. My daughters used the pool on a few days but it was a little too "fresh" for my wife and I! Things couldnt really have been any better

Peace

The house is a home and makes a wonderful quiet space to spend a week. The kitchen was well-equipped so cooking and eating was straight forward. Good to have a modern very clean bathroom, although the separate shower in the bedroom is a little quirky - I was glad there was a proper one! Sitting outside on the terrace is the highlight with the pool readily available for cooling off. It didn't matter to the children that the pool was small as it was deep enough and just big enough to provide plenty of entertainment opportunities. The views from the terrace are just wonderful at every time of day. I loved being up before everyone else and just watching the sun come up and the swallows and martins flying around. The plants all around the terrace on an irrigation system make such a good addition to a holiday rental as so often places are soulless with gardens that are empty so the lush greenery was much appreciated. Roquessels is a small village and a car is essential, but you are near enough to Pezenas (which is beautiful) and other small villages to make little trips out very easy. We didn't venture far, probably because the house was so accommodating and enjoyable to be in that we didn't need to. Pat and Mel were very helpful by email before our trip and answered all our questions promptly and warmly. For a haven of rest and relaxation I would highly recommend this property.

Idyllic Rural Retreat

We have just returned having spent the most wonderful time at Maison Candide. Located in the quiet small village of Roquessels it is perfect for those that are looking for privacy and rural tranquility. The house is perfectly equipped even for the strict self-caterers having everything you could possibly need. Not for everyone, but having Freesat TV with all the regular English channels means that those who wish to keep up with what’s happening back home can do so. A car is essential since there is no Boulangerie, shops or restaurants in the village. Nearest Boulangerie is an 8 minute drive to Gabian. For your supermarket Roujan is just a further 7 mins on. Out and about there are so many Caveau’s to visit. Try the local “Trinities” in Roquessels or visit Faugeres, Neffies or Fontes for your Rose. You are literally spoilt for choice. Pezenas is just 20 minutes away and in 35 minutes you can be in Meze or Bouzigues. Eglantine made sure that we were aware of everything ahead of our arrival and also dealt with the problem of a broken washing machine very promptly. Within 3 days of letting her know of the problem a new one was installed and running. Fantastic service which we truly appreciated. If you want to enjoy the beauty of this part of France and get away from it all this is just perfect.

Charming house in a great location

We, a family of four including an 11 year old and 6 year old, have just returned from Maison Candide and we all absolutely loved the charming house. We drove from the UK by car and were looking for somewhere well situated for day trips but isolated enough to feel like we'd completely escaped on days spent at home, Maison Candide is a great balance. Roquessels is a very small village and we had some great peaceful evening walks down the lanes through vineyards or up to the Chateau at the top of the hill. The house was suitable for the 4 of us and the kids loved both the pool and the wifi - which made for a harmonious holiday. The sun stayed on the garden most of the day and the views from the garden & balcony were stunning, the garden is full of colour - so appealing you just want to spend all day there! Once inside, the house is so well equipped that every need is covered and there are enough little zones to feel like you are not living top of each other. There are supermarkets a short car drive away and pretty villages to walk round too. We loved visiting the coast especially nearby Meze where the water is so warm, there's a great choice of restaurants, parking is easy and you can pretend you're rich enough to own one of the boats lining the harbour! We also enjoyed the nearby Velorail and visits to Sete, Adge, Narbonne and Barcelona - it really is a great base point :) Our stay came late July/early August and the weather was consistent throughout the fortnight with temperatures often hitting +30 degrees and the sky being cloudless (I think there was only one cloudy day the whole time we were there and it brought with it a brilliant evening thunderstorm). Pat was very easy to communicate with before and during the stay plus had left lots of useful information whether it be instructions for something at the house or recommendations for local tourism. All in all a great few weeks. Thanks, Liz, Steve, Kayla and Edward xx

Schöner Urlaub in nettem Haus

Wir hatten einen erholsamen Urlaub in dem netten Haus. Die RĂ€ume sind schön eingerichtet, Bei heißen Sommerwetter heizt das Haus allerdings trotz der SchlaglĂ€den stark auf. Eine Klimaanlage ist zwar vorhanden, wir haben sie aber ohne Anleitung leider nicht ans Laufen bekommen. Der Pool ist groß genug, um sich abzukĂŒhlen (nur die Pumpe dĂŒrfte leiser sein) und es ist immer ein Eckchen mit erholsamem Schatten verfĂŒgbar. Alle Mahlzeiten haben wir auf der ĂŒberdachten, bewachsenen Terrasse genossen und abends sind wir noch eine kleine Runde durch das Dörfchen gegangen.Ein Parkplatz ist vor dem Haus verfĂŒgbar - sollte man allerdings ein langes Auto haben, parkt man besser unten an der Straße.Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, StrĂ€nde und SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten gibt es im Umkreis von 20-50 Minuten.Alles in allem ein schöner Urlaub
