Villa Retreat with Pool and pets

Escape to the tranquil beauty of southern France with a stay at this stunning villa in Vélieux, a peaceful hilltop village nestled between forests, vineyards, and the majestic views of the Pyrenees. Perfect for families and groups, this spacious villa offers privacy, comfort, and nature on your doorstep.
Surrounded by a huge private garden, the villa invites guests to relax in total seclusion. Start your day with breakfast on the sun-drenched terrace, take a dip in the heated pool, or unwind in the outdoor bubble bath. With scenic walking and cycling trails all around, this location is a haven for outdoor lovers and pets alike—your four-legged companions will love the wide-open space and shaded paths through the countryside.

Nearby, the medieval village of Minerve—one of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France—offers an unforgettable day trip with its historic Cathar ruins, natural stone bridges, and dramatic gorge views. A short drive takes you to the charming village of La Caunette or the local market town of Olonzac for regional wines and artisan goods. Horse riding is just 5 km away in Rieussec, while Lac de Jouarres (23 km) provides a lakeside beach perfect for swimming and picnicking.
Pet-friendly activities abound—from hiking through the surrounding hills to splashing by the lake and visiting the vineyards. End your day with a local meal at Restaurant La Cave in Aigues-Vives or enjoy relaxed dining back at the villa with a barbecue under the stars.
With its peaceful setting, generous space, and access to nature, culture, and cuisine, this villa in Vélieux offers an unforgettable retreat for guests and their furry friends.

Great location

House was clean and well equipped. Pool and hot tub great . Beds comfy. Only issue was anyone walking upstairs was very loud downstairs..so overnight quite disturbing to everyone. There was no check in or details left . The person of contact never appeared and we had to ring round to get the key . Pool man was brilliant though and came out as required.person of contact

Velieux ❤️❤️❤️

Great locations most beautiful views both day and night. Reception and problems was dealt with quickly. The layout is great for 2 family’s as 2 en-suites are down stairs ( there is no door between bedroom and toilet/shower) and kids upstair. Plenty of space for everyone inside and out. Some garden games are provided This property is looking tired with with a few issues thought broken tiles in bathroom, sockets left with no fronts on or very loose from the wall, the hot tub broke and seemed to be aging , ants where trailing though the upstairs bed. To sum up if your like to be away from it all and spend time together around the pool and garden this is perfect as issues do t really matter when your having fun.

Très beau gites grandes surfaces piscine au pied de la maison avec bain a bulles et a l'horizon les Pyrénées très beaux villages aux alentours. Seul problème le numéro de téléphone de notre contact fourni par belvilla sur notre ticket de séjour pour la remise des clés était faux. Nous avons pensés pendant quelques heures a une ARNAQUE Cela vous perturbe quand même. Nous avons donnez 25 coups de téléphone pour réussir a avoir les clés . Heureusement que la villa était parfaite pour passer un agréable séjour.

Vi hade en otrolig vistelse på denna villa! Den uppvärmda poolen var en hit med barnen, och utsikten över Pyrenéerna från terrassen var helt enkelt fantastisk, Köket var välutrustat, vilket gjorde att vi kunde laga familjemåltider medan vi njöt av den friska luften utanför, Det närliggande medeltida Minerve-fortet var ett fascinerande besök, och vi älskade att utforska vandringslederna i det omgivande området, Värdarna var mycket välkomnande och såg till att vi hade allt vi behövde, Ser verkligen fram emot att komma tillbaka!

Außergewöhnliche Aussicht über das Tal, ruhiges und schönes Dorf. Viele gute Betten. Schönes Schwimmbad. Möbel etwas veraltet, zu viele persönliche Gegenstände noch im Haus. Whirlpool nicht verfügbar. Kein Wäschetrockner. Die Küche ist nicht groß genug für eine Familie mit mehr als 6 Personen. Im Hochsommer ist es eine Herausforderung, die Wärme draußen zu halten, da es keine Klimaanlage gibt.

Goede ontvangst, zeer behulpzame mensen. Mooie locatie, rustige omgeving. Wel enkele opmerkingen: - Woning en tuin was onverzorgd en weinig onderhouden. - Zwembad was niet proper doordat robot niet werkte. - Toilet op het gelijkvloers spoelde niet door, ook problemen met afvoer van lavabo in de slaapkamer. - Er was een barbecue aanwezig maar die was zeer klein en vervuild. Kon zeker niet gebruikt worden voor het aantal personen die in de woning kunnen. - Heel wat problemen om wasmachine in gang te krijgen. Uiteindelijk toch gelukt maar bepaalde kledingstukken waren verbrand of gescheurd.

mooie en attenvolle ontvangst -sfeervol huis met alle voorzieningen die je maar kan wensen. Werden op onze wenken bediend bij problemen. Enkel minpunt : de oprit heeft tussen straat en oprit wat putten en niveauverschillen, daar heeft vooral onze wagen een blijvend aandenken : het spatbord onderaan voor is gekraakt en ook achteraan krassen. Misschien daar wat aandacht aandacht voor, niet iedereen rijdt met en Jeep. Anders super vakantie, ,prachtig wee, lekker alleen.
