Villa With Private Pool And Stunning Views.

Three-bedroomed air-conditioned family villa, superbly equipped, located on the southern edge of Cessenon-sur-Orb in the Languedoc. The villa is set on a hillside in 1 hectare of landscaped gardens with an unoverlooked private swimming pool. It has its own small vineyard. There are stunning views from both the patio area and the pool area. The villa is just 10 minutes walk from the centre of Cessenon, where there are restaurants, bars and shops. Cessenon is a lively town with a market 2 days a week. There are many lovely walks in the area including part of a GR route. Cycling routes are well-signed. Canoeing on the River Orb is available nearby. The historic town of Beziers is 30 minutes away by car. Other places of interest are the Canal du Midi, Carcassonne and Narbonne.

Outstanding villa with fabulous hosts
We have just returned from the most fabulous week at this wonderful villa with our adult children. Bill couldn’t have been more helpful prior to us arriving answering many emails quickly and with patience. We found the directions and the road to the Villa much easier than anticipated… we have a hybrid mini which managed the drive with ease.. The villa is outstanding it has absolutely everything you would need for a stay and although we had five adults in the villa we never felt on top of each other… The villa was impeccably clean and the welcome pack was very much appreciated and contained everything we needed for the first night. We felt it an absolute privilege to be able to experience this accommodation and although we originally had many day trips planned we barely left the villa for the entirety of our stay… thank you so much Bill , we can’t recommend this highly enough

Great property, well equipped and with a stunning pool, but...
there were a couple of draw-backs. First the very many positives; the house was clean and well furnished. Obviously a family home as the kitchen came equipped with nice touches such as a welcome hamper and drawers containing the essentials with which to prepare meals. There were a good supply of toiletries and soft towels including some for the pool. All in all from the interior and the pool this was one of the best villas we have enjoyed in all our years travelling France. However there were two worrying aspects. Firstly the access to the house was through the tortuous village of Cessenon-sur-Orb with its tiny streets that became narrower and more hilly as we neared the house. The drive was almost impassable being narrow, lumpy overgrown. This was with the latest and most powerful 4x4 currently on the market. We discussed at length whether a standard family car would have made it up the drive without sustaining damage and we were all firm in the belief it would not. Secondly the aspect of the house was firmly south facing so trying to find shade was very difficult. We tried using the parasols but the wind precluded their use most of the time. The built in BBQ around the pool was unusable as it was in full sun until 9pm with temperatures on the terrace approaching 40 degrees. Even after sunset the area was too hot to use. Nearly all the windows faced south which resulted in the shutters to the house having to be closed all the time . This was a great shame considering the magnificent views. So, in conclusion, we had an enjoyable stay but beware the negatives that precluded this from being exceptional.

Secluded peacefull Villa
Dealing with the owner was a pleasure from first enquiry to return of deposit. All mails responded to in excellent time. The villa is amazing, the online photos do not due it justice. Very spacious and well equipped. The pool area is excellent with a nice summer kitchen area, not overlooked at all.

The Villa is well placed up in the hills with fantastic views. It feels very private and you are not overlooked. The grounds are quite extensive and very well landscaped. I am a keen gardener and was very impressed with the design, it borrows and merges beautifully with the surrounding landscape. Town is a 10 minute walk and not too strenuous, especially if you go early morning before the sun is too hot. There are a couple of bakeries, a butchers/deli a bar and a couple of restaurants. For bigger shops there are a couple of supermarkets about 15 minutes away by car. I was there with my family, including a toddler. We mostly enjoyed relaxing by the pool and in and around the villa. I should mention that the villa is very well stocked. The kitchen had more and better utensils/crockery/cutlery than my home kitchen. Also I had taken lots of things I did not need. There is a stock of washing up liquid, dishwasher and washing machine tablets, cleaning products, soaps, handwashes ect...... The bedrooms are nicely decorated and the beds comfortable. I slept well thanks to the air-conditioning in the bedrooms. The pool area is slightly set away from the main property, on a lower terrace. It has a nice tiled area with loungers and an outside kitchen with a built in BBQ. There is a washing up area and even a fridge. The views are wonderful. It got a little hot down there at 1700 so we would often venture back to the coolness of the terrace off the living room. The beaches are about a 35-40 minute drive. We went to Valras Plage near Beziers. To be honest it was not really my thing. A little naff with 1000s of people crammed on the hot sands. I can recommend a visit to Sete, with its lovely canals and seafood restaurants. We also had a nice time in Beziers, there is a good shopping centrre called the Polygon, where we bought our toddlers first pair of shoes. St Chinian is worth a visit on Market Days. There is a lovely restuarant called cafe de paix (or something similar). It is very popular so you may need to book. We also visited Roquebrun and had an ice cream and a swim in the Orb , where the river bends and slows, there is a pebble beach and lots of people swimming. I think a car is a must. If flying have a look at Beziers, it is the closest by far. The drive up the villa is a little bumpy, and there are a few ruts in the turning area to start the ascent up the villa drive. I had a 4x4 but to be honest it is not a necessity!

Far from the maddening crowd
From our first enquiry through to booking the owners could not have been more helpful - excellent communication. I am super fussy when it comes to booking properties and all my questions were answered extremely promptly and comprehensively. I often decide where going to book on the basis on how well owners communicate as it says alot about what you can expect from your holiday stay. Upon arriving there was a an excellent welcome hamper including wine and all necessary basic groceries. Again a good indication that the owners care about their guests experience. The description of the house was very accurate - infact the house exceeded our expectations in terms of location, local vicinity, layout and amenities. Immaculate throughout. The views from the house were fantastic, and so very peaceful despite being on the edge of a village. Sunrise was always especially beautiful. We know the area relatively well, so we knew what to expect lots of pretty hill top villages, lots of lazy lunches, kayaking on the orb (the orb valley is very beautiful and worth driving up if not into kayaking!) Many BBQ's enjoyed in the evening (watch out for the sprinklers in the evening :) ) FYI the local supermarket in Cessenon is well stocked and is open Sunday Morning (The Super U is not) Would highly recommend for a laid back relaxing break with abit of kayaking thrown in to keep the kids happy. .

Maison très agréable avec vue magnifique
Très belle maison très bien située à l’entrée du parc du Haut Languedoc. Maison un peu à l’écart du village, dans le calme absolu, mais les commerces (boulangerie, Carrefour Market, tabac-presse, boucher, pharmacie…) restent accessibles à pied en moins de 10 minutes. L’Orb est également accessible à pied en 10-15 minutes. Possible donc de se passer de voiture. Très nombreux sentiers de randonnées et VTT alentours, au départ de la maison. De nombreux centres d’interêt a proximité (mer, montagnes, gorges, villages, voie verte, canoë, pêche…). Depuis la maison, la vue sur le village et les collines est spectaculaire. La maison est parfaitement équipée, en particulier la cuisine, rien ne manque. Bill, le propriétaire reste disponible et très réactif en cas de besoin. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le panier d’accueil bien garni ainsi que les produits d’hygiène a disposition, merci beaucoup !

Une très belle propriété pour de belles vacances au soleil
Une maison tout en longueur sur les hauteurs à quelques centaines de mètres du village (on y accède par un petit chemin un peu escarpé, mais sans problème avec un Renault Captur), calme, très agréable et très bien équipée (carnet avec des instructions claires, cuisine très complète), un hôte qui répond rapidement à vos questions, une très belle piscine avec une vue magnifique sur la vallée et le soleil jusqu’à tard dans la soirée. L’Orb est un peu plus bas pour la baignade, des activités multiples à proximité (visites de villes et villages de l’Hérault et de l’Aude, canoës, marchés, brocantes…). Nous étions très bien.

Villa au calme avec belle piscine et vue magnifique
Villa très agréable, en hauteur avec vue imprenable depuis la piscine. Calme à 10 minutes à pieds du village. Cuisine parfaitement équipée, il ne manque rien. Idéale pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis. Seul point négatif : Surpris que la location n’inclut pas le chauffage de la piscine. Nous avons été prévenus quelques jours avant l’arrivée qu’il faut payer 180 euros supplémentaires pour la chauffer ! Ce n’est pas précisé dans l’annonce.
