Domaine de la Hille
What a beautiful home with stunning interiors, fabulous big grounds and spectacular swimming pool (complete with tiles which shimmer in the sun due to the tiny flecks of gold in them!). This is quite an estate to behold with tennis court, huge rolling lawns, double height ceilings as well as more toys for adults and children alike than we have come across in any other villa. If you have had enough reading the latest bestseller by the divine pool there is so much more on offer: from volleyball and archery to tennis, golf and boules. Something for everyone!

Children will be in heaven with all the various things to do, there’s an x box for those desperate to get out of the sun (!), a 4 bedded room just for small people, enormous kitchen, endless places to sit in the sun or shade as well as the delights of the local area. The rooms have high ceilings, many showing lovely wooden beams. Bedrooms abound with beautiful covers on the beds, antique bedstands, prettily painted French furniture and lovely muted colours. The rooms are chic and stylish with polished clay tile floors, cool underfoot. Parts of the house date back over 1,000 years but the owners have made the most perfect job in bringing it up to modern standards whilst retaining its original features. All in all this beautiful estate is there for the taking, the sense of space and generosity abound. It is an inviting house where comfort and luxury sit hand in hand. A truly stunning villa and one we are thrilled to have in our portfolio.
“I came here to get away from everything, we hardly left the house as there's so much to do. Endless games of tennis, boules and volleyball. I never wanted to go home!”
