Why a holiday villa in Metropolitan France

Experience the quintessential charm of Metropolitan France by staying in one of our carefully selected villas. From the sun-kissed beaches of the French Riviera to the rolling vineyards of Provence, each region offers a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty that will leave you enchanted.

Whether you're looking for a relaxing getaway or an action-packed adventure, Metropolitan France has something for everyone. Explore historic cities like Paris and Lyon, visit famous landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral, or simply soak up the sun on one of our stunning beaches. With its rich gastronomy, world-class wine, and vibrant arts scene, a villa holiday in Metropolitan France is the perfect way to immerse yourself in la vie en rose.

When to rent a villa in Metropolitan France

The climate in Metropolitan France is as varied as its regions, making each season a unique experience for your villa holiday. Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) are often considered the best times to visit, with mild temperatures, fewer crowds, and lower prices than the peak summer months. The countryside is particularly beautiful during these seasons, with wildflowers blooming in May and the harvest season underway in October. If you're looking for a beach vacation, summer (June-August) is the perfect time to soak up the sun on the Mediterranean coast or enjoy water sports on the Atlantic Ocean.

If you prefer cooler weather and don't mind the possibility of some rain, consider visiting during the shoulder season (March-April or October-November). These periods offer a great balance between comfortable temperatures and lower prices. If you're looking for specific activities like skiing or hiking, plan your villa holiday accordingly: the Pyrenees mountains are ideal for winter sports from December to March, while the spring and autumn months are perfect for hiking and cycling in the countryside. Whichever time of year you choose, make sure to pack accordingly and enjoy the unique charms of Metropolitan France during your villa holiday.

Where to go in Metropolitan France

Metropolitan France is a treasure trove of diverse regions, each offering a unique experience for your villa holiday. If you're looking for a vibrant and cosmopolitan atmosphere, head to the French Riviera (Côte d'Azur) where you'll find glamorous towns like Cannes and Saint-Tropez, lined with upscale boutiques, Michelin-starred restaurants, and lively nightlife. Alternatively, consider the Provence region, famous for its picturesque villages, rolling vineyards, and fields of sunflowers. Here, you can slow down your pace and enjoy quiet walks along the Rhône River or explore the local markets in towns like Arles and Avignon.

For a more relaxed beach vacation, head to the Languedoc-Roussillon region, where miles of golden sands await at destinations like Cap d'Agde and Les Sables d'Olonne. If you're looking for a taste of urban chic, Paris and Lyon are just a short drive away from some stunning villas in nearby countryside towns like Fontainebleau and Beaujolais. And then there's the Pyrenees region, where you can escape to the mountains for hiking, skiing, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the great outdoors. Wherever you choose to go, Metropolitan France has something for everyone, making it a perfect destination for your villa holiday.
