About this villa rental
Recent fully air-conditioned villa of 145 m2, of traditional construction on two levels, on one hectare of landscaped land, in olive trees, vines, fig, plum, lavender and other Mediterranean species, in the peace of the Var countryside, and not overlooked , while being very close to the village (5 minutes by car or 7 minutes by footpath of 750 meters).
The house consists of a large entrance with separate toilet, serving on half level, upstairs a master bedroom (sleeping 2 people) with TV and with its solarium, a bathroom, separate toilet, and another bedroom adult (sleeping 2 people).
On the lower half level, a large 45 m2 living and dining room, with open kitchen fully equipped with its pantry, corner fireplace, living room opening onto a terrace with wood-fired barbecue, shaded by an arbor and its vineyard . From the kitchen, access to a comfortable fully equipped veranda, overlooking a large terrace, and to a bedroom intended for children (sleeping 4 people) with direct access to its bathroom.
The exteriors have been arranged all around the house, in different spaces and different terraces, so that everyone can enjoy both the absolute calm and the beauty of the place. You can, for example, have breakfast, or have a barbecue under the arbor in the shade of the vine, relax in a hammock stretched between two olive trees, enjoy the sun on the large terrace between lawn and palm trees, or enjoy the swimming pool and all its facilities.
The pool area, located on another wing of the house, includes a fully equipped summer kitchen, with a large three-burner gas stove, oven, ceramic hob, fridge and freezer, and its bar made of local dry stone. The summer kitchen opens onto a large terrace with teak table and chairs, also shaded by an arbor, and terrace extending onto the pool decks, 9 meters long by 4.5 meters wide. The swimming pool, equipped with a large Romanesque staircase with whirlpool, is 1.10 m deep in half to allow the little ones to enjoy it on foot. On its other half, the bottom is 1.80 meters in diamond, to allow the older ones to dive safely. Finally, its beaches are equipped with sunbeds and sun loungers. A play area for children is also provided with slide gantry, table tennis, a trampoline, and ornamental pools planted with water lilies, and populated with goldfish and koi carp.
The Derroc will therefore be able to accommodate 8 people in very good comfort, in a magnificent setting and with rare tranquility during the four seasons. Walks and hikes starting from the house, or even the animations and the life of the village 'a stone's throw away', like the many markets and animations, the shows of the Théâtre du Rocher, the open-air cinema, the restaurants will delight you and will make your holidays at Derroc unforgettable. The house has a very nice pedestrian path that will allow you to get to the village on foot very quickly (the path is 750 meters and it takes 7 minutes), the last four photos of the ad show this path.
All linens are provided at no extra charge, end of stay cleaning is also included.

If you are looking for an absolutely beautiful property, inside and out, this is the one for you. The house is very clean, nicely furnished, fully stocked, and beautifully decorated. The furniture is high quality and very comfortable.The views are beyond stunning, and the sense of peacefulness is ever present. Sometimes the only noise we heard was from the birds singing and the wind rustling the trees. I loved the balcony off one of the bedrooms. At night the stars were so bright I felt like I could touch them. In the morning, I stepped out and marveled at the clear blue sky and the ever changing scenery. Although, there were only two of us and our small dog, this house is spacious and perfect for a family with children. Our little dog had lots of space to run around and explore, and the property is fully fenced.Francois was very readily available if we needed anything. But, we didn’t need much, everything is in good working order. The village is about a 10-12 minute walk through a trail with beautiful views of the valley below. It is a bit of a hike so you should be in decent shape to enjoy the walk to the village. We are seniors with a 14lb dog who walked to the village often. The walk is worth it. The village is absolutely charming with plenty of restaurants, cafes, an ice cream shop and small shops. Loved the comfort, beauty, peace, and cultural experience of living in a medieval village. Thanks Francois for offering this amazing home.

We stayed 3 weeks in this beautiful house and enjoyed every minute.Francois was an incredible host and starting with answering a lot of questions in advance, he was always on side to solve the small issues and give advice and guidance for appropriate touring.Check-in and depart was as easy as all the communication. The pool area and especially the outdoor kitchen was superb and equipped with everything you could possibly need, so is the complete house.Well maintained, comfortable living space and 3 bedroom will suit most of the families needs.Very quiet surroundings and no neighbours that will disturb your holiday, next to the city, but: there are hills and you will need a car ( and some driving skills) to get your groceries.The walk to the village is nice with stunning views, but you will need a certain fitness level to get back up the hills.We definitely recommend a spend in this house, there is so much space and the large garden is a guarantee, that all guests will have their rest and some place to find some peace.5 Stars!

We had a fantastic time at the villa in Cotignac. We were two families and the villa had everything we needed. We loved the outdoor kitchen area by the pool, and the table tennis table. The air conditioning worked well, and the villa is well equipped overall. It was also great to walk into Cotignac along the beautiful pathway, to visit the market and the various shops and restaurants. François was an excellent host, very responsive.

This was a great stay in a fantastic and well equipped villa. We stayed during a heatwave and the whole villa benefits from high quality air conditioning and thick walls. The town is a 15 minute walk away, which may not suit elderly people or infants due to the hills, but otherwise it was no issue. The road to get to the house is a narrow track, so it probably isn’t one for a nervous driver. Francois is an incredibly communicative and responsive host, he lives opposite and was very helpful as and when required. Even after the visit locating a child’s toy. The outdoor kitchen is great but we didn’t feel like using it much during the heat wave! There is a big garden which is fenced, which was enough to contain our small dogs but larger inquisitive dogs may run off as there are lots of things to sniff!
