Client Comments

Love the location, love the house, love the weather, love the swimming. Mrs P, South France Villas client September 2018
Lovely house and we had a good holiday. Miriam July 2014
Had a very good time at La Grange. The house is lovely and large, and having large ensuites in all the bedrooms is very convenient. The facilities and utensils in the house are excellent. The outside area and pool are very well maintained and ideal for sitting outside and having a splash in the pool. Very handy having the grocers, bar and restaurants just up the road.Paul, September 2013
