About this property
On the edge of the medieval village of Seillans, Les Magnolias offers an easy Provençal charm and sweeping views of the French Riviera hinterland. Set at the end of a cul-de-sac, this well-kept villa invites a slower pace of life, where mornings begin on the terrace with breakfast and end on a characterful restaurant terrace just a short walk away.
Inside, the house is thoughtfully arranged for simple French living. The open-plan layout brings together a bright kitchen, sitting area and dining space, leading directly to the elevated terrace that looks out across the valley. It's the kind of view that never quite leaves you, whether you're sipping a chilled rosé or watching the light change as the day unfolds. All three bedrooms are air-conditioned for comfort on warmer nights, and with two bathrooms, the space works well for families or small groups of friends.
Outside, a sun deck surrounds the 9-metre swimming pool, creating a relaxed setting for lazy afternoons. Table tennis and a poolside bathroom mean everything you need is close to hand.
Seillans, officially one of France’s prettiest villages, is less than 10 minutes away on foot. Here you’ll find stone-paved lanes, leafy squares and a handful of excellent restaurants and cafés. For days out, Lac de Saint-Cassien offers watersports and lakeside picnics, while the Riviera’s golden beaches are just a 45-minute drive away. Gliding in Fayence, hiking through the hills, golf at Terre Blanche or spa days nearby all make it easy to mix adventure with indulgence.
Perfect for guests seeking an authentic yet comfortable base, Les Magnolias captures the essence of relaxed living with just the right touch of ease and traditional style.
Perched on the edge of the medieval village of Seillans, officially recognised as one of the Plus Beaux Villages de France, Les Magnolias enjoys a wonderful setting in the heart of the Var countryside, only 40 minutes from the French Riviera coast.
The house is located towards the end of a cul-de-sac, around a 10-minute walk from the village. With its narrow cobbled lanes, charming squares, inviting restaurants and sweeping views over olive groves and vineyards, Seillans is a picturesque base for a holiday immersed in French authenticity.
Nearby Fayence (6.5km) is another highlight of the region with its wonderful markets, café terraces and Provençal ambience. Here you will find a good selection of places to eat, shops and supermarkets for added convenience. For a unique experience, Fayence is a renowned gliding hub offering scenic aerial tours over Provence.
Explore other neighbouring hilltop villages such as Callian (13km) and Montauroux (15km), each with their own character and dining spots. The delightful village of Bargème (32km), one of the highest in the Var, is also well worth a visit for its restaurants and spectacular vistas, reached via winding roads and amazing landscapes. For outdoor adventures, head to Lac de Saint-Cassien (15km) where you can rent boats, enjoy lakeside restaurants, pretty nature walks and other summer activities.
Keen golfers will be thrilled with the proximity of the prestigious Terre Blanche Golf Resort (12km), just across the valley, boasting two world-class 18-hole courses and a luxury spa. For more pampering, non-residents are welcome at the spas at both Terre Blanche and the Domaine de Fayence. Active guests will also appreciate the wealth of cycling routes, forest trails for mountain biking and even a local horse-riding centre just a short drive away.
Coastal adventures are within reach too. The Mediterranean towns of Fréjus and Saint-Raphaël are about a 40-minute drive, while glamorous Cannes (46km) and seaside Sainte-Maxime (52km) are around an hour away. From Sainte-Maxime, hop on a ferry for a day trip to Saint-Tropez.
With Nice Airport only an hour from door to door, Les Magnolias offers an effortlessly accessible escape in the heart of the French Riviera hinterland.
