We have enjoyed a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday at Papillon
It really is a smashing property, in a wonderful setting with a superb pool and outside aspect that is ideal for people of any age.
It's the best villa holiday we've ever had (and we have had a few!).
We will be recommending papillon to friends and family and hope to book with you again in the near future.

Owners Profile
Local View Experienced in self catering holidays.

Hi, my name is Julia and I along with my husband Nigel own Papillon in the South West of France, we have a teenage daughter and are passionate about providing the best self catering accommodation that we can.

We have been taking self catering holidays both in France and else where for more than 25 years, we feel we have a good idea what most people are looking for in holiday accommodation, if you are anything like us home comforts and cleanliness are paramount.

Over the years we have had many disappointing holidays when the accommodation or it's facilities do not come up to expectations, fortunately with the advent of websites it is easier to have a better idea of the accommodation, but still few guarantees.

Our aim is to provide a clean and comfortable property with everything necessary for an enjoyable self catering holiday. All our pots, pans and glasses match and are in excellent condition, no cracks, chips or missing handles! The two large settees are great for relaxing on and the bedrooms all have new beds, wardrobes with plenty of hangers and we have mirrors with electric plugs nearby.

We supply a welcome pack to help you along and there is information to give you ideas of things to do. The property is on the edge of a small hamlet and the peace and quiet it offers is one of it's strong features along with a wine maker only a few doors away where you can buy your wine supplies at excellent prices, around 1 euro a litre! While only a short drive away a host of other amenities can be found.

Please take time to browse our website at www.papillon8.com which has a host of information and photographs of the property and surrounding area. We are always happy to answer any questions we can before you book so please feel free to contact us at any time via email.
