Provençal villa on Mas de Gigaro for rent
Résidence Les Marronniers is a Provençal villa, situated on the Presqu'île de Saint-Tropez on the French Riviera. It lies in a beautiful, unspoiled setting with a breathtaking, panoramic sea view. With its four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 175m² sun-drenched terrace, the villa comfortably sleeps 8 people.
“We have enjoyed a wonderful three week break with our six-headed family in this heavenly spot. We loved every moment of our holiday here. The weather was perfect: we cooked good food and ate out on the terrace every day.”
-- The Knights
