Description
Are you seeking a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the picturesque landscapes of the Var vineyards, surrounded by the serene beauty of Southern France ? Look no further ! My quaint villa nestled amidst lush greenery and sun-kissed vineyards invites you to embark on a memorable journey.
About me:
I am a warm-hearted single grandmother residing in a splendid villa, adorned with a refreshing pool, located in the heart of a Var vineyards. Surrounded by nature's bounty, my home offers tranquility and a slice of French countryside living with a mild Mediterranean climate. I love listen classical music, to travel, to cook new recipes and learn from cultural exchanges ! I speak currently French and Italian, I have been practicing English and Spanish for ten years and I am currently learning Russian for few years now. There is no age to learn !
I am completely independent, I simply need to relieve myself of some tasks that require a lot of physical effort at my age and some company to share my meals, play cards and chat.
As you can see on the photos, I live with 2 large dogs (Savane and Chaplin) and a small cat (Zoé) so if you like petting furry animals they will love you. They are energetic and very cuddly. 🐶
What I offer you:
- A comfortable accommodation in my air-conditioned villa
- An immersion in the idyllic charm of Var vineyards
- A chance to play and to bond with our affectionate dogs
- A tranquil environment to unwind and rejuvenate
- Various French and Italian dishes (I could teach you some of my specialties if you're interested)
- Authentic hospitality, cultural exchanges and conversations in foreign languages (French, Italian, Spanish and Russian)
- A spacious and comfortable room with a walk-in closet, private bathroom, and toilet
- The use of car (available during the week) for you to explore the area, as long as you have a valid driver’s license, of course🙃
Your daily tasks:
- Walking the dogs (in the morning or evening when the heat is less intense)
- Watering the garden plants and trees (at sunset)
- Sweeping the terrace
- Cleaning the pool filters and using the net to remove debris
Duration:
I can host you for a maximum period of 2 months between August 1st and September 30th 2025. If you can stay the 2 months that's a plus.
If you're ready to embark on a peaceful adventure and become a cherished member of the family, I would love to hear from you ! Reach out to me to discuss the details.
If you have any questions about accommodation, the tasks requested or any other subject, do not hesitate to contact me I will respond quickly.
See you soon ! 🌺🐾🍇☀️

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I will be delighted to practice speaking with you in one of the languages that I love so much and if you are here to learn French or Italian I will be happy to teach you.
I am a very active person and I never sit idle. I am of Italian origin and I worked in the restaurant business so cooking is a religion for me, I hope you like Mediterranean gastronomy. 😉
Help
I am in search of a curious and compassionate individual to join me as a helping hand. Your main tasks will include taking delightful strolls with our two adorable canine companions and tending to the lush garden brimming with vibrant blooms. I also need help cleaning the pool and some small daily tasks that require good physical condition (You don't have to be The Rock either LOL). On the other hand you need to have a driving license and if you have your own vehicle it's a plus so you can go wandering around our magnificent region. Otherwise, I can lend you my car from time to time.
No prior experience is necessary, all I ask for is your enthusiasm and love for animals and nature. Whether you're an avid gardener or a dog enthusiast, this opportunity promises enriching experiences and cherished memories amidst the beauty of Southern France.
For the chores part, I think that 2 to 3 hours per day will be enough for the tasks that I ask of you, the rest of the time you will be free to do what you want. 🕊️

The house is equipped with fiber wifi and air conditioning which is very pleasant in summer. You will have a large bedroom with king size bed, private bathroom and toilet. The house is surrounded by pine trees and terraces typical of Provence. Indulge in leisurely evenings by the poolside, soaking in the mesmerizing views of the vineyards under the starlit sky. 🌟🌛
What else ...
I have been living in this magnificent Var region for 4 years now and more precisely in “Green Provence”. It is a magnificent area very rich in natural heritage where the climate is warm all year round. Walks can be done in all directions and in complete tranquility. I love going for brisk walks with my dogs in the vineyards and hills in the late afternoon.
The Argens river flows 10 minutes walk from the house, it is a very peaceful spot to relax and read a book for example.
I live 15 minutes by car from the nearest village where there are a few shops, a very pretty Abbey and buses to explore the region.
You will be 30 minutes by car from the nearest town Brignoles, approximately 1 hour from Toulon and Saint-Tropez and 1h30 from Marseille.
The advantage of being so isolated is that you are never disturbed by neighbors and even less by traffic (the roads here are country roads). You will be awakened by the songs of birds and cicadas. 🌅
The downside is that it is mandatory to be able to drive.
