Hello, I am the middle girl of our family, together with my brother, sister and father we built Villa Pöle as a family house, on the shores of Lake Balaton. We all have great memories of our holidays in Hungary: swimming, cycling and having fun with our friends in the Hungarian sun. Now adults, our children collect the same kinds of memories again. Holiday homes have now been added to our collection in France, Germany and the Netherlands.

Additional information

The modest village of Rians is located in a rolling Provencal hilly landscape at the very tip of the Var where four departments cross: Bouches du Rhone, the Vaucluse, the Alpes de Haute-Provence and the Var. This lovely region has hardly been discovered by tourism. Villages in a picturesque location, squashed against a hill, which is called Villages Perchés. There is even a route along these traditionally built mountain villages in Provence. The characteristic houses, the old cozy village center with a central square and fountain, the narrow criss-crossed narrow alleys revive the time of days gone by. Rians, small but nice, with all necessary facilities, several hot bakers, supermarkets, gas station, gym, swimming pool, church, local events such as multi-colored exhibitions and the annual pumpkin market.

High above Rians, the imposing church towers on the ground that has been home to a house of God since 1092. Since then, the church has been enlarged three times, most recently in the 19th century, even making a residential neighborhood sacrificed for it, making the road to it more accessible! The 18 stained glass windows provide a diffused light and the main altar is decorated with beautiful carvings made of walnut. The 7 side altars are made of marble. The beautiful walnut statue of Maria van Nazareth from 1340 was miserably stolen in 1999, but replaced by an oak copy made by monks from Bethlehem. The impressive entrance doors are made of Russian oak. Worth seeing is the old city gate, the numerous fountains and the oratoires - simple praying sites of yesteryear - that surround the village. Olives, melons, sunflowers and pumpkins, the crops that traditionally belong in Provence, are well represented and provide the varied landscape around us. Do you want to know more? The tourist office, where you can get extensive information, is located in a 15th century grain warehouse in the middle of the village.

You certainly will not return home without a beautiful Provencal wine.

Aix en Provence This lively student city, very popular with the French, is the city of Cezanne and is half an hour away. (A Dutch-speaking Frenchman works at the Office de Tourisme) Every day there is a Provencal market on the beautiful square in front of the Hotel de Ville in the historic center. The nearby busy shopping streets contain many chic boutiques. Almost all of them lead to the most beautiful boulevard in Provence: the Cours Mirabeau. Take a terrace and enjoy the plane trees, fountains and beautiful houses across the street that still carry the grandeur of yore. Visit the Musee Granet or the Cezanne Workshop.
