Situated in the hills above the medieval market town of Lodève, Villa les Mimosas is a luxurious architect-designed villa with magnificent, uninterrupted 180-degree views over the town and to the beautiful hills beyond.

The pool and entertaining areas and two of the bedrooms share the glorious views across the valley to the mountains, with little villages dotted here and there in the distance. In the evening the floodlit spires of the Cathedral of Lodève, surrounded by the town lights, makes a spectacular vista.
The large sitting area is comfortably furnished with sofas and armchairs; the soaring ceiling has magnificent beams.
