Maison Solaris

The villa

Maison Solaris is a beautifully restored former wine - maker’s home in the heart of Magalas. This traditional Languedoc village house exudes character, with colourful vintage tiles, original beams and sunny perched terraces that open onto captivating views of the surrounding countryside.

Inside, four ensuite bedrooms offer comfort and privacy for up to eight guests, blending southern French charm with thoughtful modern touches. Each space feels welcoming and personal, from the soft linen tones to the locally inspired décor. The open - plan living and dining room lead to the raised terrace, where al - fresco meals are framed by wide skies and beautiful vistas. 

Outside, the experience unfolds slowly and indulgently. The private pool, with its gently sloped paddling area for children, invites slow afternoons under the sun on the lower garden level. A delightful summer kitchen, complete with a bar, hob and dishwasher, makes al - fresco dining a social affair. Gather around the shaded table, pour a glass of chilled rosé and enjoy a meal prepared on one of the two Weber barbecues. Afterward, test your skills at boules, darts or table tennis, or simply sit back and take in the view. 

Maison Solaris sits just a one - minute stroll from the village centre of Magalas, where a café - bar, bakery and restaurant offer a taste of local life. A larger supermarket and wine cave on the village edge make stocking up effortless. The golden beaches of the Mediterranean are a short 30 - minute drive, while inland, scenic drives lead through vineyards and sleepy hamlets rich in Southern French charm.

Maison Solaris promises a relaxed and authentically French escape, where simple pleasures are savoured and time slows to the rhythm of the south.
