Villa Belle Olivia

Say hello to Monica and Fredrik, the house owners of Villa Belle Olivia.

When they first saw the french bastide in Le Val, the green Provence, they were sold and so was the house. The villa had everything they were looking for, and they moved in to the villa in the start of 2024.

Monica and Fredrik, from Sweden, sold everything they had and moved to Provence in 2017, and never regret the choice to move to warmer climate, more sunny days and delicious french food. And hey… let’s not forget to introduce Sebastian, their dog, adopted from the animal shelter in Flayosc. He is a french Barbet, you will always find him by their side.

Monica and Fredrik has long experience of renting out vacation homes and bed & breakfast, both in Sweden and France. Now they want to share the authentic villa as a vacation home during the summer season.
