Villa Tamerza is owned by Richard and Paul, the owners of Maryland Group Ltd, a group of companies involved in the travel industry. The villa is operated as a personal chalet but the association with Maryland Group and its affiliated tour operator, Destination Store Limited*, allows us to offer a tour operator-style booking process including credit card acceptance.
"...We bought Villa Tamerza in 2013, having been attracted to the stunning scenery and relaxing lifestyle of this beautiful area. We and our families are all huge Francophiles and have spent a lot of time in France over the years. We spent the early part of the year undertaking extensive refurbishments at the chalet and have redecorated and renovated the entire interior. There are now also three new fully re-fitted bath/shower rooms and we have created a games room in the basement with a table tennis table. The pool area has had a complete makeover and the drive has been re-surfaced. We love spending time at the villa and are sure that our guests will enjoy its comforts in such beautiful surroundings..."
