Insider Tips

“

The situation of this villa is absolutely fantastic; fully south facing pool in a highly sought after residential area of Grasse from which you can easily walk to the town centre for shops, restaurants and all the amenities. You will enjoy walking to the local boulangerie to buy some croissants and baguettes for your morning breakfast. In a few minutes you can also reach Place aux Aires for a nice lunch or evening meal in one of the restaurants. All this just a stone's throw away from your lovely private pool and Mediterranean garden with sea views!
