Striking stone villa set in beautiful gardens with panoramic views across the Baie des Anges and Alpes-Maritimes. This beautiful, Provencal family villa in the hills above Vence has air-conditioning, a heated pool and wonderful covered terraces with beautiful sea views; everything you could possibly want for a calm and relaxing holiday on the French Riviera.
Furnished in a timeless, classic style, it is private but not isolated; you are only a 5 minute drive from the lovely town of Vence offering shady squares, tree-lined avenues, cafes and restaurants.
Nearby St Paul de Vence is renowned for the narrow cobbled streets and art galleries of the Cercle des Artistes. For an altogether more modern experience head to Cagnes-sur-Mer and the Polygone Riviera Centre where you can marvel at the avant-garde architecture and perhaps take in a French film. The nearest beach is at Villeneuve-Loubet, where you will also find a modern Marina lined with small shops and restaurants. Further afield, Antibes, Cannes, Cap Ferrat and the Cap d’Ail near Monaco each offer a different taste of the French Riviera, from medieval ramparts and narrow cobbled streets to art-deco buildings and wide, palm tree-lined avenues. All enjoy a unique place along the Azur blue Mediterranean seashore and all offer a taste of French joie-de-vivre.
“I'd recommend this villa for anybody who likes a calm environment, but does not want to be isolated. The gardens are beautiful and the sea views magnificent. For an unforgettable experience I'd suggest you try the Chateau St Martin restaurant which is only a short way from the villa. In the old part of Vence there are lovely boutiques and art galleries and Les Nuits du Sud music festival is held each summer.”

We have just spent a lovely week at this villa. The house is very comfortable, with everything you could need. The pool is an excellent size and gorgeous temperature! The views are wonderful. And there is plenty to do nearby. Though, to be honest we found it hard to tear ourselves away from the house and garden.
