My wife stated this was the best place we have rented over the years. The property was gorgeous, the pool was refreshing, the car garage safe, and the host readily available to make our stay even better. The village of Vence is charming and quiet compared to busy Nice. This place is a gem.

The host is excellent and the cottage is sublime

A lovely cottage with beautiful grounds including a sparkling pool. Parking available in a garage on the property. Great location for exploring nearby hill top villages and a trip to Monaco by train. Close to bus stop to catch free bus into town center. Charming and helpful host, Richard. Highly recommend!

Onboarding was very kind, some direct e-Mails back and forth gave us all the info we needed. When we got there we had a very warm welcome at the owner´s house, drinks and food, some nice tips for things to do - much appreciated. As for the Place itself, there are pros and cons: The Garden is wonderful kept, you have a nice, unheated pool entirely to yourself, a wonderful terrace with a big grill, pretty quiet. The House is described as free-standing, that may be technically correct, in fact it is a tiny building literally in the shadow of the main house. Space is pretty limited, you have a double bed upstairs, where the pitch of the roof can be a bit of a challenge. To get up and down you need to be agile, stairs are narrow and kind of steep. Downstairs there is a small bathroom where you have the toilet standing in the middle of the room, no separation from anything - every time you use the shower, everything else gets somewhat wet, unavoidable. You can´t ventilate much as there are no windows, a little built-in fan does not do much. The kitchen is well equipped, however we were offered to use another washing machine in the garage (which we didn´t). It´s all one small room with the kitchen directly beneath the bathroom door, then a small table, a sofa and an armchair; doors lead directly outside where your car is parked. It can´t get very bright in there as the building is not really „free standing“. To get in by car can be difficult, the gate is pretty narrow and a bit tricky to pass. The cleanliness - in our humble opinion - might be debatable, for us it did not work out - depends of what you are used to or willing to accept. Bottom line: If you stay outside and the weather is fine, maybe the place will suffice, for us it felt a little bit like camping, especially the bathroom situation. We left after after four nights and spent the rest of the holiday at a hotel. Again - very nice people, not their fault, just not what we expected.
