Air-Conditioned Cottage With Pool in Vence.

This beautiful cottage, situated within the grounds of a villa overlooking its garden and pool is 5 minutes walk to the town of Vence and 10 minutes walk to the historic old city with its cafes, restaurants, markets and culture.

It is 25 minutes drive from Nice airport and ideally situated for easy access to the whole cote d'azur from Monaco to St Tropez and back to mountains and ski resorts and within easy reach of beaches, golf, walking paths etc.

It is detached, self-contained and air-conditioned and has a downstairs living area, with sky TV and DVD, a well equipped kitchen including washing machine, oven, microwave etc., and a shower room with toilet, all newly decorated and finished to a high standard.Upstairs is a spacious mezzanine bedroom with a double bed.

Towels, beach towels, bed linen are all included, also most other things you might need eg tennis racquets, golf clubs, beach gear etc - just ask.

The cottage has private parking right outside the door. It is south facing, with French doors opening onto a mature garden with olive trees, traditional and gas barbeques, and pergola dining area. The pool is salt water and measures 8 metres by 4 metres, and is shared only occasionally by the owners.

In winter it is well heated and a good centre for skiing (the nearest resort 40 mins), hiking, Nice Carnival etc., and 5 mins walk to the regular bus services to Nice, which cost just 1.50 Euro.

Strictly no smoking inside, and unfortunately we cannot accept children or pets.

Lovely property and excellent host
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Immaculately kept property, lovely well kept gardens and swimming pool. Every detail has been thought of and catered for. Richard is an excellent host and nothing is too much trouble. He was most helpful during our 4 night stay. Location is very good for the town, restaurants and local buses. Would thoroughly recommend a stay here.

Lovliest home and village!
If you visit the area, youll not find a more amazing and beautiful home. We fell in love with the house and the community. Right out side our door were cafes and restaurants, a farmers market with wonderful foods and vendors. We will likely make it a special trip to return.

Charming hosts and great location
This is our 3rd visit to Anne and Richard's lovely cottage and there will be a fourth next year. As ever Anne and Richard are charming, discreet and attentive hosts and the cottage is a delight ideally situated for the village and exploring the area. The cottage is perfectly presented and has everything needed.

I enjoyed a very comfortable stay at the gîte. Richard was a great host, very welcoming and eager to offer help and advice. The property was very well equipped and the pool and garden were fantastic. I would highly recommend this property. Vence is a good base for exploring the area.

Comfortable gîte in scenic town
Richard's gîte is a very comfortable, functional space in the scenic and interesting town of Vence. I was happy to be away from the noise and busy-ness of the coast, and appreciated the close proximity to shops and the town centre. Also appreciated the secure car parking, laundry facilities, and quiest neighbourhood. A great location from which to base cycling excursions. Finally, I was grateful for Richard's careful attentiveness as a host. Thanks Richard!

A very relaxing stay in Vence
Thank you to Anne and Richard for a very relaxing stay in the town of Vence. The chalet was equipped with everything you could wish for. The aircon in the bedroom was a real bonus and made the hot summer nights comfortable for sleeping. A short walk into town for shops and restaurants makes the car redundant. All in all a wonderful relaxing break and we hope to return in the future.

Our Impression of Vence
Situated in walking distance of medieval Vence and easy driving distance to see the mountain villages inhabited in the past by Picasso, Matisse, Chagall and others. Our favourite Mediterranean visit was to Menton one hours drive from the property. The pool and garden a luxury. Mosquitos a pest in Sept/Oct. Otherwise a great place to stay including off street parking. Thank you Richard.

Just the ticket for a relaxing break
Communication with host Richard was great from the start. Our flight out was delayed and it was touch and go whether we would be in time to pick up our hire car. Richard offered to come to Nice airport and collect us if necessary. Immediately took away worry and concern. This theme continued throughout our short stay. The gite is small but plenty room for two with all the equipment and facilities you may require. Our host left us to make use of the terrace and the pool but was available if needed. We wanted away from the busy coast but with easy access and Vence was the perfect location. The old part of Vence is lovely to explore with lots of restaurants. Plenty to see in the surrounding area and we enjoyed a few walks. Recommended for two staying.

THE PERFECT HOLIDAY
We stayed about three weeks at Anne‘s and Richard‘s place and when the vacation was over we nearly refused to leave. The place is gorgeous and quiet and the neighborhood is calm. Anne and Richard were very nice, friendly and helpful but also discreet. They made us feel at home and gave us more space we would ever have expected. The location is ideal. Like a peaceful and quiet resort right next to the huge playground which the Côte d‘Azur of course is. The rental property is lovingly furnished and at the same time functional and very well maintained and clean. Vence city center is within easy walking distance, a well stocked supermarket is right around the next corner. Long story short: we highly recommend this location! Dear Anne and Richard, thanks again for having us. We enjoyed our stay to the fullest!!!

The most beautiful gite in Cote D’Azure, Provence!!
We were excited to come to this beautiful gite but never really imagined just how lovely, quaint and relaxing Richard’s place would be! It is luxuriously appointed, so beautifully decorated and was a joy to make this our home for a few days. We went out each day exploring, we walked to Vence each day and took the bus to St Paul de Vence (highly recommend) and picked up meat, cheese, foods from various shops, cooked each evening and played board games on the terrace by the pool. Richard was about to chat & ask questions if needed. We also didn’t have a car and managed perfect taking the bus /train from Villefranche. We have stayed in lots of beautiful places during our travels and Richard’s beautiful property and gite is now TOPS on our list. Book it now. Thank you Richard for sharing your beautiful property/gite with us.

Attention to detail.
That’s what Richard and this cottage is all about. Everything, and I mean everything, is as we see in the photos. What we can’t see in the photos is the quality of the bed linens. The stairs to the bedroom could be difficult for some, but I’m 80 years old and managed fine. The garden is drop dead gorgeous. Richard is the perfect host. He went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The old section of Vence is a legitimate 15-minute walk. There are two supermarkets about a 10-minute walk, although the first 150 meters is very steep.. Vence has everything one would expect to find in a classic French town. Boulangerie, patisserie, specialty cheese, wine, charcuterie and butcher shops. If you don’t have a great time, it’ll be your fault.

Just great!
The holiday home is situated on a large plot in the middle of Vence. Shopping facilities and restaurants in the old town are within walking distance. The small cottage is super equipped, lovingly furnished and offers every comfort you could wish for. Especially the air conditioning is a blessing in high summer. The garden with the beautiful pool and the pergola is also a dream: very spacious and well-kept. We enjoyed sitting there and reading, with a view of flowers and palm trees. The house is also a very good starting point for excursions to Nice, Antibes, Cannes or Grasse. And after returning, we could park our car in our own garage. Also on the property is the house of the owner and host Richard. The communication before our arrival went smoothly and the welcome was very warm. Also during our entire stay, Richard was there for us - whenever we needed it - with help and advice. Thank you very much for this great holiday, Richard! We can highly recommend a stay with you in Vence to everyone.

Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at Richards. He was very helpful with local info.and marked out a couple of trips on the map into the Alps.

Wonderful vacation in a lovely place
We have just spent 2 wonderful weeks in Richard's lovely annex, and we only have praise for the stay. The annex is the perfect size for 2 adults. The annex is positioned a bit in the shade, which means it doesn't get too hot, or at least it cools down quickly. We were there for 2 weeks in July with around 30˚C every day. Often, it was enough to create circulation by opening 2 small windows (equipped with mosquito nets) to keep it cool at night. Otherwise, it was possible to turn on the air conditioning. Everything in the annex is chosen with a loving hand, from furniture and interior to the bed and bed linen, which are of the highest quality. The pool area was lovely and the garden was truly beautiful. We had most of our meals on the lovely terrace where we could seek shade under the pavilion. We spent many pleasant moments there eating, reading, playing cards, and just enjoying the special French nature and atmosphere that we value so much. If we didn't choose to cook ourselves, we went down to the town, where there are plenty of restaurants, cafes, and bars, often with live music. As a host, Richard is discreet but extremely friendly and helpful. It is very clear that he loves his beautiful place and takes good care of it. We definitely want to come back another time.

Perfect stay!
We had a perfect stay at this residence due to the great location and owner Richard. Not only was everything clean and tidy, he's also a perfect host helping you with ordinary things, but also giving touristical tips and tricks for the neighbourhood. This combined with discretion when needed. Thanks Richard!!
