Paradise in Provence- A Quiet Retreat (3BR) with Pool, Terrace, Barbecue, Garden

The property is located approximately 7 minutes to Tourrettes-sur-Loup, a charming medieval village that sits between the sea (about 14 kilometres away) and the Alpes Maritime. Take a look at the property in summer using the video link on this page.

The ground level of the house (the upper level is unoccupied during rentals) and guest cottage has 3 bedrooms, 3 1/2 baths. It is ideal for 3 couples but there are 3 extra day beds. A playpen and high chair is also available for babies. There is a full kitchen as well as a small kitchenette in the separate guest cottage. The property is south facing with a beautiful 13 meter swimming pool, gets sun throughout the day, and is still bright in the long summer evenings. The pool is open from June through September.

This is a very comfortable campus for friends and family. The stone wall terraced garden has olive, orange, lemon, mandarin, apricot, cherry, and fig trees. Imagine eating on the outdoor terrace in the evening in the midst of the many rosemary and lavender bushes that dot the property. There are also many places to get away to read or just sit and relax.

Long summer evenings with a southern exposure, a beautiful swimming pool, and plenty of room on the property to wander.

The views are spectacular! There is even a petanque court shaded by two mulberry trees. This is a house that has become a favorite destination for many friends and family and there have been many repeat visitors.

It was like Paradise in Provence😎
Our stay was nothing short of magical in what truly felt like the best place on Earth. We were fortunate to find a beautiful house that had everything we needed and more. The pool was perfect and became our daily retreat. Our group consisted of three adults and three teenagers (18, 17, and 17), and the space was ideal for both relaxation and fun. The peaceful surroundings were a delight, with a baby deer occasionally visiting the breathtaking garden filled with vibrant flowers. Parking was a breeze, with ample space for our two cars behind secure gates. The owner was always on hand and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend this slice of "heaven on earth" in France. It was a trip we'll always treasure! 😍

ODE TO VILLA LA COMBE AU LOUP
The color and bustle of a small medieval French village on marketplace morning—fresh fish and flowers, art and antiques, the artists’ town of Tourettes sur Loup quickly became our favorite. Perched among flowering fruit trees with the scent of clear fresh mountain air, looking out to sea… All of this was ours at Villa “La Combe au Loup” As we gathered at this beautiful villa after the end of a day of visiting magnificent art museums and seaside restaurants, it was always the best part of the day. Villa La Combe au Loup, what a perfect place to spend a birthday or in the case of our visiting friends—a honeymoon! Each time we return is a special occasion. Bonnie and Arlie Washington, DC

Great villa in a great location
Just stayed eight nights. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful. The house offers all you need including very good beds. Good size pool and a very cozy patio. The garden are magnificent with several levels and places to sit and relax. No matter how warm it gets, you will always find a chilly spot in the shadow. Property manger okay. Friendly and on time. The owner, Kevin, is very helpful and answer your questions / request more or less immediately – and very informative. Highly appreciated, and at a level we never have experienced the thirty years we have been renting houses in Europe. The location is simply ideal for exploring the Côte d'Azur. We can only highly recommend this villa, La Combe au Loup.

Perfect place to stay with a family
We stayed with 4 adults and 2 kids and had a wonderful time. It is a perfect place to stay with kids as the garden is really huge (even bigger as it seems in the pictures) and has a lot of level lawn area to play on. Much attention to detail such as petanque field shaded by mulberry trees which can be illuminated in the evening or a very cosy outside dining area with an outdoor kitchen style gas grill. Pool has a great size as well. Everything was very well maintained. The inside area of the house provided everything we needed during our stay such as a well equipped kitchen, although the outdoor space is clearly what makes it an exceptional place to stay. The location is super quiet, especially in the evening and at night. It is slightly a bit of a longer drive to bigger supermarkets or restaurants (about 15 mins) as you have to get out of the valley first, but it did not bother us at all. Communication with the owner and the property manager was professional and very smooth, same for check-in and check-out. We really enjoyed the stay and would love to come back a second time!

Wonderful location
We had a great stay in the villa, which had a fantastic garden and swimmingpool. My favorite way to start the Day, was with a cup of coffee with my book sitting amongst the olive trees. Swimmingpool was large and perfect for our Family. The location close to the town was great.

Nous avons passé une très belle semaine.
Le jardin, surtout, est magnifique, spacieux, très fleuri et arboré. Nous avons apprécié la piscine, bien-sûr, mais aussi le terrain de boules, la terrasse ombragée. La maison, elle même, est agréable. Dommage que 2 des couchages soient dans un passage et non dans une chambre séparée. La maisonnette avec sa chambre et sa salle de bains est très appréciable.

Lovely House
Looking for 3 BR/3 BA?? Hard to find on Cote d"Azure. This property has it plus pool and acgive front gate. Entrance road is a little challenging but practice makes it easy. This is the First Floor of a 2 story house plus complete pool house. Worked well for 3 adult couples. You will fall in love with Tourrette-sur-Loup.

Magnifique jardin et piscine
Le jardin et la piscine sont magnifiques et très bien entretenus. La maison est parfaite mais plutôt adaptée pour 6 personnes que pour 9. Il y a trois chambres avec lit double et chacune leur salle de bain, ce qui est parfait. Les deux lits simples sont dans une pièce de passage entre la salle à manger et une chambre et ce n’est pas très pratique et il y a un lit simple dans la salle à manger. La gestion de la maison est très bien assurée et Eva a répondu à toutes nos demandes, merci ! Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.

Wonderful Place
We have stayed here two years in a row and find it magical. The grounds are really special with various fruit trees and levels and a boule court... and the outdoor covered area is a perfect place to hang out and grill or just have some wine.. The pool is perfect and it will be hard to leave as it’s great to just hang out. The local villages are just a few minutes away by car. You do need a car to stay here I believe but the hikes surrounding the house are great and my son has fun picking the blackberries off the numerous bushes. Tourettes and Vence are nearby and offer fun. The owner of the house has always been super friendly and helpful and the couple he has taking care of the house, Adam and Julia, are truly lovely people who can be over in ten minutes if you have any issues. Overall I’d say it’s an idyllic place for a family if you want to get away to these parts, which I find quite amazing. Great vibes, a beautifully planted piece of property, and overall a special place.

Belle maison très fonctionnelle
Belle maison où il fait bon vivre autour de la piscine. Il ne manque rien, la maison est très fonctionnelle. Tout est pensé pour passer de bonnes vacances relaxantes autour de la piscine et sur la terrasse où le coin salon/repas/barbecue permet de profiter de bons moments tous ensemble. les extérieurs sont très bien entretenus, l'environnement est calme. Nous étions une famille de six personnes dont trois ados et un enfant de 8 ans et l'agencement des chambres permettait à chacun d'avoir son propre espace. Nous avons bien apprécié le studio indépendant. L'accueil des gardiens est très sympathique, ils sont soucieux du bien-être des vacanciers. Tous les commerces de proximité (boulangerie, boucherie, primeur, supérette) se trouvent à Tourettes sur Loup, très joli village à 7km. Nous recommandons cette location.

Best vacation ever - really!
This home has terrific amenities: Great kitchen, spacious and private back yard with large pool, large bedroom with incredible main bathroom, and situated in unbelievable, scenic location. Less than an hour from Nice, Cannes, Monaco, Antibbes, Vence (St Paul's). And about an hour to the Italian border (we did a side trip to Portofino, Italy - about 3 hour drive - fabulous). And the local town of Tourettes sur Loop has it's own history and charm - worth at least a day to explore. We'll be back.

Mesmerizing French Countryside
My girlfriend and I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Paradise in Provence. The house and estate made us feel at home in the hear of Provence. The home is extremely well-kept, exuding with French charm! We really enjoyed day trips to varying towns in the nearby area in addition to lazy days by the pool. We 100% recommend this home- it had everything we could have wanted. The property even comes with tons of information about neighboring towns and places to see!

A Perfect Summer Idyll
A wonderful summer holiday property. The pool is a great size and focus for the outdoor living we were able to enjoy for 2 whole weeks. Most food was cooked on the BBQ and all meals were eaten outside! This is an obviously well loved, well used home and holiday house. So, it is well equipped for living and holidaying -good cooking equipment, great library and things like CD's, outdoor furniture and a Petanque set. The garden was a big attraction -there's a regular gardener, so it is cared for and watered. We loved the bed of plentiful herbs for cooking and the productive orchard supplying fruit for jam and poaching. The shady petanque court under the stunning mulberries was a delight for some drinks' time fun! I was a bit worried the house would be too small and too hot! But the bedrooms are in the coolest parts and there are good spaces for the day beds. There were 7 of us - for 6, it is perfect, but the extra beds will work well for families. We loved our time at the house. The only draw back is the roads -particularly the laneway in from the main road. It is narrow and steep and with an unfamiliar, manual hire car -a little testing when meeting oncoming traffic! But then -this helps keep the area a special, peaceful corner of the Cote d'Azur! One special discovery was a farm at the bottom of the hill by the river, selling local produce on Sat mornings and Wed afternoons. Our favourite local restaurant was Auberge des Gorges du Loup.
