We stayed at La Bergerie for 11 nights at the end of August. Edwina and Xavier are such warm and welcoming hosts, and gave us a great tour of the house before leaving us to enjoy a well earned break.
This is a stunning property in a quiet area up in the hills, with amazing spaces both indoors and outdoors.
The ground floor has a living room, a dining room and a large kitchen. The first floor has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. On the lower ground floor there are two separate bedrooms (accessed from the outside). This setup was ideal for us, as the house didn't feel too big (there were only two of us), but it still provides plenty of space for larger groups or families.
The interiors are really homely and very tastefully decorated and furnished. Everything is in perfect working order.
The outside spaces are to die for. The amazing terrace has panoramic views and plenty of space for dining and spending time. The pool area is set below the house in the garden, and has a separate dining area, WC/shower and plenty of decking areas. The pool itself is stunning, and a very good size.
The house is a short drive from Vallauris, with various shops etc. Golfe Juan is also nearby, and has good beaches and plenty of restaurants, cafes etc.
The other attractions of the riviera are all nearby, including Antibes, Juan Les Pins, Cannes, and lots of goregous hilltop villages like St Paul de Vence and Tourettes-sur-Loupe. A car is essential for staying here.
We had some issues with power cuts due to a huge storm, but these were resolved extremely quickly by Edwina.
All in all, this property can be very highly recommended for a relaxing holiday with family or friends in the heart of the bustling Cote d'Azur.
