About this property

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.

A slice of Provence heaven

We stayed 2 weeks in this lovely home from home just a short walk from the town centre. Accommodation perfect for the 2 of us. Beautiful garden and lovely pool to come back to after a day out. Thoroughly recommend it. We would definitely come back. Thank you Richard.

Stay in Vence

We had a good time, visiting, museums and chapels in the area and walking around Vence old town. It was very convenient to the old town area and restaurants. The major drawback was that the bathroom is. In the main floor cottage and the sleeping is in the loft upstairs

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!!

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.

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. Local town a ten minute stroll, with good selection of restaurants. Lovely pool , slightly on the chilly side due to weather and beware the mosquitoes. Graham and Val

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!

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 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.

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.

We highly recommend this lovely place

We had the most relaxing holiday in this delightful cottage. It has everything you need and is clean and comfortable. The art work is very interesting and there were flowers inside and in the beautiful garden. Richard, the host, will help with anything. We loved the pool and swam every day and our car enjoyed it’s own private garage! There is a shop very near for anything you need and many restaurants within walking distance. We highly recommend this lovely place.
