About the Experience
Enjoy the true character of Provence with this comfortable French villa rental, perfect for those who love to relax outdoors. With a swimming pool shaded by olive trees and a house where every room leads outside, you'll be immersed in the beauty of the French countryside. You'll also enjoy taking meals outdoors at this vacation villa on the French Riviera, made easy with your own barbeque. Reserve at least a few days for exploring the area, as there are many interesting towns and cities nearby, as well as the Cote d'Azur. We particularly recommend taking a leisurely morning walk into the nearest village, where you can pick up fresh pastries and watch the town come to life.
Location
With the village of Speracedes within walking distance, this villa in Provence is perfectly situated for both walking and taking day trips in the car. The village itself is very charming, with a few restaurants and a church—peaceful and removed from the noise of any freeways or larger towns. It is a place of authentic charm set against magnificent natural beauty. Nearby you can visit a number of prehistoric caves, or take a look at the Oppidum oil mill, which has a water wheel 11 meters in diameter! Other neighboring villages are Le Tignet, Cabris, and Peymeinade. Peymeinade offers various musical and theatre events as well as regular antique fairs and markets. At St. Cassien Lake you can enjoy all sorts of water sports, and if you can satisfy your craving for the beach at Cannes la Bocca.

    Overall:
    It was fantastic. We had a great time. The house accommodated our party of 6 very nicely.
    Enjoyed Most:
    We enjoyed everything about the house. It was thoughtfully supplied with cooking basics and paper supplies to get you started. There were towels for the pool. The owners were so welcoming.
    Unpleasant Surprises:
    Nothing.
    Surrounding Area:
    For our group it provided a central point for adventure and travel experiences. We ventured to the Val du Gordon, a long day trip take your swim suits for a a dip in the lake. We visited Nice and Antibes and the Estrelle for our Mediterranean experiences. We toured a perfume factory in Grasse, and the caves of St Cezzare ( a great village for a meal or wander.
    Nearby Events or Locales:
    Sparacedes and Val de Tigney
    Tips or Restaurants:
    No bad food in France! It is just not allowed. We went out to lunch everyday but only occasionally at dinner out. We usually enjoyed good food and views and conversation from the patio around 10pm. Next time I would take my Razor cell phone and pay to have it "unlocked" for 10 E at a store and buy a sim card. Phone cards work very well for calling home but if you need to be in contact with all in your group (we had two cars) a cell phone is so handy. I was glad that I had brought Euros and didn't have to keep running to the ATM.
    Directions:
    This property is a little remote for the timid driver but once you've done it once, you are fine.

    Overall:
    We truly loved the property and do not feel that anything needs to be embellished.
    Enjoyed Most:
    The quiet and serene nature of the property along with the view allowed us to spend quality time on the property with our family and enjoy the true nature of what Provence is all about.
    Surrounding Area:
    We took day trips in the surrounding area and were able to walk to various places in the village where we could buy our meat and bread. The owners of the property were most gracious and gave us a sense that we were truly at home, rather than just renting a property.
    Nearby Events or Locales:
    Speracedes is a magical village and offered all that we wanted in terms of food and restaurants.
    Tips or Restaurants:
    The restaurant at the Hotel in Speracedes is a true find and extremely well priced along with being at the top of all the places that we ate in Provence.
