Relaxing week in the foothills of the Alps.
We received an extremely warm welcome from Jean-Louis and Nicole to begin a memorable week in the foothills of the Alps. The studio is a 5 minute walk to Saint Vallier where there are bars, restaurants and a weekly market. It is also within walking distance of an Intermarché (with a petrol station) which we found very convenient.
The studio itself seems bigger on the inside than outside as the space has been used intelligently. It is clean, well-equipped has a comfortable bed and air-conditioning. Outside there is plenty of room to sunbathe but a canapé and large parasol provide ample shade if, like me, you struggle a bit in temperatures over 30! I have happy memories sitting around the pool sipping a cold beer and reading L'Equipe with the mountains providing a spectacular backdrop!
Grasse is a 15 minute drive away. We spent a day there and also used the station there (free car park) to catch a train to Nice (10 euros return/1hr each way). For beach lovers it stops at Cannes, Antibes and Juan-les-Pins on the way and after Nice goes on to Monaco.
I would wholeheartedly recommend this property. The week there reminded me why I love France so much!
