An elegant luxury villa that sleeps up to 16 guests across two Provençal-style houses. Set within extensive landscaped gardens, with two private swimming pools, this splendid property is walking distance from the French Riviera town of St-Paul-de-Vence.

Maison de Vence is only a 25 minute drive from Nice Cote d’Azur Airport and 15 minutes from the train station at Cagnes sur Mer. Your rural retreat sits on nearly a hectare of private land, with panoramic views of the Cote d’Azur. Secluded but not remote, the villa is just 2km from St-Paul-de-Vence, which can be reached on foot. This fairy-tale medieval village is one of the oldest in the south of France, steeped in history and filled art; don’t miss the wealth of Modern paintings, ceramics and sculpture at The Maeght Foundation. Further afield, there are plenty of attractions within day-tripping distance, including the charming market towns of Vence and Valbonne and the glamorous harbour of Antibes. For golfers, the nearest course is at Opio (17km) and for those wanting to hit the beach, the Cagnes sur Mer is 15km away.

This beautifully designed villa is perfect for entertaining family and friends. There are two fully equipped kitchens: one with a dining area, which opens on to a spectacular dining terrace with a fireplace and barbeque, and one which services the large dining room. There are various outdoor dining and living spaces on the terrace, plus a pool house with its own bar, as well as a sumptuous drawing room and a cool cinema room. There are six double bedrooms and two double/twin bedrooms, all charmingly presented and with ensuite bathrooms.

At Maison de Vence, your comfort is key. The property is air-conditioned throughout, with underfloor heating on the terraces and in the pool house. There is a maid service six days a week and a chef to showcase the very best of the local cuisine.

Ideal for large group holidays, this spacious property is packed with character and fabulous features. Explore the towns, beaches and countryside of the Cote d’Azur, or relax in your private haven and take in the breath-taking views.
