Exceptional home from home
We were blown away by the beauty of this lovely home - it is in no way your average holiday home, but a much loved property that Jean-Luc and his family continue to devote love and care to. Indoors the quality of the decor is fantastic and it is full of beautiful and unusual pieces of art. The views are spectacular and the pool is larger than we expected - we plenty of space for 2 adults and 3 teens to enjoy themselves. Nice and deep to be able to
bomb into! There are multiple areas to relax in - 6 sun beds, deckchairs, outside settees etc, so we weren’t all on top of each other. We loved having BBQs (gas) in the outdoor kitchen - In fact didn’t eat inside at all although the kitchen is lovely and large enough to. We had fun using the fondue and waffle machines too!
It is a steep driveway to the house, but this is the same for most properties in the area. It means that you feel incredibly private. The lovely owners live next door and pop in to water the plants before we got up in a morning but other than that left us to ourselves. Throughout the week however they left us gifts of homemade wine, bread and marmalade, roses and homegrown tomatoes. We felt like special guests. We were also provided with free tickets to an Adventure Climbing Park nearby (a family business), similar to Go Ape, which we spent a day at (picnic required and trainers- highly recommended). The walk into the town centre and Boulangerie is only about 15 min - but be aware of the hills - you feel you’ve earned your breakfast! Having trips to Cannes and Monaco were also lovely, but we loved coming a back to the tranquility of Grasse. A wonderful week!!
