Well Located Luxury Villa with Pool and Stunning Sea Views

A charming 150 year old villa, totally refurbished in a modern elegant style. This extremely spacious accommodation is light and airy for 10 people with facilities to match. Located within a short walk of an unspoilt medieval village. It has a shaded barbecue and patio area, pool, gardens and outstanding views of the coast and sea stretching from Nice to the Estoril.  This is a STAR choice according to our customers!  Ideal for family gatherings and reunions for friends from all over the world and so convenient to the village!

Located where the Alps meet the Mediterranean with views of both and only a short drive from Nice airport.

The Villa is situated within a flat five minute walk along a mainly pedestrian road of Tourrettes sur Loup. Tourrettes, (cite des violets), is a medieval village perched on rock with dramatic views of the countryside down to the sea. There are shops, galleries, bars and restaurants as well as butchers, greengrocers and a bakery which is a 7 minutes walk. Tourism has not submerged the local character of the village and the square bustles with activity including almost continuous boules games and the ‘clink’ of glasses at lunchtime at the wine bar and cafes..

For those that prefer to forget their cars for the holiday the location is ideal being within walking distance of all the facilities of the village. On the other hand Vence is only 7kms away and has the facilities of a thriving town together with excellent restaurants, convenient parking, and two good supermarkets.

Nice airport is a quick and easy 18 kms; beaches are within 14 kms: golf at 15, 20 and 22kms, riding at 3 kms, and tennis courts within 500 metres. Excellent ski resorts are 40 kms on good roads.
