One of our best decision during our trip is picking this property. The house is spacious and has everything needed during our stay. The aircon was handy due to the heatwave when we were in France. It is situated in a lovely town with lovely restaurants and shops. Nice, Marseilles, Menton and other lovely towns are just an hour or so away. Lots of lovely local wineries too! Ryan is easy to communicate with. Will definitely be back.

25th Wedding Anniversary

My wife and I stayed here for 8 nights as we celebrated 25 years of marriage. The home is beautifully decorated with full accommodations for any needs. We only needed 1 or the 3 bedrooms! The home was clean and comfortable. Property manager was helpful and accessible. The village is quaint and inviting with several good places to eat. We spent our days on day trips and our evenings in La Garde-Freinet. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the French Riviera, and we still had more we could have done. A romantic and restful getaway to reflect on our marriage and look forward to more.Thank you Chez Messuraca!

Pas d'eau chaude

Cadre formidable. Maison bien équipée et propre. Malheureusement, nous n'avons pas eu d'eau chaude de tout notre séjour dans la cuisine et une des 2 salle de bain, pas pratique à 8 personnes de ce laver. Intendante prévenu dès le premier jour elle est venue constater et pas de nouvelle de la semaine ensuite. Vraiment dommage.

Klassisch französisch und zu empfehlen

Das Haus liegt zentral, der Ort bietet alles was man braucht. Das Haus ist rustikal und klassisch französisch und bietet alles was man als Familie braucht…nur eine Spülmaschine wäre toll gewesen. Wir haben bei den Sternen ein bisschen was abgezogen, weil bei uns der Duschkopf im Bad unten kaputt war, der Duschkopf oben im Bad auch semi-funktional und leider kein Internet vorhanden war. Kristina hat den Duschkopf im Bad unten dann ersetzen lassen, aber leider wurde in den zwei Wochen, die wir da waren die Internetverbindung nicht realisiert…da ich leider arbeiten musste war das ein Problem. Abgesehen davon empfehlen wir das Ferienhaus in jeder Hinsicht!

Lovely location, great house, stunning scenery

We were met by Jane who was very helpful and even gave us a little tour of the village so we had an idea of where to park and eat etc, this was much appreciated. The house is private and comfortable with a ‘ home from home’ feel to it. Nice bedding and towels with plentiful supply. The village is quaint and pretty and although it’s a bit of a drive down the big hill each time to reach the beaches and main towns, it was nice to come back there each day and escape the crowds and traffic which is heavy around the towns and beaches this time of year. Loved the area in general and will be back to explore more. St Tropez is something else and the beaches are beautiful, the sea a lovely temperature. Very happy with our choice of house and location: a great intro to the Provence area!

Agréable séjour à la Garde Freinet

Maison de ville décorée avec goût et idéalement située dans le village. Seuls petits bémols: - le forfait ménage à 150 USD indiqué comme optionnel mais en fait obligatoire (l'affichage devrait être corrigé sur le site), - l'absence de connexion internet, - l'absence de lave vaisselle, - le matelas de la chambre du bas (le plus grand lit) particulièrement mou.

So much fun!

I love this town and this home. Because you are right in the center of town, it feels almost like home. The home itself is perfectly outfitted for cooking and relaxing, but the town cafes and shops and the many wonderful places to visit in the wider area draw one out. After a day's outing, though, this is the place to come home to. I've been here several times and expect to come again . . .and again.

Charmant/gemütlich aber renovierungsbedürftig

Das Haus ist sehr zentral im Städtchen gelegen. Die Wohnbereiche erstrecken sich über drei Etagen. Im unteren Bereich ist ein Schlafzimmer mit einem großen Bett und zwei ausklappbaren Wandbetten sowie einem Bad mit Badewanne. Wenn die Wandbetten genutzt werden, wird der Raum recht klein. Im 1. Stock befinden sich Wohn- und Essbereich sowie die Küche. Alles ist ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen. Die Küche könnte definitiv eine Erneuerrung vertragen. Der Gasherd funktioniert leidlich, der Ofen auch nur zur Hälfte. Der Kühlschrank muss sich (im Sommer) sehr anstrengen die Temperatur kühl zu halten. Das Gefrierfach ist jedoch tadellos. Der Esstisch ist zum Ausschieben, so dass man gut 7-8 Personen unterbekommt. Im ersten Stock sind ein Duschbad und zwei weitere Schlafzimmer. Außerdem eine moderne Waschmaschine. Im Grunde eine Mischung aus Museum und gemütlichem Stadthaus. Mit 8 Personen wird es definitiv zu eng, aber 6 Personen bekommt man gut unter. Dafür ist der Preis gerechtfertigt.

Charming & Comfortable Escape

This was our first trip to France, and our first experience in a rented home. The home itself is situated in a ridiculously charming village - not far from Saint-Tropez, but far enough that you'll feel as if you've escaped to another world. Actually, you HAVE escaped to another world. The house itself is cozy, as advertised. Our bed was comfortable. The bathrooms feel tiny, but are fully equipped. The kitchen has the basics. Furniture is dated and a bit worn, but I suspect, intentionally so. If your inner-diva requires service and luxury, find a 5-star hotel in the city and prepare to spend considerably more than 100€/night. The operative word here, is 'charming.' Embrace the atmosphere, and disconnect from the chaos of modernity. Walk the streets of the neighborhood, and you might feel as though you've wandered onto a Hollywood backlot. However, the centuries-old facades you see contain real people, with rich histories and stories to tell.

The perfect stay in La Garde Freinet

This was my second stay at this location in La Garde Freinet, and once again, I could not have been more pleased. It is a perfect location, away from all the tourists in a quiet village with all that you could need right in town. It is close enough for day trips to Monaco, St. Tropez, the wineries etc. The house has true charm, and it is always clean, comfortable, and welcoming. I look forward to coming back again next year!

Reason to stay

La Garde Freinet is a quaint community located in Provence in a fabulous setting a short distance from the beaches of San Tropez and the many wineries scattered about the area. The nicely furnished home is within easy walking distance to the towns unique restaurants, art galleries, and markets. The home provided a wonderful home base to explore the area...what a great visit...we are already planning our next stay!

Trip worth doing again!

This home is in a perfect location in the South of France! The small town in tucked away in the hills but very convenient to many places (Nice, St. Tropez, Monaco, wine country...and so on. The home itself is very well kept and has everything one would need. It was great to have 2 full bathrooms and 3 full bedrooms. It is just a couple blocks from the center of town where there are great restaurants, cafes, bakery, grocery, shops...etc. I would recommend this place and will definitely return there again!

About the host

Hosted by Ryan Messer

Host profile image
We are from Cincinnati, Ohio and now live in Princeton, NJ. We are a family of 6: Ryan, Jimmy, Anderson (14), Olivier (6), Lillian (5) and Rocco (3).I have been visiting this house for nearly 30 years...and our family enjoys our annual visit to this wonderful home and the beautiful area surrounding the village .

Why they chose this property

I have been visiting this house for nearly 30 years. I was taken there at 21 by my 'life mentors' as they had been visiting that house for the 25 years before that. My dear friends Ian and Ambrose spent many years visiting this house with the owners we purchased it from, Jock & Pam Bevan, who live in Scotland. They found this house many years ago because one of Jock's nephews was married to one of the Redgrave daughters. The Redgraves family had a family compound just outside the village.
Since that time, this house has been the place of some of my best memories. There's such a calming, peaceful feeling that comes when staying there (as crazy as that sounds). We've had friends over the years who were dealing with things in their personal lives and have reported that the house was the place that helped them heal.
