Quite simply the best of views: overlooking Cap Ferrat, the Rade of Villefranche and Beaulieu bay , there is the constant movement of boats and sails against the blue sky and turquoise sea. The villa is situated in its own gardens with pool, shaded seating and eating areas, roses, cacti and palm trees. Inside is a generous sitting and dining area, a fitted kitchen and sleeping for 12 arranged as follows: master bedroom , double bedroom and twin bed room all with en suite bath/shower rooms and air conditioning are in the main house. On the pool level are two further bedrooms - one double and one twin both with en suite shower rooms and one has an en suite bunk room. In the garden is a guest house with a double bed, en suite shower and air conditioning and stunning views.

The house was amazing so was the town. We took Uber rides into town. We ordered food online and it was delivered. Everything was very easy. Would recommend.
Our family had a wonderful week. The views were outstanding and the villa was spacious with plenty of room for everyone to enjoy. Our host Tamsin was very responsive and helpful and we appreciated the well equipped kitchen stocked enough to get us going.
Such a beautiful villa with spectacular views! The house and outside areas are gorgeous and is so well appointed with anything you might need. We had 7 friends and we had plenty of room with so many areas to relax and eat. And the area is perfect!
The photos do not do this property justice. Absolutely breath taking views. This property is loaded with amenities and all aspects of the service are truly 5 stars. Great Cote d’Azur location. We’ll be back!!!
We had the most amazing stay at this Villa. Tamsin and her husband could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The space is perfect and the property is gorgeous. We will be back!
Wonderful property set high in Villefranche with glorious views of the bay. Close walking distance to the old town, beach, station and neighbouring town of Beaulieu. Thanks for a fantastic stay.
The pictures of this property don’t do it justice. It’s beautiful and well stocked, the terrace and the gardens with the view are like something out of a fairytale. The property manager and housekeeper were so helpful and everything went smoothly. We absolutely hope to be back!
The home was wonderful and the location/view unrivaled. it is breathtaking. It also comfortable and so well equipped. The manager and other staff were friendly, and so helpful. You won't want to leave your terrace, but Villefranche is a wonderful town and Nice/Monte Carlos so close. It is a hike back up the hill from town, but here is Uber if you need it. I never "rate" anything online. But this deserved the 5 star acclaim.
We had an amazing trip staying in this wonderful home!
We felt transported and treated to a true Côte d'Azur experience. The house is fully equipped with anything we needed. And it's absolutely beautiful ! The walk to town was easy and the walk back up the hill justified all the croissants and treats we enjoyed. Villefranche had great restaurants and we explored many of the neighboring towns, as well.
Having Tamsin and Christian's help and advice for everything from restaurant recommendations to where to get a gas can if you run out of gas. Such friendly, responsive and helpful service.
We miss it already and hope to return.

Incredibly well looked after property with Stunning views. Owners have thought of everything with the bedrooms (great beds) bathrooms and kitchen having everything you need. Air conditioning in every room works well.
Established gardens and a fantastic pool complete the place and Tamsin the property manager was easily contactable and responded immediately. We will be back.
We stayed with a large group of family members, and this villa was the perfect base to experience the Côte d'Azur. The views from every room in this super sized villa are exquisite, and even with twelve of us there was plenty of space to gather or to enjoy the views in privacy. A short drive or uber ride to Nice, Monaco, Eze, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat or even Cannes. Tamsin was super responsive and she gave us many great recommendations. We will definitely be back, but for a longer stay next time! Thank you for sharing this amazing home!
Our large family and additional friends enjoyed our stay here. The property is built into the hillside overlooking the water. There is a lovely long and steep path, leading down to the water and old town. Parking is available for multiple cars on the street. The house is more beautiful with a better view than can be pictured here. The kitchen is fully stocked even with spices and other necessities. The host left fresh flowers in different rooms for us and checked in regularly. We felt very comfortable with our young children and the adults alike. There was plenty of space for everyone to stay. We didn’t even use all the bedrooms. There are 7 bedrooms and bathrooms in total. Even in October, the pool was comfortable to use and we enjoyed our time both inside and outside. They had laundry machines available to use. I hope we can come back again sometime. We are already recommending the house to other friends. It is one of those properties that exceeds your expectations.

A fantastic place to relax and explore the Riviera.
A real family villa with plenty of homely touches to ensure that you feel welcome and begin winding down as soon as you arrive.
The housekeeper was very helpful in providing local information on places to visit, transport and shops - there's a supermarket nearby which will deliver your shopping free of charge. A taxi from Nice airport direct to the villa is very straigt-forward and takes about half and hour. Local buses and trains are a short walk away and will take you to Nice and Monte Carlo for a couple of euros return.
The villa and garden are really well looked after and offer fabulous views over the bay, where you can watch cruise ships and yachts coming and going.
We were lucky enough to have great weather and enjoyed breakfast on the terrace in the morning, sun loungers by the pool, barbeque for lunch and the comfy chairs in the garden in the evening with a few glasses of wine! There's loads of space for everyone.
We visited Nice, Monte Carlo, Menton, Cap Ferrat and the Rothschild Mansion, as well as local restaurants in Villefranche, but there's lots we didn't have time to explore so we're looking forward to coming back.
Thank you.
Beautiful home, spectacular views. 4 couples stayed in this home. The pictures don’t do the views justice. The views and outdoor living spaces are outstanding and make the house what it is.
We didn’t use the pool because of the cool season but I could see the fun we could have had in the pool area if only the weather cooperated.
The living space is adequate for our group and we loved the fully stocked large kitchen. The views more than make up for the uphill climb from the village. If the climb is too much just take an Uber. The only thing the house lacks is location in terms of easy access to restaurants and grocery. It’s a 15 min walk down hill to the village, 20+ min returning because of the uphill climb. I’m in good shape and I still felt the climb.
There are 2 additional bdrms under the main house on pool level that our group didn’t use and I wouldn’t care to stay in because the rooms are windowless with the exception of windows in the doors with window coverings to keep the room private to the hallway. U must lock yourself in because the hallway is not able to be locked from the outside, but they are en-suite and right outside the pool. I smelled a not so pleasant odor from the hallway on the pool level, not so much in the rooms but not sure as no one stayed in the rooms below the house. The ensuite cabana above the main house has spectacular views. My friend and his wife loved the cabana. We all loved our stay in this home. I could have stayed longer.
We stayed in this lovely and indeed very spacious villa with family and friends. We were 8 people in total. The villa was beautifully and personally decorated, the kitchen was fully equipped including coffee, milk and spices. So we often enjoyed cooking with fresh fish from the market. At the end of our stay (it was April) we even had breakfast on the terrasse with a wonderful view to the sea and neighbouring Cap Ferrat. We managed to also do some swimming in the pool. The outdoor area is beautifully landscaped. With all the beauty inside the villa and outside, we almost preferred staying on the premises instead of doing seightseeing.All in all, a generous villa, very clean (with cleaning 3 times a week) and a superb surrounding.We'd certainly love to come again. A big thank you to Tamsin and the owners for sharing this place with us.
This property is magical. This is not an understatement. We had 6 couples (1 with a 8 month old baby) staying with us for a 50th birthday. There are 6 bedrooms as well as a 7th small room off a bedroom with bunkbeds. We used every square foot of this property that is very large. The kitchen is extremely well equipped. We cooked in 3 nights (awesome butcher down in the village). Spent every night on the outdoor terraces. Even the landscaping is magical. The pictures don't do it justice in my opinion. The views of the sea are amazing. The location is amazing (it is a short walk with steps and incline to the village, but it's the perfect amount for exercise). I cannot recommend this property enough.
Great introduction to Villefranche sur Mer great location the view from the patio is the best no restaurant will have a better view greatly enjoy coffee on patio every morning simply the best!
Be prepared for a challenge in walking back up the stairs as they are a great workout.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the villa. Considering there were 11 of us of all ages there was plenty of space for everyone inside and out. A short walk down hill to town, train station and bus stop. Visited Nice, Monaco, walked round Cap Farat, so much to do. Just to be aware the only problem was when walking back to the villa there was a lot of stairs and the older ones amongst us found that could be quite taxing at the end of the day, however there were plenty of Ubers so these were often used. All in all could not fault the villa at all. Thanks to Tamsin and our cleaning lady.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Villa is very well equipped and beautifully maintained. Views are spectacular and the property manager was very helpful. Would love to visit again in the future.
We stayed here for a week in the summer and had the most wonderful time. The villa has the most incredible views and everything you need for the perfect stay. It is a short walk down to the shops, the beaches and the markets. Tamsin made the whole process smooth and was a great host. We all keep raving about our time at La Vigie and can't wait to return.
