Beautiful private traditional provencal villa available all year round

This house is perfect for families who wish to enjoy the house, relax in the large private garden and around the pool, take walks in the beautiful countryside, and visit the mountains or the beach. Dogs are very welcome and the property is fully fenced. If you are a family with children then you and your family will have a lovely and memorable holiday here like many other families have. It is also perfectly placed to visit the nearby lake St Cassien, and the night life and beach of Cannes where people sunbathe all year round. The mountains are a drive away with the nearest ski resort an hour and a half away by car.

Set in the hill top village of Montauroux, this traditional French villa offers a secluded haven away from it all without being out in the sticks. Montauroux offers a range of traditional French restaurants and cafes, as well as fantastic local butchers and patisseries. It is also 10 minutes drive from idyllic Lac St Cassian. Being 45 minutes drive from Nice Airport and Cannes, it is not only ideally located but situated in a picturesque location with stunning mountain walks close by. The house is set in a grove of 30 mature olive trees, part of a 200 year old olive grove.

The beautiful garden is landscaped into a graduated levels creates a rustic setting. There are 2 off road car parking spaces. The house is set on a 2500 m² plot, with 3 double bedrooms, two bathrooms and fully equipped kitchen, is ideal for both families and groups of friends or couples abroad. It is a rare property in the area where most properties for rent are modern and therefore naturally lack the same character as a traditional villa where part of the house is in fact a 200 year old shepherds cabin with 2 foot thick walls and floor boards that separate the bedroom from the downstairs area where the sheep would sleep at night.

For those of you with dogs, they are very welcome. The property is completely fenced in and there is no danger of them escaping. A walk through the forest is on the door step.

For eating out, you'll will find a great patisserie on the square for fresh pain au chocolat to go with your cafe creme at one of two cafes.

You will note the beauty of the house as you look through the photos and that is exactly how you will find it in reality.

This is a quiet residential area., a place of peace and calm, a completely private sanctuary.

Please note also that this year bed linen is not provided and we ask you bring your own. Thank you.

Great property in a fantastic location
This is a wonderful property which was just right for our family holiday at the Côte d’Azur. Lots of character and space; the pool is fantastic. As warned, there are quite a few mosquitos in the olive grove but that is to be expected so come prepared. It is well equipped with absolutely everything you might need. We fully recommend Genevieve.

Absolutely stunning place. Totally unspoilt and relaxing.
Really lovely farmhouse and very French! Lovely atmosphere and very well equipped. Very comfortable with everything that you would need. Home from home definitely. It’s in a beautiful spot just outside the pretty Montauroux village where you can have a beer in the square or buy your French stick and croissants! The gardens are spectacular in that there is so much birdlife and insects around the olive trees. It’s all very natural. The pool was fab and there are comfy sun loungers to relax on. We had table tennis tournaments and badminton games. We played cards just outside the house into the evening drinking our beers! Can’t recommrnd it highly enough. X

Perfect blue shuttered gite
We had the most lovely holiday. The house ticked all the boxes for me and my family. Small but charmingly decorated, set in an olive grove but not too far from the village. The children spent hours in the pool, the cicadas chirped and the sun shone. The kitchen was well stocked but we bbq-ed every night. It was close enough to coast, so we explored Grasse and went to aqua-splash in Antibres.

About the host

Hosted by Tom Moriarty

Host profile image
Hi there, my name it Tom Moriarty and I'm a musician, writer and voice over artist. I live here with my dog Watson. The house is a true sanctuary away from it all. I have written many songs here that are now on albums which you will find on Spotify etc. Equally the local surroundings are beautiful and inspiring. Each day I visit the nearby rivers, the forest or the lake. For adventures a little further away I chose this location because it's 40 minutes to the beach and 50 minutes to the nearest ski station, although doesn't get much snow anymore so you have to travel an hour and a half, still not far to get to a great ski resort. You'll have a great time here. The garden is beautiful, a great place to relax.

Why they chose this property

- The property is on the edge of the village for it to be quiet and tranquil however it is still just a few minutes drive to the village square

- Montauroux is perfectly positioned between the mountains and the sea. Cannes is 45 minutes away and the mountains about 55 minutes away.

- It is very private. The house is "hidden" from the road and the pool is not overlooked.

- It is very dog friendly and secure. The whole property is surrounded by a 4 ft 7" fence which will prevent even the most eager dog ( or young child in fact) from trying to make an escape. Equally there is no problem bringing your dog into the house.

- It is a large pool great for the kids but big enough for doing lengths.

- It has a beautiful garden set in a tiered olive grove

- It is very competitively priced given the space, the location, number of rooms, size of garden and pool. You will not find something this beautiful or traditional for this price.

What makes this property unique

This house is truly a traditional villa which you will find very hard to find elsewhere. It is full of character and charm and a beautiful place to stay. It is set in an olive grove with 28 trees under which you can lounge in the summer. The pool is set in an orchard with cherry, plum and quince trees that provide shade for your sun loungers. It is a large pool, ample enough for swimming lengths in the morning and great for the kids. The whole property is securely fenced so there is no worrying about children or pets making a run for it! The dining area is on one of the Olive tiers and is perfect for long evenings enjoying a relaxing dinner and conversation with friends and family. Opposite the property is the entrance to a wood where you can easily walk the dog or wander with the family for a short walk. Of course the forests of the Var are not far away and Lac St Cassien is a few minutes drive away. If you like the beach then it's a 30 minute drive to Cannes and the Esterel coast where you'll find the secluded "secret" beaches off the coast road.
