About this property
CHARMING APARTMENT at the gates of Mercantour (SOSPEL)
CURRENTLY POSSIBILITY OF RENT FROM SUNDAY TO SUNDAY.
* OPTIONAL END OF STAY HOUSEHOLD OPTION: 30 euros *
** WEEKLY RENTAL (renewable) ONLY **
At the crossroads of the Bévéra and Roya valleys, in the Mercantour National Park, 15 km from Menton, 40 km from Nice, and 8 km from Italy, in the Provence Alpes Côte d'Azur region, Sospel ( 350 m above sea level) is a small medieval village with a rich historical and architectural heritage located in the heart of unusual landscapes. Sospel is a central place to carry out many cultural and sporting activities (baroque music festivals, hiking, horse riding, mountain biking, paragliding, canyoning, etc.).
The 'Palais du Golf', a condominium dating from 1907, this building was the 'Golf Hotel' until the 1930s. Indeed, before the creation of the Monaco golf course, Sospel was 'Le' golf de la 'riviera française'. To get there, tourists took a tram connecting Menton to Sospel, specially built to reach the Golf.
Although the building needs a bit of paint, the apartment has been refurbished in the style of the time. It is ideally located, facing due south in a manicured park. Lovers of this region, we come to this apartment several times a year. Anxious to offer a comfortable place, we expect in return a respect for the goods and the site, in a relationship of mutual trust.
