It was an amazing experience in the mountains. Property is in an excellent location, clean,tidy and as listed. We stayed 4 nights and enjoyed beautiful views from the property. Host Mr Vincent is genuine and a gentleman. Communication was very smooth and helped us in every aspect in terms of proper guidance about the area and check-in process.

Lovely place. It was like a dream.

We had a wonderfull time at Vincent's little paradise. The swimming pool with mountainview was great. Vincent respects your privacy, but is always available. The restaurants in the neighborhood are very good and not far away. We really enjoyed our stay and we love to come back one day.

This is a summer plae with pool, private patio and hiking trails - none of which ee used in rainy March. The road is steep and curvy - very French. The internet was out. There were no groceries or restsurants nearby on a Sunday evening. But the apartment was clean and cozy with great views of the valley. Vincent was lovely and tried to make us comfortable. Good value if you want to stay in the woods.

A Beautiful Location

Vincent was a wonderful host. He was responsive to questions and very belpful. A very kind man. The property is beautiful. Olve trees, lemon yrees, grape vines, flowers. And the views are magnificent. It is located VERY far up a narrow and twisting mountain road. IYou must be comfortable with mountain driving. All in all, a good experience.

Un cadre idéal pour des vacances reposantes. A la fois en montagne mais facile de se déplacer dans les villes alentours, nous avons pu profiter de Nice, Antibes Monaco et visiter les villages perchés autour de Contes. Plusieurs itinéraires de randonnées à disposition, nous avons tester les sentiers du mont Macaron.

Kleines Paradies

Wir hatten wunderschöne fünf Tage hier. Vincent ist ein sehr freundlicher, immer hilfsbereiter Gastgeber. Vielen Dank dafür. Der Pool ist unfassbar schön mit einer tollen Aussicht. Einziger Wermutstropfen die etwas anstrengende Anfahrt den Berg herauf.

Vous aimerez la nature

La route sinueuse et pentue ne doit pas décourager. Au bout, c'est la nature reine et le repos. Nous occupions le gîte à l'étage au charme désuet : quasiment pas de murs pleins dans la pièce à vivre et la chambre, toutes deux tournées vers l'est et face aux collines environnantes. Un régal pour la vue! Merci à Chantal qui nous a accueillis et accompagnés autant que de besoin.

Super endroit

Très bel endroit sur les hauteurs de Contes. Nous avons eu un très bon accueil de la part du propriétaire, qui est très agréable et prévenant. Nous avons séjourné avec notre fils de 6 ans qui a dormi sur le canapé lit. L’endroit est très calme et reposant. Bonne adresse à retenir !!
