About this property

Beautiful Apartment, Balcony with Stunning View on Mountains and River

The apartment is in the beautiful village of Saorge, overlooking the Roya Valley. The village is considered to be one of the most beautiful Villages in France (see the Saorge web site) and has good road and rail connections with the coast (Ventimiglia and the Cote d'Azur) and Northern Italy (Cuneo etc.).
The flat has a small balcony and some stunning views. It is a small flat but very well equipped. When you look at the pictures you will notice that we have kept the original layout, the original tiles in the kitchen and the balcony, the original beams in the whole flat. The kitchen is fully equipped with new pots and pans and good quality china. There is a Baby Grand Piano in the living room that belonged to my mum, a musician, and that you are more than welcome to play. In the bedroom there's a double bed and in the bathroom (a shower and toilet room) there is a washing machine that you can use.

We were delighted with our stay. Elisa and Simon were very considerate hosts, confirming the booking request rapidly and providing very good travel advice, meeting us in the village and keeping in contact at an appropriate level during our stay.The apartment is in a beautiful location looking straight down the Roya valley, with walks from the doorstep into the mountains. Having a supermarket next door with fresh bread was fantastic, and the local bus service was very helpful for visiting other villages.We loved our stay in Saorge.

Très bien

L’appartement n’est pas grand, mais bien conçu et suffisant pour deux personnes. Le balcon, un peu exigu, offre une vue plongeant sur la vallée de la Roya. La fenêtre peut servir de passe plat. La ventilation est facile en ouvrant la porte d’entrée. Le village, très typique, est construit sur une pente abrupte. Il est inaccessible aux voitures. Les musiciens seront heureux de la présence d’un piano demi queue accordé. Séjour agréable et dépaysant.

Luc et sa femme ont été des guests parfaits. Ils ont profité du cadre et des possibilités de balades mais ils ont aussi pris soin de l'appartement. Merci

About the host

Hosted by Elisabetta Pannelli Tapsell

Host profile image
Hello, my name's Elisabetta, I'm Italian from my father's side and American from my mother's. After living in in different parts of the world, I settled down in Saorge, a beautiful mountain village in South-East France where in 2008 I met my husband Simon, a Londoner.

Our primary residence is now a stone house further up in the mountains, surrounded by 2 hectares of land at about a 20-minute walk from the village.

We love Saorge, the people who live there, the nature and we truly hope you too will enjoy the village and the apartment.

Why they chose this property

The apartment was bought in the year 2000. As soon as I walked in and I saw the balcony and the view, I fell in love with it; it is located in the heart of the village but it overlooks the valley and the river Roya.

What makes this property unique

The village is considered to be one of the most interesting and attractive in this area (see the Saorge web site) and has good road and rail connections with the coast (Ventimiglia and the Cote d'Azur) and Italy (Cuneo etc.).

Saorge has a pizzeria, a restaurant, 2 general shops, a bar tabac, a post office and a paper shop. It also has several boutiques. There are many lovely walks to be taken directly from the village and in the summer months there are concerts, both classical and rock at the monastery. The main fete is in August and runs for 4 days.
