Fijne gasten, vlotte en duidelijke communicatie. Ze hebben het huis netjes achtergelaten en volgens mij heerlijk genoten van hun verblijf.
About the host
Hosted by Gîte de la Cigogne
I'm a web developer, and my wife, Micheline, is a singer specializing in French chansons. Together with our two sons, we live in a former farmhouse nestled in the forest between Vence and St. Paul.
We travel frequently to the Netherlands, but for a true vacation, we always choose a European country where we haven’t lived before—exploring new cultures is part of our adventure. I have a passion for restoring and driving my 1975 Peugeot 504 Coupe, though I must admit the driving part is often more successful than the fixing. Micheline has recently taken up horse riding and finds great joy in tending to her little vegetable garden, which she proudly shows to anyone visiting our home. Having grown up in a hotel and restaurant, hospitality has always been a natural part of my life, shaping the way we welcome guests into our home.
Why they chose this property
Our lovingly renovated old farmhouse exudes the charm and character of Provence. Nestled on a spacious estate with terraced landscapes (restanques), fruit trees, and a beautiful view of the surrounding forest, it offers a true escape into nature. We first discovered this mas on a holiday and were immediately captivated by its beauty and serene location. Our family fell in love with the expansive garden, the inviting swimming pool, and the peaceful atmosphere. The unique light of the Midi—the same magical glow that once inspired artists like Chagall, Picasso, and Miró—combined with the region’s mild, sun-drenched climate, has kept us here since 2013, and we couldn’t be happier.
What makes this property unique
First and foremost, the fantastic sunny climate and stunning forest setting make this place truly special. Nestled at the foothills of the Alps and close to the Mediterranean, it offers the best of both worlds.
Outdoor enthusiasts will find endless opportunities for adventure—whether it’s hiking (rando), trail running, rock climbing, or sailing on the Mediterranean. The forest begins right at our garden’s edge, while the mountains, including the famous Col de Vence—a legendary cycling route—are just 10 minutes away. The beach, perfect for a seaside escape, is only a 30-minute drive. Nearby, the medieval hilltop villages of Saint-Paul and Tourrettes-sur-Loup, both listed among France’s most beautiful villages, are just a short 10-minute drive away. And in the summer, Vence comes alive with vibrant music and art festivals, centered around Place du Grand Jardin, making it the cultural heart of the region.
