Village house, sleeps 4. 5km coast.
Weekly rental EUR 400-700 |
This charming 19th century house is in the centre of the ancient village of Biot. It is a tall house in a narrow cobbled street and the accomodation is on four levels and has a fairly steep staircase. There are free car parks a few minutes walk away. The top floor has a balcony with garden furniture for outdoor meals and a view of the sea. This is a spacious house of character, with exposed beams and traditional stone floor tiles. The interior is of a simple standard but we think it represents excellent value for money and is an unusual opportunity to stay in the heart of a picturesque old village. |
