"The quality of the accommodation was to a high standard located in a very peaceful area. We were surprised and pleased at how quiet it was at the location. "

"We had an unforgettable holiday and really loved the house. The air conditioning in each of the bedrooms was a major plus - really helpful in the heat. Lovely terraced garden and pool. Pleasant shaded patio for al fresco meals. Spacious, well-furnished lounge. Mosquito nets at all the windows. Fantastic local area - really loved Mougins, Antibes, Juan les Pins jazz festival and Grasse. "

"The house had everything we needed and was well furnished in a traditional style which we liked. Great position for exploring the Cote d'Azur, yet on its own for peace and tranquillity. Easy access to Mougins and the local supermarket, pharmacy, bakery, etc. Carrefour at Mougins has pretty much everything required for catering, including fresh fish, bread, salads etc. The bakery at the bottom of the drive makes bread, pastries and cakes on site in a wood burning oven. The pool was fantastic. We very much appreciate the private villa selection and personal touch that you are able to offer - it makes for a most enjoyable week in appreciated surroundings."

"It was very nice to have the canal near the house. We ran every morning and it is the first time we have been able to run in the South of France as normally the area is too hilly in the heat. The house was also very well located for access to local villages and towns and shopping. The outside kitchen was lovely and we made the most of everything. The local restaurants in Mougins are generally very nice but we cooked ourselves most of the time. The local produce is so good it is a shame not to make the most of it.
We would love to return to this property. We really enjoyed it very much. "

"Mougins is a great area - easily accessible from Nice and so much to do and see locally, not to mention lovely restaurants in the old town. The garden of this house is especially nice with the terraces and the old olive trees. The barbecue area with separate sitting room was great too. "
Mrs G - (8/2007)
"The location is excellent for us because it is quiet and it is perfect for running. Many locations in S France are not good for running unless you are at the sea front due to the steep gradients. Being situated on the canal is perfect for running, walking and cycling.
The property is perfectly situated between the lovely towns of Mougin and Mouan Sartoux with very close proximity to the old village of Mougin. There is a myriad of restaurants to chose from and there are many local villaeges and towns within easy reach. Grasse is a lovely place to visit. The location also benefits from the proximity of the local boulangerie, however walking to any of the resaurants or the boulangerie is not really a viable option due to the proximity of the property at the top of a VERY STEEP private road which is approximately .75 of a mile. Taxi services in France are very expensive and not easy to get hold of. One person has to refrain from drinking in order to drive to any restaurants.
We discovered this on our first trip but the good outweighed the negative and so we have returned several times"

"Good property and service from the local manager. Recommended."
Stan Liczynski - United Kingdom (7/2013)
"We have visited this villa many times and still enjoy its ambience. This villa is in a lovely setting with good views, very quiet and secluded away from the hustle and bustle. It has everything you could ask of a holiday villa. The photos in the brochure do not do this villa the justice it deserves. Although access to the villa is via steep steps up to the property this adds to its character set within olive trees, well maintained garden and terraces with a flowing stream below the balcony. Ideal for couples or with older children. "
