A Week on the French Riviera
A group of nine women traveled from the United States to Nice, France. The villa we chose, La Plantade, has stunning views, beautiful art, and is well located near the village of Tourrettes sur Loup. Quite walkable to enjoy an early breakfast of chocolate, croissant and espresso. The villa owner, Andrea, Agrell, communicated clearly and quickly with our group. She recommended several of the medieval villages nearby, even driving a couple of our group to visit them, while others remained at the Villa to relax. We have not even been home a week, and we all miss this place. Beautiful rosebushes, fresh herbs, and stunning views from the terrace will lift your spirit. Many thanks to our host!

Great location and villa was excellent
Stayed here as part of our trip for the Rugby World Cup. 9 people altogether over the 5 bedrooms which worked perfectly. Social areas inside and outside were excellent and the pool a great size to have a bit of fun with. Tourrettes-sur-loup is a great village too with local walks, great restaurants and access from there into the moutains as well as days to the beach. Perfect for us!

Lovely week in a beautiful villa
We had a great week in Tourettes-sur-loop. The villa has stunning views of the village, hills and down to the coast and you can enjoy these from the lovely terrace and pool, set in a beautiful garden. The house is traditional and has some minor quirks, like a cat (who was very laid back and no trouble) but overall it's stunning. You are just a short walk from the village which has a variety of shops, restaurants and a great ice cream shop. There's plenty of things to do within a fairly short car journey, although some of these will involve a few hair-raising hairpin bends. The access to the villa is so narrow at one bit that you will need help to guide your car up - we managed a Peugeot 308(just) but mostly we parked just down the road at the free car park. Andrea, the owner, is very helpful and knowledgeable about the villa, the village and the wider area. She very kindly brought us bread, cheese and croissants on our first morning and gave us plenty of useful suggestions for excursions. It is a fabulous place to spend a week and we'd happily recommend.

Wonderful stay
La Plantade is a lovely spacious house with stunning gardens and outdoor space. From the sofas on the terrace the view is magnificent - one can even see the sea. It is only a short walk into the village where there is a very good bakery, numerous restaurants and a great market on a Wednesday morning. Andrea is a wonderful host - she could not have been more generous and attentive. A marvellous place to stay and relax.

Why they chose this property

'La Plantade' is a family home with antiques, art and memorabilia belonging to my parents and grandparents. As such, it is warmly welcoming and unique as a rental property. It contains many unusual items with historical significance.

What makes this property unique

The location of the house is perfect with respect to its distance to the lovely perched village of Tourrettes-sur-Loup. It is easily 'walkable' within 3 to 5 minutes - depending upon your legs, energy and hunger for that 'café au lait'! It has beautiful views extending to the blue Esterel mountains and sea by St Tropez to nearer mountains and bays plus beautiful Tourrettes. There is fantastic hiking, skiing, golf, food all within short distances.
