Les Volets Bleus - Traditional Townhouse in the Heart of Old Antibes

This charming, completely renovated traditionally styled holiday house is composed of two old townhouses like a pyramid upside down. It's situated in the calm carless authentic medieval part of Old Antibes on historical Greek and Roman ground. The Picasso Museum in the Chateau Grimaldi and the impressing Roman Cathedral are incredibly nearby. Just around two corners you can buy fresh food at the everydays market as you'll be in no time at the sandy beach, the yacht-harbour, in lovely restaurants, interesting shops or famous museums. When you're coming back you'll profit from the amazing atmosphere of this exceptional house in quietness. The main part of it includes just like a flat a large living area with a passage to an open kitchen with a small open fireplace. The living opens to a wide loft with an enlightened double bed and gives access to the cosy terrace with sea view. 1st floor: bedroom, separate toilet and bathroom. Ground floor: Studio with poss. of separate access.

Notes:

The spacious living is connected on one floor with the kitchen (uniting two former separated house parts) and so builds an important flat part on the second floor. It's open up to the roof and leads to a wide wooden loft with double bed & sofa that also can be used as another additional bed. The loft gives access to the wonderfully private terrace on this highest level of the house in direction south-east with possibility of panoramic sea view. The newly renovated famous Picasso Museum in the old Château Grimaldi building as the Sarazene tower of the cathedral completes the panorama in direct neighbour ship. 'La Gravette' is Vieil Antibes bay formed stonewall protected intimate sandy beach and it is the 'house beach' of LES VOLETS BLEUS as it lies at the feet of the quarter just a few steps outside the walls onto the remparts. Access via a very nice walk by entering the harbour.

back to top

The house is in a central - but quiet position.

The world-famous Picasso Museum is up this alley in less then 100 m. Here in the 'rue St. Esprit', the important French novelist Jacques Audiberti grew up, and the famous French song writer Claude Nougaro composed a song about him and this lane. There is a beautiful sandy 'house beach' at the feet of the property without direct access, but the way to it is one of the most alive ones in Antibes and maybe whole the côte. You can buy fresh fish from the fisher-men's harbour sales point on it, can get your newspapers and baguettes on the way back from your morning swim as one out of hundred suggestions. Naturally there are sailing facilities and motorboat rentals in the harbour or nearby beaches. Nice airport is less then 20 km away. The train station of Antibes is a TGV stop in about 10 minutes walking distance. The Bus station for public transport is about 5 minutes away. Free Parkings are rather nearby or very close on the rem-parts at the seaside, the house is in the quiet 2nd row

SPECIAL OFFER:

Please contact the owner to discuss rental conditions for eventual long term (winter) periods - for more than two weeks - and in case different periods are desired.

Parking situation

Usually - with very few exceptions - there are no parking's directly at the houses in the old town. Les Volets bleus are in the privileged situation to have one of the very last toll free parking for residents of the old town in only 30 meters distance on the Ramparts, but naturally without a guarantee to get one. Mostly we get one there but use the car seldom. The payable harbour parking areas beneath the house as free Pekings are reachable by wonderful sightseeing ways not far from and to the house. Supplementary information for renters who come by aeroplane: Our house management provides a pick-up and bring service from and to the airport. So if you don't need a car everyday: In case you need one, you'll have the choice between several car rentals in Antibes close to Les Volets bleus.

: We wish we were still in Antibes. Antibes was just as you described it, and Les Volets Bleus was a perfect place to spend the week. Thank you again for providing such a great apartment. Is there a place that we can recommend Les Volets Bleus on the Holiday-Rentals website? Thank you again, and we will definitely return to Les Volets Bleus.
Best Regards,
Alan and Annette Montgomery

just to thank you for the use of your lovely house in Antibes
we had a lovely week, a bit too hot but we cooled off in the sea! Thanks to Jacques for his help and being so nice. Is that a picture of Picasso on the wall above the fridge? it looks like he is sat on the terrace upstairs! Kathy
