La Sonine provides a secure, peaceful and private hide-away in one of the world's most beautiful, exciting and varied landscapes. As wonderful as it is to just stay at the villa, Nice, St Paul de Vence and the Fondation Maeght, known as centres of art for decades are on your doorstep and cannot be missed. Vence and Tourettes, completely different from each other, are lovely places to explore, have lunch or a drink in the evening, and slightly further afield, Valbonne, Biot, Grasse and Mougins. If you have children, you are just 10 minutes from the beach or river and the hundreds of activities that these have to offer. For culinary excellence, you have only to go to St Paul where there are 2 Michelin-starred restaurants. Nice and Cannes (25 minutes) offers a the wilder night-life and Vence is a great center for Festivals and Music. There are excellent walks on the doorstep or you can drive into the back-country to the foot of the Alpes and in Winter, skiing at Isola.

Local activities swimming, tennis, walking, sailing, cycling, horse riding, golf, water skiing, mountain biking, mountaineering, paragliding, roller blading

Notes:

We are a family with 3 young children and love to spend our summers at La Sonine. While we are living in Asia, we cannot do this, so are happy to rent out the house to other families. We hope that you and your children will get as much enjoyment from tramping around the forest, swimming in the pool, making daisy chains, playing in the 'Wendy' house etc. as ours do. As tempting as it is to stay at the villa, don't miss the Fondation Maeght, the views from St Paul or Tourettes, lunch in Vence or a walk along the Promenade des Anglais. Each village is different, so don't miss them. For our kids the beach, the river on the way to Villneuve-Loubet and the tree climbing in Villneuve Loubet are essential. If you are there at the height of the season, just make sure you leave early for the beach and read our guest book for suggestions. On a practical note, shopping, doctors and hospitals couldn't be easier with 2 major supermarkets within 7 minutes and local shops on the way.

Guest Comments

Mr L Taylor (UK) 2007 The villa more than lived up to its description on the excellent web-site. Very comfortable, very spacious, very comprehensively and tastefully furnished, with everything we could have wished for in terms of extras. I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone to anyone who, like us, prefers the comfort, convenience and congeniality of a villa, rather than several hotel rooms to meet the needs of a group. T. Roose (USA) 2007 We greatly enjoyed our stay at La Sonine. What a lovely place! You are indeed fortunate to have it -- I hope you and your family are able to get back and forth to France very frequently to enjoy it --

Other Activities tree climbing; art galleries, Michelin Star Restaurants

A treasure in beauitiful surroundings!

Review Submitted: September 12, 2008, Date of stay: August, 2008

An absolutely amazing place very suitable for 6 adults and two kids, with a location that could not be better. Walking distance to the small village, perfect area for early and intense morning runs, near distance to Nice, airport etc. The house is very comfortable and has all facilities that you really need - great pool, big out door terraces, huge beautiful garden. The house really feels like a home, very "user friendly" thanks to that manuals, information etc has been provided by the owners in a super efficient way already prior to arrival. The interior is a nice mix of French and Asian style - perfect for the world traveler. We will definitely come back again if circumstances allow us to!

Owner's response:

Some new paintings and funky exterior lights are on their way so look out for new photos!
