Perfect

Montfleurie is as idyllic as it gets - perfect location, panoramic views of the beautiful countryside and absolute peace and privacy. The owners, Alma and Glenn, are lovely and belong to that rare breed of hosts who are completely guest-centric. They have anticipated everything you may need to make your holiday easy and comfortable. The property is spotlessly clean, well-maintained and tastefully decorated throughout. We appreciated the comfortable mattresses and pillows, the upgraded linens and fluffy towels, the masses of hot water, insect blinds, satellite TV (for Wimbledon!), BBQ, WiFi, stereo, washing machine, dishwasher, huge fridge, iron, shelves of books and even duvets for the odd cool night.
The infinity pool area is outstanding. It provides even more views over the vineyards and is a total sun trap. I swam at 6:00 every morning and watched the sunlight spread across the hills. Beautiful memory. The covered terrace at the front of the house is a good place to read, listen to the birds and just relax. The terraced gardens have huge lavender beds and the fragrance was heavenly.
The location is ideal for exploring the whole region, so we set off each morning and returned mid-afternoon to swim, snooze, read and relax. Oh, and eat the goodies we'd bought at the country markets. It's one of the most relaxing holidays I've ever had. The Info Pack and maps provided were extremely helpful, thank you. Favourite places were Grasse (Fragonard), Les Arcs and Antibes. For wines try Chateau Ste Roseline, Chateau D'Esclans, although there are domaines dotted all over the place.
I would absolutely recommend this property - what you see on the website is what you get, and then some. Thank you Alma and Glenn.
