Super summer 09
Review Submitted: July 21, 2009

We spent a quiet, relaxing fortnight in this impressive family home. Initial impressions were that the description badly undersold the place. It is a well appointed villa with every kitchen appliance and utensil we could ever need. We had barbeques on the superb table under the arches, breakfasts on the terrace and dinners in the main sitting dining room. Everywhere you look there are places to sit and relax - loungers and hammocks by the pool; little tables tucked away in alcoves, under arbours, on the boule pit; armchairs in the living room and the library and a writing desk too.
It is well situated for driving up and down the coast between Cannes and Nice or into the hills to see Grasse and other beautiful hill towns.
The two teenage boys were happy with the wireless internet connection and if we'd thought about it I guess we could have taken our Sky card to use in one of the four boxes connected to widescreen TVs. Instead we watched a couple of the DVDs from the house and a couple of our own. Mostly we lounged about the place with drinks listening to the grasshoppers.
I think the description of the house has been updated now but it is still difficult to explain how comfortable it made us feel. Suffice to say we'd love to go back and chill out for another fortnight.
