Belle villa *** avec piscine en plein coeur de Villefranche-sur-Mer

Pour la 2ème année consécutive, nous sommes revenus dans cette location à Villefranche sur Mer. S'agissant d'une maison avec 3 chambres, elle permet à chacun d'avoir son espace de liberté. Nous bénéficions d'un parking, ce qui est très appréciable car les places sont rares. Nous sommes accueillis avec gentillesse. C'est une région riche en visites.

Good..... but traffic noise is getting worse since our last visit. Single bed mattresses uncomfortable. We believe this was also reported last year by other guests.

Beautiful and charming house located in an idyllic part of the south of France. Very impressed with the property, our 3 teenage children loved the pool and the close proximity to the Old Town, beach and harbour.

Property was also well equipped, great gas fired BBQ. Air-conditioning was a life saver. Very conveniently located by local supermarket and bakery. Also near local public transport of trains and buses and its only a short ride to Nice and Monaco. Only negative comment is that the photos on the website do not do the beautiful Villa justice, but it's nice surprise when you get there !!

The property is well situated as it is only a few minutes walk to local shops (Casino mini-market, bakers and general store) and the beach. Whilst it is on a hairpin bend, halfway up a hill that is not uncommon - there is some traffic noise related to the location but it is very little.

The villa itself has all the basic facilities that are needed and our daughters (aged eleven and five) loved the pool.

We had one minor issue whilst staying there and that was resolved within an hour - the support from the property owner (and Patrick the 'caretaker') was excellent.

There are good transport links by train and bus (although we never used the latter) meaning that Nice and Monaco are easily reachable; there is also excellent walking up the mountain sides (with great views over the harbours).

Positives:

- Great service and support from the owner and those who look after the property

- Fantastic hill run routes (if you like that)

- Good access to local shops, beach and transport

- Very relaxing location

Negatives

- Very expensive to eat at the restaurants

- Very expensive to buy stuff from the local shops

Overall, the villa is excellent and represented great value - it might be an expensive area, but you are on the French Riviera - what do you expect!

Wir haben eine Woche in der sehr schönen Villa Villefranche-sur-Mer verbracht. Haus und Pool waren perfekt, der Weg zur Bäckerei und in den Ort sehr kurz. Auch die direkte Busverbindung nach Nizza wurde genutzt. Ein Ohr zudrücken musste man nur, wenn Autos und Motorräder in der Schleife uns Haus knatterten.
