Itâs a wonderful apartment, small but with everything you really need, and the view of the bay from the large balcony is truly fantastic! Tim is great, very personable, communicative and accommodating. Itâs a perfect location to visit other places in the CĂŽte dâAzur, and very close to major bus stops, a small grocery and Picardâs frozen foods. We spent a whole month here and the only problem we had was dragging ourselves away from the view to go sightseeing! Highly recommend this apartment!
The apartment is exactly as describe clean and comfortable with a fantastic view. The location is good for local transport and amenities. We would definitely stay in the apartment again.
This is a lovely apartment with superb views and in an excellent location.
We spent a fantastic week exploring Villefranche and the surrounding area.
The hosts were extremely helpful.
Great spacious apartment with great layout and excellent views. The balcony is great to watch the beautiful Bay of Villefranche and the world go by. Can't wait to return!
Ideally located apartment for buses and local shops. The view from the balcony is amazing and the the apartment has everything you need. the owners communication is great and helped us out when the bus stop had moved in Nice! the only downside is the proximity to the main road and the noise from the traffic.
We've been holidaying in Villefranche for about 12 years and have stayed in lots of different apartments but we keep returning to this one and have stayed here 4 or maybe 5 times. Says it all really! This is our happy place and now feels like "home from home". Villefranche is such a lovely place to stay and the apartment is just perfect with the most beautiful views from the balcony. Location is great - 10 minutes walk to beach and restaurants and the bus is 2 minutes away to pop along to Nice or Cap Ferrat for lunch! We love it here and hope to return many more times in the future!
Bereits die Kommunikation im vorhinein war einwandfrei (auf englisch) und immer nett. Wir hatten bei der Ankunft kleine Probleme wegen der SchlĂŒssel, die immer mal auftreten können und welche auch schnell angegangen wurden.Ich hatte die Anzeige vorher schlecht gelesen, sodass mir erst vor Ort klar wurde, dass es keine Waschmaschine und kein WLAN gibt. FĂŒr einen 10-tĂ€gigen Urlaub muss man dann einige Bade/-StrandtĂŒcher mitbringen, was wir nicht hatten, sodass wir einige nachkaufen mussten - als Tipp (P.s. 4 Stk. wurden gestellt). Die TĂŒr zum WC und die TĂŒr zum Bad können nicht geschlossen, nur angelehnt werden- als Info. Die Lage ist super, man ist schnell fuĂlĂ€ufig in der Villefranche Altstadt und die Bushaltestelle fĂŒr die Busse nach Nizza, Monaco, St. Jean Cap Ferrat und zu all den anderen sehenswerten Orten ist in 3-5Min zu FuĂ erreichbar. Wenn man keinen groĂen Einkauf schleppen möchte, kann man sich von Carrefour oder Intermarche den Einkauf liefern lassen - super Sache! Nizza ist natĂŒrlich kostspielig was Essen gehen/ Sonnenliegen mieten angeht, aber mit Wasserschuhen und einer gemĂŒtlichen Liegemöglichkeit auch auf Steinböden, hat man immer schöne Strandtage. Und selbstgekochtes Essen auf dem Balkon war immer schön. Wir lieben es! Dankeschön an Tim und Catherine, dass wir den Check out spontan nach hinten verschieben konnten, fĂŒr das gemĂŒtliche Appartment mit zauberhaftem Blick und eine schöne entspannte Urlaubszeit!!
Sehr schöne Wohnung, in der es an nichts fehlt. Wunderschöner Blick auf das Cap Ferrat.
Alles war Bestens, guter und freundlicher Kontakt zum Besitzer. Wir haben die Wohnung den Blick und die NĂ€he zu allem genossen.
NatĂŒrlich bedeuten die zwei StraĂen mit den 2 Ampeln auf den beiden StraĂen, dass es nicht sehr ruhig ist, was aber vorher schon bekannt war. Dennoch haben wir gut geschlafen und die 5 Tage in dieser herrlichen Gegend, ein Katzensorung entfern von Nizza sehr genossen.
This lovely apartment had a large balcony with a view that would be hard to beat---bay, bikers, people running and waking, strolling with their dogs, etc. It was close to grocery store, shopping and old village. Our host, Tim, was kind, quick to respond to any inquiries and flexible. We hpe to return. Merci beaucoup!
Lovely apartment with amazing views in Villefranche-sur-Mer. Excellent communication with Tim and Catherine. Market and patisserie very close by, really enjoyed our stay there.
.we have stayed in this apartment a few times before and love the authentic simple french feel this light bright apartment gives along with its magnificent views of the bay. Lovely to relax without the invasion of technology and the hum drum of the modern world. Villefranche-sur-Mer perfect location for exploring South of France and even a plunge into Italy. Easy access to public transport but the real plus are the owners. They gave a real personal touch with invaluable information and tips to enhance our stay. Places to visit, walk, eat, shop, transport etc. . Fabulous. So glad we decided to go for three weeks and eventually got our delayed, due to covid restrictions, holiday.
The apartment was marvellous to stay at with a fantastic view and being very spacious with a sunny balcony where we took most of our meals. The location is very good with transport very close by. We were very sorry to leave. Loved it.

The apartment is situated in the hill over Villafranche overlooking the bay with marvellous view. Different cruise ships and boats arrived each day and we enjoyed very much the view to the lighthouse in Cap Ferrat. The apartment is practical, but has not got an air condition, just a fan, so in July it was very warm. We had to move the beds in front of the terrasse and sleep with open doors. Excepy from this, the apartment and view was brilliant.
Enjoyed a 6 night stay in this lovely apartment, we spent most of our time on the spacious balcony. The view of the bay was amazing. Location is perfect for bus stop, train is 10 minute walk. Lots of eating places nearby and a delightful bakery for your morning pastries. Good communication from hosts throughout and our deposit was refunded a week later.
One week spent here in June. The view from the balcony is stunning. The Apartment has everything you need for your stay. There is a busy road outside but this really didnât bother us at all. We loved eating out every night at the harbour which is a 10 minute walk away. Shops, bar and fabulous cake shop all minutes away. The train station is a 10 minute walk away and the train travel is fast and cheap. Our only issue was works being carried out in another appartment upstairs but thereâs nothing that can be done about that and it takes nothing away from this lovely place and itâs surroundings
This flat is as beautiful as the photos. We stayed here a week and felt like locals. It was perfectly appointed. We shopped, we cooked we couldnât have asked for more. Tim and Catherine were very responsive and very friendly we felt as if we were âborrowing â a friends place. the bus, right outside the door, runs from Monaco to Saint Tropez as does the train which is an easy walking distance. The building felt very safe,we came home very late a couple of nights and felt perfectly comfortable. Home away only provides for five stars, we would give it TEN! We just got home and we are already planning our return.
I had the pleasure of staying in this charming studio apartment for one month while I studied at the nearby Institut de Francais. The apartment was very clean and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen and nice bathroom/shower. The view of Villefranche Bay is spectacular and I enjoyed watching the sun rise every morning from the large french-door/windows. The apt. location is perfect as it is close to the bus stop, train station, and the historic Old Town. There is also a nearby park with a farmer's market each Saturday and a small grocery market around the corner. I would also recommend this if you are planning on attending the Institute as it was an easy walk up the hill to the school (5-10 minutes).
The booking was easy and the owners Tim and Catherine were extremely responsive to any questions and checked in throughout my stay to ensure all was going well. The other residents of the apartment building were also very friendly and helpful and it's a completely safe (and clean) building with secure access.
Villefranche is a great location to stay while you enjoy the sights around the Riviera. It's a very quick bus ride or train ride to Nice and Monaco/Monte Carlo as well as other places along the coast. I highly recommend this apartment for your next holiday adventure!
