An excellent traditional French house in a quiet area
Lou Paradou-fulfilled all our dreams, aspirations, and plans during our 3 - week stay in August 2024. This is a special and spacious place for family and friends to gather and enjoy the beauty of the Villa and the privacy the surrounding grounds afford,. It is very well equipped with everything you need and has a beautiful full size pool that adults and children relished. This is our third visit to Vence over the years and has become a real favourite with family and friends-particularly Lou Paradou! There is much to do and see and is such an inspirational place to live, eat out and relax in the beauty of the whole area. Many thanks to Elizabeth and David for being excellent hosts both before and during our stay. With best wishes from Macfarlane family.
We had a fabulous time exploring this part of France, and that was definitely helped by having this wonderful home to base ourselves from. The region is just glorious with lots to do including gully bashing/rock caving, visiting medieval villages, history and of course lots of opportunities to swim. The house itself is very comfortable, is obviously well loved and has a lovely French charm to it. The pool was excellent and we spent hours in there. Its a great size and perfect for larger groups too. We walked into Vence every day for breakfast and dinner (don''t miss the almond craqalin - its incredible!) and although it is up a slight hill, its a super easy walk - absolutely no issue for younger kids too. The hosts were so kind, attentive and really helpful. They went out of their way to provide us with information about local bus routes and things to do, and were just all round lovely - thank you for helping make our stay really easy and that extra bit special. Le Clerc Supermarket was a 4 min drive away, and had everything you needed for self catering purposes. There is also a petrol station 1 min away. We would absolutely recommend this place, and would love to come back ourselves one day when we next visit this amazing part of France.
The location was very good and allowed walking into the town quite easily and also to access other villages was straight forward and in easy reach. The setting of the property was ideal for a family, with the play area and pools for the children and adults alike and lots of space for family barbeques and eating.
Vi havde en skøn ferie i denne dejlige villa. Huset er meget charmerende og indretningen virkelig flot. Poolen er stor nok til hele familien, vi var seks voksne og et barn, og der er kun kort gåafstand til den gamle by og gode indkøbsmuligheder tæt på. Kan kun anbefales varmt
date of stay 7 July 2017 We enjoyed a great family holiday in this charming home. It really felt like a home, not just a holiday rental. It matched up to the photos and description very well, but was even more charming in real life. It is a very spacious house and as we were 9 people we had plenty of space both indoors and outdoors. There are so many options of where to enjoy the outside space - we had a yoga session on the lawn each morning whilst the kids played in the pool, and others had leisurely breakfast just above outside the kitchen under the olive tree. The trees and flowers were very beautiful all around the house. The pool is as described, a large rectangular shape so great for proper length swimming and easy for all ages to get in and out of. The sitting room is very large with many different areas to enjoy in it - tv watching, reading corner, large table and chairs. A very calming atmosphere and cool. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed and in great quantities too! There were plenty of sun loungers/cushions/chairs and tables etc for our large group. We felt the house inside was shaded enough to not miss air conditioning. Personally I prefer no air conditioning where possible and the fans in the bedrooms were more than adequate. Just the kids room upstairs does require the air con - which was provided. The house is perfectly located in Vence too. It is great for going by car to discover the region as it is only 2 mins to the roundabout that leads to the coast or further inland to places like Paul de Vence or Grasse. It is only 5 mins drive to the large supermarket Leclerc which was perfect as we had BBQ nearly every night! And it is only a 5 minute walk to the free shuttle bus that can take you into town - for elderly guests or small children this was very convenient. Alternatively it is only a 10minute walk into town anyway. We went in to Vence a few times but were much happier to have our meals at the house as we had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. The house feels like it has been lived in like a home, with character and decoration throughout. Personally I prefer this than a modern type villa with no personality. Also in relation to the price it is good value for money for this area and with the space all around and the pool, we couldn't have asked for more on our special family holiday!Response
