Great Pool and amazing view

We stayed in August during a very hot 35 degrees and it was fantastic to have such a lovely pool to keep us cool and entertained. After a walk to the bakery (20 mins each way), I looked forward to the swim as a reward. The property is on a hill with beautiful views and a nice breeze coming off the sea. You can just about see Antibes and Cannes and you get a nice fireworks display during August. The villa has plenty of space and different seating areas. We loved reading in the pool/BBQ outdoor house and eating outside at the table overlooking the pool. You definitely need a car but we found a lovely restaurant in Opio that is just about walkable (15 mins) We were a family of 4 so there is plenty of room and the ground and 1st floor bedrooms are comfortable and have a/c. The shower in the main ground floor bedroom was the best and the whole family preferred using that. Tbh, we didn't like the downstairs bedroom as it felt like a basement. The owners live in this house and move out when it is rented (rather than it being designed as a rental) and as a result, everything works and flows well. If you are looking for a villa near Opio I would certainly look at this one.

Wonderful week at an amazing villa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this fabulous villa. The photos on BVBO are all accurate - but still don't do the home justice; the breadth of the open view south towards and over the sea from the house and various terraces are breathtaking. Lynda and Chris are the nicest, most helpful hosts we have had yet on a VRBO villa-- and really contributed to us enjoying our stay. We thoroughly recommend this villa and hope to return ourselves!

Amazing villa with a world class view

We stayed at Villa Lorraine for a week at the end of July. Lynda and Chris the owners were great explaining the house and all the best places and walks in the local area. We spent almost every waking hour either in the amazing kitchen (which has everything you would have in your home - not the standard minimum of most holiday lets) in or around the pool, at the pool house, or at one of the outside tables for dining. All facilities are first rate including the table tennis table. The local areas has some nice restaurants and markets so we didn’t need to go further than a few miles all week. Overall a great week spent relaxing in the Provence countryside.

Villa Loraine

We had a fantastic 11 days at Villa Loraine. The property was very comfortable and very well maintained. The views from the terrace were amazing. Everything we needed was provided., and minor issues were fixed ASAP. We were all sad to leave. We would definitely recommend a stay here. Thank you to our hosts Lynda and Chris

About the host

Hosted by Lynda Richards

We moved to this area in 1999 and never left! The region has lots to offer for a family in all seasons and has a great mix of interesting people. We have two children and we work in the area.

Why they chose this property

This villa has great views, it has a very functional layout both inside and outside and it is quite private. However, it is still close to schools, shops and local amenities.
We also love the garden and all the olive trees.
After looking for the perfect villa for 18 months we fell in love with Villa Lorraine immediately.

What makes this property unique

Sunshine all day, an elevated position overlooking the woods and views to the sea. It's also very peaceful, private and relaxing but within easy reach of Antibes, Nice, Canes and Monaco.
The lively village of Valbonne is a 5 minute drive away or for those who are more energetic, one can walk there.
