About this property

JdV Holidays Villa Lavande - 3-bedroom villa without pool in quiet area of Vence

This charming old villa with sunny gardens is set in the hillside in a quiet area of Vence and is one of my favourites!

Villa Lavande is tastefully furnished, with a large living/dining room, well-equipped kitchen, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a lovely sunny terrace bordered by lavender, extensive lawned gardens and private parking.

The villa is located in a quiet neighbourhood to the west of Vence town centre, and is approximately 30 minute walk from the town and all of its amenities.

This is a lovely place in which to base yourselves to relax, enjoy the old town of Vence, go walking or cycling in the hills or explore the many attractions of the Cote d’Azur.

This charming old villa comprises of entrance hall, opening into a spacious dining room with table and chairs, a tastefully furnished living room with fireplace, television, video, DVD & Hi-Fi and French doors opening out onto a dining-terrace with table and 6 chairs.

There is a small, but very well equipped kitchen with oven, gas hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer. There is also a washing machine within a downstairs cloakroom.

From the dining room there is a good-sized double bedroom with wardrobes and other antique furniture, and this bedroom has an elegant en-suite shower room with marble fittings and a WC.

From the living room there is an L-shaped bedroom/study, which has a single sofa bed. It is also possible to add a temporary foldaway bed to this room, suitable for children (please request). The downstairs cloakroom, with WC and hand basin, serves this bedroom.

Independent from the main house, there is a twin bedroom accessed via a staircase outside the front door. This room is ideal for those who want to have separate sleeping quarters e.g. teenagers, grandparents, or au pair. This bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with shower over a bath, toilet and hand basin, and it also has views towards the sea.

There are 2 baby-cots and a high chair available at this villa.

Outside, there are beautiful lawned gardens of approximately 1,100 square metres, bordered by lavender and Mediterranean plants and trees. The gardens are private, very peaceful and enclosed for children to play in. There is also a pretty wooden garden house with table and chairs. Please note: the owners do not permit barbeques in the garden here, as they consider them to be too much of a fire risk.

There is a garage and parking for 2 cars.

tired but pleasant
Living room furniture and main bed mattress were old and uncomfortable, and need replacing. Heating was not offered and it got chilly at night. Good value for money. Vence is lovely.

Good - nice and comfortable place to stay for 10 days. Location close to Vence, Saint Paul & Tourettes. Stone walls keep the internal temperature low. Baby cot was very good. A pool would be very welcomed. A deeper clear too. Otherwise - very pleasant! - Mr D. from Dubai, July 21.

Great holiday home!!! Looking forward to come back! The wonderful garden was the best feature! - Mr B. from Germany, July 20.

Villa pleine de charme au calme sur les hauteurs de Vence, ou nous avons passé 10 jours. Tout le nécessaire est à notre disposition, et tout est accessible rapidement (ville de Vence à 5min, plages de Cagnes à 20min...) La vue sur la mer depuis certains endroits est magique (chambre du haut par exemple). Nous avons pu profiter de la terrasse et du jardin, en étant attentif en fin de journée à se protéger contre les moustiques - Mr F. from France, Aug 20.

We spent a week in villa Lavande and had a great time. The nice owner Sonja received us and showed us around. The house is very tastefully decorated and has a beautiful garden with many places where you can sit. The house is also fully equipped inside a large gas stove and a nice oven, good showers, wifi. In addition, charming bedrooms and beautiful wall art. We really came to rest and at night you don`t hear anything. The house is located on the hills just outside Vence. The last part is steep by car, but you get used to it after a few times. A great base for trips in the area. Also thanks to Paul Rhodes for the fast and pleasant way of communicating! Beautiful villa and garden with great atmosphere. The beauty of the villa made you feel at rest, everything was perfect - Mr deB from the Netherlands, Aug 20.
