Historic Menton

To visit this house is a truly authentic experience. Located in the historic old town. We loved it quirkiness, filled with vintage furniture and mementos, it is a true traditional family home. Due to its age it is quite dark but cool as the climate is beautiful. The house is on 4 floors and the main area is in the top floor to enable you to enjoy the marvellous view over the bay. Menton is not a large town and everything is in walking distance and a beautiful place to visit. Please be aware it would not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues as from the beach area, there are 150 steps up to the house and then up 4 floors to top. If you are fed up of bland hotels then this is certainly different and we loved our stay. Thank you to Dominique, our host who met us as we did get a bit lost and entrusted his lovely home to us. Love Cherrie and John

We felt privileged to stay in this house teeming with character in the old town. Lovely view of bay.

It’s a hop, step (well quite a few steps..) and a jump from the promenade, restaurants and up to magnificent view points. To be situated in this characterful house in the old town is a great privilege and makes for an authentic experience.

Brilliant property in a lovely place!

This house is brilliant. It is in a lovely quiet part of the old town, is spacious and has the most wonderful balcony. We spent a lot of time watching the world go by from the balcony. Dominique is very helpful and helped us arrange a number of activities and day trips in the local area. One key point to note is that the house is situated in the old town which requires climbing a large number of steps to get to, it is also situated over 4 floors so more stairs to climb! Not recommended to anyone with mobility issues. We would definitely stay here again!

Holiday High

Good holiday homes are hard to find, and this is no exception. Take sturdy shoes and a map. There is a climb of over 100 steep stone steps through Menton old town to the house, and another three dozen or so inside the house. The pedestrianised vieille ville dates from the renaissance period, a twisting labyrinth of narrow ochre and pink houses and stairways. When you reach the beautiful baroque basilica, you’re nearly there! Recuperate with a glass of wine on the balcony, with sublime views stretching across the sea to Italy, magnificent by day and super sparkling at night. I couldn’t persuade my partner to serenade me, but there was an excellent violinist neighbour who could be heard practising and next door’s cats were very friendly… This atmospheric old house is a convenient ten mins to the beach and five mins to town. There is plenty of room, spread over four floors. Abundant antiques, curios and books create a fascinating, quirky interior. Wi-fi 4Mb/s on top floor (living room). This place is touched with magic and we would recommend to anyone with the proviso that you do need to be reasonably fit to cope with the steps, it would not be suitable for anyone with a mobility problem, also the old town and house are quite dark so this could be an issue for anyone with a visual impairment.

A home from home

The house is in the old town and has all the charm of a beautiful old French home. The house is filled with beautiful furniture and antiques. The owner has thought of everything and provides all you could need for a self catering stay. The balcony has wonderful views across the bay and we spent most evenings sitting here watching the world go by. The house is across four floors so there are a lot of stairs and this would not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues. But if you wish a quiet holiday in Menton with a charming house and lovely views, then I highly recommend it.
