There were three major factors that appealed when purchasing the villa 4 years ago. It's location to the village - it is so easy to walk into the village, and the locals have been so welcoming to us since arriving in La Motte. Many are now friends - and there is everything you need in the village, yet three hyper markets are within five mins drive if a fan of the French large supermarkets.
We saw the property in January, on a cold sunny day, and even then the layout of the villa, built in an L shape around the pool was just perfect. It was large enough to entertain groups of friends, yet not so vast as unable to use it for two of us going out there. Parts of the Villa can easily be used whilst others kept shut off. The final factor was my love for the Cote D'Azur. As a family growing up we spent summers in the South of France and it has become a favourite destination of mine whenever I have time to go. We found the Villa was in an ideal position to explore the places were all the memories had been made in years gone by. Every time I visit I will go over to Italy, explore Menton, Monaco, Nice, Cannes and closer to home St Maxime and St Tropez.
The villa is ideal for relaxing by the pool all day and enjoying al fresco dinning as the sun goes down. We spent a great deal of time planning the garden lighting, so the days could go on and be enjoyed as night falls.
