Amazing apartment in a perfect location
About the Owner
About Clare Charlesworth
As a couple, we have loved visiting Nice for many years and decided in 2013 to buy and renovate an apartment as our second home which we would love to share with you.
We enjoy spending as much time in Nice as we can and particularly enjoy leisurely walks along the Prom, the views from the Chateau, eating at the Cours Salaya or Place Garibaldi and whiling away the hours people-watching from one of the many bars and restaurants.
We are sure you will love Nice as much as we do.

Guestbook comments from the owner
Dear Mr and Mrs. Charlesworth,
My husband and I had a wonderful time visiting Nice and region and staying in your lovely apartment. The apartment was comfortable, with everything we needed close at hand. Claire was lovely and she gave us a warm welcome. We appreciated her being available right away via cell phone when I needed help finding the hair dryer. The neighborhood is wonderful as well, with little grocery stores, including a “bio” market, as well as good restaurants close by. We had a small dinner party with my two brothers and their wives, who were staying in a nearby hotel, so all of us were able to enjoy the ambiance of the apartment one evening.
I visit France often and will think of your apartment when planning a future visit.
All the best,

The apartment was beautiful - So close to the Promenade des Anglais and just a short stroll to the old town. Perfect to come back to every night, whether it was cooking a meal in the amazing kitchen or having a glass of wine on the balcony. Couldn't recommend it enough for a stay in Nice!

A beautiful apartment - clean, comfortable with lovely furnishings. There was milk, tea, coffee and a bottle of wine on our arrival - everything we needed to relax and settle in after a long flight. We felt at home straight away. Claire was very helpful and accommodated our special needs requirements. And what a great location! A perfect few days in a perfect apartment.
