Villa l'Escalinado

We had a lovely short break up near the village of Saint-Jeannet. Carole was lovely and immensely helpful. The pool house is in a wonderfully peaceful setting, ideal to escape the stresses of modern life. Perfect location to plan a trip to Vignoble Rasse, only a 15min walk away. Also, there are chickens. Fantastic stay, we will definitely be coming back next time we are in Nice.

Had a wonderful week here! The pool was beautiful - we couldn’t get the kids out!! The villa setting was private and peaceful! Carole was very friendly and helpful in planning our logistics without a car. Must see - the village of Saint-Paul-de -Vence which Carole recommended!!! The kids didn’t want to leave :) Would love to come back - thank you!

We enjoyed a lovely week at L’Escalinado (in early Sep) - renting pool house and studio between 5 of us. The units are separated by steep path but share fabulous pool area - ideal for diving and relaxing – and beautifully lit at night. St-Jeannet itself sits in the hills north of Nice - the location feels residential rather than rural (a good feature). We had rental car to explore the area and to access the village. (A smaller car perhaps useful for narrow streets and mountain roads.) The hosts are so welcoming and helpful. Time passed quickly and we would love to have stayed longer.

We had a magnificent time at Villa l'Escalinado staying in the pool house and studio with a family of 5 (with Granny in tow). It had everything you need for a relaxing stay with the various terraces, nooks and crannies providing ample space to relax without being on top of eachother. We explored the gorgeous villages nearby and ventured to the beaches and seaside towns of the Côte d’Azur, whilst also spending time by the pool. The kids loved it, we loved it and we wished we stayed longer. Carole is a brilliant host; attentive, communicative but yet offers you privacy to enjoy your stay.

Two glorious weeks at Villa l’Escalinado. The Pool House was ideal for three adults. Fully equipped, incl air con. Carole and Max are perfect hosts - couldn’t be more helpful and friendly. Carole’s English is excellent. The pool is fab. Long enough to swim and deep enough to dive. Peaceful with loads of space and trees which offer some shade. One bit of the village is a less than a mile walk and has a boulangerie, supermarket, bars and restaurants. The old village is perched on the side of the mountain, a 30 min beautiful walk along back streets. The views are worth it. Can't wait to return.
