The Experience

Emerging from glorious countryside, the sight of low-slung seating, colourful cushions and a garden full of flowers and fruit trees is an inviting introduction to a superbly stylish villa. And outdoors, by the fantastic pool, is where you’ll want to remain – in tranquillity, after a swim and a barbecue. Then pad back up terraces to gîte or studio, each classy and open-plan, mixing vivid Provençal colours with cool stone walls and immaculate tiles; rooms are airy and bathrooms, in wood or stone, are thoroughly luxurious. Children will love climbing the ladder to their mezzanine bedroom; they can stroke the friendly chickens and collect eggs too! The kitchens are equipped with all that a chef needs after a day exploring the Côte d’Azur; the gardens have lots of little places to eat and sit – stone tables and recesses for an apéro, dinner, card games – and are beautifully illuminated at night. This villa is imbued with the grace and impeccable taste of Carole and Max; so fine was his handiwork on the reproduction stone it resembles the craftsmanship of medieval Saint-Jeannet, a 15-minute stroll.

Reviews

femke, amsterdam

We had a really lovely stay at the beautiful poolhouse. Carole gave us a warm welcome and she gave us all the help we needed but also all the privacy we wanted. The swimming pool was everything we could have hoped for with the kids, they didn't want to go anywhere else anymore. So we had a great time in the beautiful private garden and pool. The location is perfect for day trips, very close to Nice and other nice beaches, and Saint Paul de Vence with its beautiful museum. So to make things short....Thumbs up for this house!

We have stayed in many places in the South of France but this surpassed them all! We relaxed in a way we haven't for a long time on holiday. For us, it was the privacy and standards worthy of a first class hotel. From the beautifully equipped pool house, with spa like bathroom (which the owners use for their extended family, so you feel like family, not just a paying guest), to the quiet breakfasts on one of the many fabulous terraces, amongst gardens worthy of a place in the Chelsea Flower Show. Bliss! Close enough to Italy and the delights of the Riviera but without all the hassle.


Graham & Kate, Carnforth

We spent a wonderful week in the studio apartment at Villa L'Escalinado - the accommodation was all that we could wish for (especially our private terrace with amazing views over the stunning gardens) and we received a very warm and helpful welcome from Carole. We also made good use of the beautiful swimming pool and particularly enjoyed the Villa's proximity to the charming village of Saint-Jeannet, which is quiet and peaceful and well hidden away from the bustle of Nice. Given the standard of the accommodation and the surroundings, we thought this extremely good value for money.


Raluca, Ubstadt-Weiher

We spent 8 days in paradise. This estate is so wonderful that you don't feel like leaving it , not even to visit the surrounding area which is indeed very beautiful. We stayed in the pool house which is very spacious and clean. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything one might need for short or long stays. The garden is big and full of flowers, the ideal place to enjoy a drink or a read. The pool is awesome and the water was warm enough for swimming even in May. Carole and her husband are excellent hosts, very communicative, but discreet at the same time. That's really the place to be!


Lynne, Gateshead

My husband and two grown daughters stayed at Lescalinado for two perfect weeks. The villa and the studio are beautiful and the holiday was extremely relaxing. The pool is amazing and the facilities including barbecue area are excellent. Carole is a wonderful host as is Helene who looks after the grounds and property. The villa is set amongst tall trees and the sound of the birds whilst swimming in the pool was lovely. St Jeannet is pretty as are the lovely villages in the surrounding area. A most beautiful part of France and we would highly recommend this holiday property
