Charming air-conditioned country house with swimming pool in a green setting in Valbonne



Situated in the sought-after commune of Valbonne, just a stone's throw from the Mouratouglou Tennis Academy, La Bastide des Macarons is part family home, part holiday villa, and will win you over with its meticulous decor, antique materials and numerous travel souvenirs. You'll be won over by its unique, peaceful atmosphere.
Within the grounds of the property, you'll have plenty of time to let yourself be lulled by birdsong and the morning run of squirrels, which you can watch from one of the poolside terraces.
Just a stone's throw from the coast, you'll be able to combine a day at sea with enjoying the evenings on the Riviera, unless you're seduced by the charm of the village, whose quality of life makes it the leading commune in the Alpes Maritimes.
This single-storey, fully air-conditioned villa has a very cosy living area, with a large lounge with fireplace; the double kitchen opens onto a large terrace which adjoins a beautiful Balinese-style swimming pool (9m x 4m). A pool house completes the space, ideal for dining and relaxing with family or friends.
La Bastide has 4 bedrooms with French-style ceilings,
2 double bedrooms with 160 cmcm beds
1 smaller bedroom with a 140 cm bed for an adult or 2 children
1 master bedroom, en suite with dressing room, overlooking the garden, swimming pool and small private terrace.
With a large garden planted with ancient olive trees, this villa smells of Provence. In the garden, planted with trees and flowers, you'll find a little bench here, and pots of flowers with Mediterranean essences there... a place to indulge in the traditional game of pétanque at the end of the day! The jasmine and lavender diffuse their delicate scents.
Valbonne is a small, authentic village where the art of living reigns supreme. Just 20 minutes from the beaches, Nice and Antibes, it's easy to explore the surrounding area and discover activities to suit everyone, whether you prefer the sea or the mountains.
Depending on your aspirations, there are many activities to discover in Valbonne, including golf, the forest with the Parc de la Valmasque, trails for jogging, mountain biking, the Gorges du Loup, the Friday market that is very popular in the region, and evenings in the typical Place des Arcades.
Cannes, La croisette, Antibes with its harbour and large units, the old town and Nice are all nearby.
Nearby, a small shopping centre with all the usual shops, bakery, grocery, chemist, doctors.

During your stay you can stroll through the markets of the neighbouring villages, Biot with its farmers' market and glass-blowers, Vallauris for ceramics, Grasse, the city of perfumes, and St Paul where the greatest painters have stopped, inspired by the unique light and colours...

A gorgeous and charming base to explore and recharge….
Stephanie and Fabrice’s beautiful, charming and delightfully unique house close to Valbonne was the perfect base for our family trip to the South of France. Beautifully appointed, clean and with an amazing outside space to swim, lounge and dine this was a great base to explore Monaco, Nice, Cannes, St Tropez and Antibes, all within easy driving distance. Nothing really to fault this property and the hosts who were not too far away if there were any problems. We were met at the property and Stephanie gave us a tour and loads of tips and restaurant recommendations to try out….nothing too much trouble. First class….would not hesitate to return.

Very nice villa in the South
We booked this villa as a last minute gateway for our family and we really enjoyed our stay! Stephanie and Fabrice are great hosts, who waited for us until very late hours due to big delay at the airport. The villa is located in a small village, about 30 minutes drive from Nice Airport. There's local supermarket within 10 minutes walk, small bakery and a very nice family run French cafe. The villa is very stylish with plenty of cool features. The pool is amazing, quite large and modern, although we didn't use it much due to the fact that most of us had colds sadly. We found the area very safe, and it was very important for us due to some past experience. Would definitely come and stay again - very much recommended!

Authentic French Villa - awesome pool area
This villa is an authentic French villa. Bathrooms have been updated and the 4th bedroom has been tastefully added to match the rest of the house. The kitchen is authentic and functional with everything you need. The standout is the pool area. The land is elevated so the view is beautiful and the morning sun rises are so tranquil and peaceful. Sunny afternoons were spent swimming and lazing on the lounges after a morning of touring and often evenings were spent eating outside too. This area really was usable sunrise to sunset. The property is secluded, quiet and peaceful. We found it very relaxing and it provided a great retreat to unwind after a busy day of touring. It is easily accessible to Antibes, Cannes and Nice. The local town of Valbonne is very cute and good for meals when you need a day off touring. It is also close to Saint Paul de Vence which is a gorgeous town not to be missed. There is a supermarket and pharmacy about 500m away too. Host Stephanie met us at the property and showed us through the house. During our stay Stephanie was very responsive and helpful with advice on local sights to see. We really enjoyed our stay here. Thank you Stephanie and Fabrice.

De beaux extérieurs mais bastide peu confortable
De beaux extérieurs, joli jardin et belle piscine bastide peu confortable chemin d’accès à la maison étroit et non carrossable, avec des haies non taillées qui rayent les voitures (chemin long de 100 mètres traversant une habitation privée) Les portes intérieures sont relativement basses pour les personnes de taille standard La porte d’une salle d’eau avec wc qui donne dans l’entrée n’a pas de verrou. Il n’y a pas de rideau occultant dans les chambres Il n’y a pas de rangement dans les chambres pour y déposer nos vêtements. Passage du personnel d’entretien à 9h le jeudi et le vendredi
