Your Own Private Resort
This is a one of a kind property. The view is magnificent and the house is a treasure trove of paintings, antiques, books and hats! Our family of 6 adults and 2 toddlers (ages 3 and 1) enjoyed swimming, ping pong and boules. We also went on day trips to Cannes, Monaco, Grasse and Gorges du Verdon. Lunch or dinner at Auberge de la Chêvre d'Or in Cabris is highly recommended. Grocery shopping is only 10 minutes away in Peymeinade. Our visit the first week of June was very pleasant but we did encounter mosquitoes. The washing machines and dryers were a bonus. Looking back on our visit we wish we spent more time at the house to be able to enjoy all it has to offer.

The Villa was delightful! There is more than enough space to spread out or come together. We were a group of eight and never felt crowded. The beautiful kitchen was extremely well equipped and a great daily hang out. The expansive outdoor pavilion and terrace became the heart of our stay-the heat lamps made outdoor dining on cool evenings perfect. Please note the bedrooms are spread over 3 floors and the Villa does have a number of stairs-both inside and out; this may be a bit challenging for some. The location in the hills overlooking Cannes is stunning, however the tricky-narrow winding roads with switchbacks require extra caution while driving. Walking to the nearby villages is doable-but much of it is uphill.

An incredible villa perfect for a large group
We booked a stay here with a group of friends and family. The location was spectacular with views over the hills towards the sea at Cannes and Lac de Saint Cassien but it was very easy to reach from Nice Airport. Cabris and Grasse were very close and Mougins, Cannes and Antibes a short drive away. Peaceful surroundings yet not isolated, we enjoyed spending a lot of time in the lovely pool, boule area and the terrace and cabana made outdoor living easy. With the location, facilities and style, it was definitely worth it and we would definitely choose to return.

The very best place to celebrate a milestone birthday
It's hard to imagine we could have found a better place to celebrate. The villa was everything we had hoped and more. The views alone are simply glorious; from hill-top Cabris, across to Cannes and to the lake in the West we could enjoy sun rises, sun sets, lazy, sunny days around the pool and dinners and card playing into the evenings under the cabana. The location gave us everything we needed being only 35 minutes from Nice airport but sufficiently private that we felt truly relaxed. Being within 20 - 25 minutes drive of Cannes, Antibes, Mougins, the lake and having Grasse even closer meant we could explore in a leisurely way and in smaller or larger groups depending on the kind of day we each wanted. The nearby town of Cabris has a lot to offer too. The restaurants, boulangerie and little ice cream truck were lovely and although we were technically out of season, they were open at their usual times, well attended/supported by locals and far less busy than those in Cannes and Antibes. The villa was excellent. Luxurious, spacious but very comfortable too. It quickly felt like home and absorbed our group of 10 with ease. We'd love to return to the area and villa as we felt we only really scratched the surface

Lovely villa for friends celebration
It's a gorgeous villa set with a beautiful view of the French Riviera. The house was well appointed and the hosts were helpful and fast in responding to questions. We were a group of girls coming from USA and the house was appreciated by all. The house is set in a tiny village and you can walk there for fresh bread and coffee in the morning but the closest town for dinner isn't a comfortable walk. It is a house best suited for those with a car and those who want to relax by the lovely garden/pool/terrace. We did find the house be a bit more remote than expected so adjusted our day trips accordingly. The house offers gorgeous views, lots of lounging spaces and comfortable beds. It was a lovely place to gather friends.

Idyllic property and location. Even better than our last visit!!
I didn't think it was possible to actually improve this property but the owners have done so since our last visit two years ago. Oh my goodness, it was soooo good to be back at this beautiful property. Since our last visit, there are new bathrooms, a new, wonderfully equipped kitchen, a new and stunning outside huge terrace and the swimming pool area has been increased and landscaped including a pétanque area which was enjoyed by all. Lovely to be back in those wonderfully comfortable beds too. Enjoyed eating out at restaurants nearby and highly recommend Keller Place a short drive away in Antibes, Vieux Chateau in Cabris and La Place de Mougin in Mougin. Cannot wait to return to this stunning property, a very special and luxurious hideaway with so many wonderful places to explore and enjoy close-by. We left feeling utterly restored and revitalised albeit full of too much local, delicious rose, cheese and croissants!!! Thank you.

Amazing
We have stayed at many places over the years and have to highlight this property. The sun set and sun rise will stay in the memory bank. We were provided full details on arrival. The bedrooms were 5* and was not expecting towelling robes and shampoo/ conditioner ~lovely touch. Have to say, this is more like staying in a boutique hotel. And the pool~ don’t need to say much apart from warm, clean and chlorine free and sun-loungers super comfy. Kitchen, crockery, sonsos speakers truly made it for us. My daughters have already asked for holiday next year- same place. Rustic, modern twist and just fab. Owners have it spot on. Don’t forget Cabris up the hill, Mougin, Grasse and so many other places to visit. Parfait pour tout le monde. Merci

Heaven on earth!
The house is in a stunning location, beautifully appointed and pure luxury. From the balcony and terraces of the villa you have amazing views of the surrounding countryside reaching to the South of France coastline. I couldn’t take my eyes of the endless changing skies, from glorious sunrise to sunset. The owners had obviously gone out of their way to make our stay both luxurious, comforting, and relaxing, from soft plush bedding and towels to heated pool. Thank you to Chris and Damian!

Family holiday in Speracedes!
We booked this villa during the pandemic and had to change our dates due to the restrictions. The owners were exceptionally understanding and accommodating. Ahead of arrival the villa manager made contact and was extremely helpful in making restaurant suggestions, reservations and arranging transfers etc. On arrival we were given a comprehensive tour of the villa and all its amenities. We absolutely loved every minute of our family holiday at this villa and had no need to leave apart from for food shopping. However, with a car, there would be plenty of places to visit in the surrounding area if we had wished. We particularly enjoyed the covered outdoor space where we ate all meals and had table tennis tournaments. This villa is special and will hold many amazing memories for our family. In our opinion it is a jewel and particularly for visitors who appreciate traditional french surroundings, it’s a must. Thank you to Damian & Chris who have clearly endeavoured to think of every detail. We would definitely return! Michel, Kim & Family

Glamorous holiday home!
We spent a few days at this glorious villa in Spéracèdes over the recent half-term. The villa is located close to Grasse, with Cannes and Nice both readily accessible. The property has been beautifully appointed and feels very spacious, with an amazing kitchen having recently been installed that was very well equipped. The stand out part of our stay here was undoubtedly the most stunning panoramic views from many parts of the property and grounds, with those from the new outside dining and lounge area in the Cabana being the most breathtaking! Thanks for a fantastic stay and would certainly recommend to those looking for a relaxing break in glamorous surroundings. We're already thinking about returning next summer for our family holiday!
