L'estelan Villa, Grasse
7 bedroom Villa in Provence. Sleeps 14
With views to the spectacular villages of Cabris and Speracedes from the pool, L'Estelan is a large property nestling at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just a few minutes drive from Peymeinade that offers excellent amenities as well as cafes and restaurants. With its flexible accommodation for different group sizes, over three floors L'Estelan makes a wonderful choice for stress-free holidays.
Tastefully renovated in light colours, this spacious villa is set over three floors in a picturesque hillside location. Thoughtfully designed, it combines original wooden features, white-washed walls, and tiled floors. The ground floor is cool and airy, with doors from the living room leading to a wonderful covered terrace, perfect for leisurely lunches and easy evening meals. Upstairs, a charming tropezienne sun terrace awaits, ideal for an early morning coffee or some quiet sunbathing with a good book.
Perfect for larger groups or two families, the lower ground floor offers additional independence, with a breakfast kitchenette (complete with hob and fridge), three bedrooms, and two more bathrooms. These rooms remain cool and comfortable even in the summer heat.
The villa is surrounded by enclosed gardens, mainly terraced and adorned with mature trees and Provençal shrubs. Stepping out from the kitchen, you'll find the good-sized pool and terrace, equipped with sun loungers and a BBQ – perfect for relaxing in the sun.
The hilltop village of Cabris, just 7.5km away, offers a charming spot for lunch in the square and browsing boutiques and gift shops. Speracedes (6km) is also worth a visit, and the town of Peymeinade (3.5km) has a supermarket and a selection of restaurants. Head east to Grasse (9.5km), where you can explore the history of perfume at the town’s famous perfumeries.
