"House fantastic and very comfortable. Weather much better than we ever hoped! A beautiful 2 weeks- just what we had looked forward to."

"This holiday house in Grasse had all we wanted for a great family vacation, the rooms were large and light and very clean, as were the bathrooms. The swimming pool is gorgeous ! Loved the fountain.The kitchen had all the equipment ,although we used the Bar b que most lunch times.
Will definately be back. Thanks."


"The house is just as was described- only better! Grasse had so many small restaurants, we hardly ever cooked. We didn't want to leave !"
