About the home

This beautiful two-bedroom apartment was recently renovated and has quality furniture throughout.
It is on an upper floor of a converted monastery in the heart of the Old Town. The location could not be better; a 5 minute stroll to the beach, next to Place Rosetti and amid the vibrancy of Vieux Nice - but on a residential street, which means it is quiet enough to avoid excessive noise.

Stylishly decorated throughout with quality modern furniture. The lounge-diner features the traditional nicoise colours of red and black and has a three seater sofa, large armchair, flat screen TV with DVD player and a large dining table with chairs for four. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need, including a washing machine and dishwasher, to remove all the stresses from your holiday.

The separate bedrooms mean this apartment really is suitable for up to four adults. Both rooms have comfortable double beds and plenty of storage space. The main bedroom has a ceiling fan, ipod docking system and large wardrobe.

The Italian designed bathroom with separate bath and shower adds even more chic to the apartment.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region

Nice is located in the South-Eastern corner of France, close to the border with Italy. The area is known as the Cote d'Azur because of its beautiful blue waters which make this part of the Mediterranean very special.

Nice is easy to reach by plane from the UK (approx. 1h45).

Geographically located in a prime spot, Nice is a twenty minute train ride to Monaco, forty-five minutes into Italy, thirty minutes in the other direction to Cannes and St Tropez is accessible by boat. It is also only a two hours to the southern Alps (ski resort of Isola & Auron) and a two hour ferry ride to Corsica. (All times are approximations.)

The Nice / Vieux Nice area

In recent years Nice has become the centre of the Cote d'Azur and possibly the main tourist destination in southern France. Major rebuilding work over the past couple of years has turned the city into an idyl for sun lovers and adventure seekers alike. The new tram system and expanded pedestrianised zones have transformed the city centre into a quieter people-friendly environment.

The Old Town (Vieux Nice) is at the end of the Promenade Anglais and overlooks the beach. This is the real centre of Nice, and will definitely be the focal point of your holiday, which is why it makes sense to stay within the narrow network of streets. You will spend many hours strolling through the alleys, admiring the architecture, shopping in the variety of shops, eating in the diverse restaurants, and wandering through the selection of markets in the Cours Saleya.

Activities in the area: Shopping, Art and Culture, Antiques, Eating, Drinking, Partying, Promenading, Relaxing, Wine Tasting, Homes of the Rich and Famous, Yachts, Boat Trips, Scuba, & Sunbathing!

“Excellent location” This property was comfortable and well furnished and situated in the old quarter which gave it a lot of character. I would have liked a better equipped kitchen as I prefer eating in for the main evening meal to going out - but we managed. As a "senior", the main drawback for me were the 80+ steps from the front door to the apartment door. To be fair the owner warned me when I made the booking enquiry, but I thought I could cope. I did, but with difficulty, especially with the luggage. The main attraction is the location - very close to the Cours Saleya , beach etc..
