Home description
On the outskirts of the historic old town of Vence, just to the west of Nice, this one bedroom apartment is set in a beautifully renovated 1850's soap factory, and is just 100 metres walk to the shops and restaurants.
This beautiful, spacious one bedroom apartment is located near to the 13th century "portail Levis" area of the historic town of Vence. There are several other individually decorated apartments in this charming old villa so if you are going as a group, ask us for details and availability of the other apartments.
The villa is set in the middle of a large and quiet Mediterranean garden - approximately 3600 square metres on different levels with palm trees, cypresses, bougainvillea, mimosa and roses. The heart of the house was built in the middle of the 19th century and all rooms are light and airy, some fitted out in typical Provencal style with French doors and shutters.
