Maison Tintin
About This Villa
Whether you are seeking the great outdoors, archetypal hilltop villages or Côte d'Azur beaches, Maison Tintin enjoys an enviable setting close to a superb golf course and the historic town of Valbonne, within a stone’s throw from the glamour of the French Riviera.
The owners have added their own personality to this delightful holiday home which is filled with warmth and colour. There are three pretty doubles downstairs as well as a children’s bedroom whilst on a mezzanine level you will find a master bedroom with its own lovely bathroom.
The inviting living room is a comfortable space with glorious windows opening out to an al-fresco lounge, just perfect for warm summer days with a glass of Côtes de Provence as you look out over the woodland and valleys beyond.
Appreciate the serene ambience in the colourful gardens filled with lavender, oleander and agapanthuses and swim in the fantastic pool with such lovely surroundings. There is space to play around the lawns, find a quiet spot in the shade of the trees or join family and friends to dine al-fresco on the picturesque terrace. Outside, it feels like your own idyllic corner of southern France.
Golf-lovers need to drive just a few minutes up the road to reach a well-regarded 18-hole course, one of the many to be found across this region, whilst those who prefer pretty shops and charming cafes can head to Valbonne, an enchanting medieval town with the most alluring Provençal market on a Friday morning.
The shores of the Mediterranean are just 16km away with beaches and watersports as well as glitzy towns such as Antibes and Cannes close by. Or spend time exploring the beautiful landscapes of hills and olive groves, walking through forests or hiking along rivers. The perfume capital of France, Grasse, is not to be missed, nor are the flower-filled villages of Mougins and Biot.
Sample some of the region’s exquisite olive oil in Opio, dine in excellent restaurants in Cannes or kick back with a cocktail in Juan Les Pins. No matter where you find yourself, there are so many wonderful experiences across the French Riviera.
