Finding the right gite in the right place can be a challenge. Let us help you !

The Metropole of Nice, its seaside, hinterland hills and snow-capped mountains .... Some would say that while the seaside is splendid, the hinterland is incredible!

So don't hesitate to seek out the calm of the nearby hinterland and reach the village of Saint-Jeannet, 15 km from the entrance to Nice.

This historic village dating back to the 11th century, perched on a hill 400 m above sea level, will delight you just as its vertical "baou" at 802 m above sea level will astonish you.

And it's at the foot of the village and its "baou" that you'll find our house and your gite.
