cote d'azur - france rentals

THE AREA
In southern France, in the hills behind the Cote d'Azur, lies a region known for its picturesque landscape and medieval villages; Renoir and Matisse painted here, attracted by the quality of the light. Midway between Grasse and Vence in the heart of this region, you'll find the Villa La Cascade, a vacation residence of unusual beauty and luxury.

THE PROPERTIES
The house contains two apartments (each rented separately), both with exquisite furnishings selected by the artist owners, including many antiques. The Garden Apartment and the first-floor Chaussee Apartment both have terraces overlooking the cascading River Loup, and offer wonderful views of the dramatic river gorge. Poised between the fabled allure of the Riviera and the simple pleasures of French country life, the Villa is a place to savor for its own sake. And with its cafés and tabac, La Cascade's own village of Pont-du-Loup is a glimpse of traditional France.
