La Maison de Laurence is a charming country retreat within 20km to everything. St. Paul de Vence, beaches, skiing, Nice and the Riviera, fabulous hikes and waterfalls. Italy is just beyond.

Located on 4 acres of terraced land with fabulous views over the valley, la maison de Laurence is an old Bergerieand gardens lovingly restored over 20 years by Laurence and her family.

Nestled at the end of an abandoned railroad track under the benevolent gaze of the majestic "Baou" and hill village of St Jeannet, secretly lies La Maison de Laurence.

The location itself is wonderful! Walk down the abandoned railroad track, through a tunnel where a majestic railway bridge suddenly appears.

Reminiscent of the golden age of steam, it towers commandingly over the Cagne. Walk to the middle for an incredible view, or nip around behind the bridge down to the dappled sunlight of the Cagne. where a swimming hole invites and great boulders soak up the sun to reward the intrepid swimmer.

Follow the verdant stream down to the road where you will find a trout farm. There, purchase some fresh fish which later you will barbeque under the olive trees on your patio accompanied by fresh herbs and lemons from the garden. Maybe tomorrow you will explore the other direction. 5 minutes to historic VENCE. A beautiful village with ample shopping, market, cafes, restaurants, museums, galleries and more.
