The area has beautiful scenery and is very residential with hill
walks and bike trails in the Esterel National Park directly behind
the villa domaine. There is one local general store within a 10
minute walk, and some very good restaurants in the bay nearby of
La Figuerette and even more shops and boutiques in Théoule
sur Mer village, which is only a 15 minute drive or a pleasant
40 minute walk over the hills. Facilities in the bay include some
water sports, with Théoule providing parasailing, water
skiing and trips to the Iles de Lérins from the jetty or
trips along the Esterel coast. There are local bus & train
services giving access to the resorts along the coast, with the
local train station at Le Trayas only a 20 minute walk away. A
little further is Cannes with its chic atmosphere, Grasse and the
perfumeries, the perched hilltop villages of Tourrettes sur Loup
and Gourdon, Monaco is only just over an hour away and the same
to St Tropez…….an ideal location where the whole area
has so much to offer.
Les Deux Délices – offers the two delights of sun & sea,
with uninterrupted sea views from the south facing balcony & terrace.
The villa overlooks the unspoilt bay of La Figurette with its golden
sandy beach and amazing red rock coastal scenery – it is
just a 5 minute walk through the pleasant gardens of the domaine
to the beach, or to a secluded rocky cove. On the upper floor of
the villa is the kitchen, compact and well-equipped with dishwasher,
hob and electric oven and fridge/ freezer. This leads into the
large sunny salon with dining and sitting areas, and with a private
screened alcove with either a second sofa or convertible sofa bed
to make the occasional third bedroom. WC on this level. In the
salon there is a TV, radio/CD player, & plenty of books (English & French)
and large French windows opening onto a covered dining terrace
that has superb views and which is fully south-facing.
Accessed from the salon by a wooden spiral staircase is the main
double bedroom with en suite bathroom with WC, bath with shower
over and vanity basin that occupants of the third occasional bedroom
would share (except WC).
Going down to the lower terrace via the external steps, there
is an extremely large independent double bedroom/salon ( twin beds
) with a very spacious shower room with separate cubicle, WC, vanity
basin and washing machine. Small sitting area so that people could
be independent of the same party above. Breakfast tea-making facilities.
Large south-facing terrace in front of this section of the villa
with two loungers, cushions and parasol. Same panoramic views as
above.
There is a large parking space reserved near the villa, and a
shared small pool with sun-lounging areas, and ping pong table
and petanque area in the gardens. Private access gate to the domaine
and within 5 minute walking distance to restaurants, beach and
the one local supermarket. An ideal place for 2 couples to be independent,
family of 4 and grandparents - plenty of flexibiltity for 4 or
6 people.
