Great location, spacious, but needs better care
The location of the loft is ideal for those who want to be in the old city of Vence. it is steps away from one of the main city doors, and steps away from great restaurants and shops. The loft has a spacious living room with an open kitchen, which has good amenities. the bedroom is cramped. The views from the living room are great. the terrace upstairs has beautiful views, but it gets very hot during the day, and is hard to access, with spiral, narrow stairs. On the negative side, the loft is dusty, and could use better cleaning. I did quite a bit of cleaning the first couple of days to try to get rid of the smell (and it helped). The pillows in the bedroom were old and smelly, so we ended up buying 3 new ones, which we left in the left. As for parking, we tried to find the 7 euros one but did not succeed; however, an older gentleman told us to avoid it anyway, because it is not monitored and his mirror was broken in it. Best is to park in one of the main lots (Toreille, Jardin), then go to the office at level -1 in Jardin and get the weekly pass for 55 euros, unlimited entries. In our case, Toreille did not have any weekly passes left, so we had to stay at Jardin. Note that you are pretty much on your own. The agent arranged for us to pick up the key from her father, who lives nearby, but we never saw her. Basic questions like where do we throw the garbage took her more than 24 hours to answer. when we left, we had to throw the key inside her dad's home because no one was there to take it from us.

lovely apartment, wonderful location
Really lovely apartment just inside the old city, so steps from all the action. Beautiful views from living room and upper terrace. Ubiquitous mopeds and revving motorcycles made it a necessity at times to have the windows closed, but the double paned windows did well at muting the noise. Owner responsive and helpful. Finding free parking was a challenge on most days, but we ultimately found one every day for two weeks.

An Apartment in the Middle of History!
Ideal location if you love a historical setting with all modern amenities. We spent a lot of time on the terrace overlooking the mountains – beautiful sunrise to accompany an early breakfast and pinkish skies at cocktail hour! Loved it!

Wonderful week in Vence in a beautiful flat.
We had a wonderful week in the medieval walled city of Vence. The flat is up two flights of stairs in the old wall of the city and has a beautiful view of the countryside from large windows that light up the living room. The flat is well equipped and there are numerous shops and grocery stores as well as over a dozen restaurants within walking distance. There is a local market of one kind or another almost every day inside the walls or just outside in the square. Wifi works well and a city parking garage is an easy walk for 40 euros for a weekly pass. The first night we were there there was a symphony orchestra playing Beethoven's 7th in the cathedral (100 meters from the flat) for 10 euros a piece. Vence is a great central location for quick drives the Nice, Cannes, St Paul de Vence and a dozen other beautiful villages. Perfect first week of our two month vacation in France.

A brilliant place to stay
The loft is a very special place to stay. It has been very thoughtfully designed, with all creature comforts, yet in such a historic building. The location is superb - everything you need on the doorstep. I’d love to come back and can highly recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Jane Moser

Host profile image
We are based in the UK and we spend many holidays in Vence with our children. We love the swimming pool in Vence, the beaches at Cagnes sur Mer, nearby villages St Jeannet and Tourettes sur Loup. We love the restaurants, markets and general hubbub of Vence life.

Why they chose this property

An excellent bolt hole at the heart of the Cote d'Azur. Vence is a lively town and is ideally located for the coast and for the nearby towns of Grasse, St Jeannet, St Paul, Nice, Cannes, Antibes. With many fabulous Michelin stared restaurants a mere 2 minute walk from the apartment and a super market every Tuesday and Friday, you won't go hungry.

What makes this property unique

Modernised 2010 - brand new bathroom and fully fitted kitchen. Oven and induction hob, dishwasher and washing machine. The apartment is air conditioned and has a super terrace that overlooks the mountains. The terrace is completely private and is not overlooked.
