We just had a lovely short stay here. Communications with the owner when booking and before arrival were excellent. Sheen arranged to pick us up from the airport as we were not hiring a car and this worked out cheaper than a taxi - it's just around 20 km drive north from the airport. Sheen and his wife gave us a very warm welcome at the property and were very helpful throughout our stay, but also managed to make us feel like we had the place to ourselves. The apartment is next to, but separate from their own home and has been recently refurbished to a high standard, including a modern bathroom and kitchen area. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. There were two of us, using the double bed and the sofa bed, both of which were very comfortable. The grounds and pool are lovely and feel very secluded and private. There are lots of places to sit and relax including some shady spots. It was very peaceful, just the occasional passing car and the distant hum of cars in the valley beneath. There are very broad views from the apartment and pool-side down along the river Var to the coast, with forest on the hillsides, some light industry and agriculture in the valley below and in the far distance the Allianz Riviera stadium, St Laurent-du-Var, the airport and coast line. Gattières is a pleasant hilltop village with some ancient houses and narrow alleys and views towards the Alps. There's a supermarket less than five minutes walk away from the apartment, and a couple of restaurants in the village. With mountains to the north and Nice and the coast to the south, it's well placed for activities if you have transport, but we were just there to relax. I would really recommend this property and hope to go back again some time.
