About this property
Charming apartment, rustic setting, spectacular pool
Charming rustic property in secluded residence complete with original wooden beams. The 100 year old residence was originally a hotel up to the 1970's and was subsequently converted into individual apartments, studios and mews . Situated on the roof of the first floor, our house and terrace is surrounded by a beautiful balustrade. All main rooms open onto the terrace with views of mountains and mature gardens. There is a magnificent pool and kiddies pool. Private parking. Walking distance from Golf club, restaurants, shops and tennis, three miles (5km) from beautiful old town of St. Raphael and four miles (6.5km) from historic Frejus and 5 miles (8km) from charming village of Agay with its long sandy beach and little coves with restaurants dotted along the way. Traveling by car the property is approximately 45 minutes from Nice Airport, 25 minutes from Cannes on one side, St. Maxime and St. Tropez on the other. Furnished with fully fitted kitchen, bathroom/shower. Chairs on terrace' Although we have no air conditioning we have just installed ceiling fans in the two bedrooms. With the number of doors and windows in the apartment it is surprisingly airy.
This area is lush with vineyards - you can drop in to any of them.
Golfers choice: There are at least thirty golf courses within a one hour drive of the property with varying degrees of difficulty.

About the host
Hosted by TONY & DENISE BROPHY
My wife Denise (who is an artist) and I used to bring the kids camping to France over the years. We spent many wonderful holidays in campsites all over France but particularly loved the South of France.
When I retired although my wife still works we had more time and decided to try and buy a small place in the St.Raphael area, an area we had come to really love during our camping holidays in the South of France.

Why they chose this property
When we came across the apartment in Valescure we literally fell in love with it. It is unique with so much character and is in such a beautiful and tranquil setting. It has everything we were looking for. It also has an amazing history since it was originally a hotel and was converted to apartments about forty years ago.
We consider ourselves so lucky to have it. We now have three grandchildren and our kids love it as it is ideal for couples with small children.
