About this space
Relax with the whole family at this peaceful place to stay. You're at the world capital of perfumes: In Grasse, the home of the creators of 'Chanel No. 5' and many others.

Our home, nestled in the midst of olive trees, lavender and almond, fig trees on Peyloubet Hill outside of Grasse (10 min.), offers a secluded sanctuary in Provence- Alpes-Cote d’Azur. Horses and a pony amble nearby, enriching your unique experience with nature's charming presence. The villa “Notre Dame des Fleurs” is an artists house. Rumor has it Picasso once had tea with the artist lady who lived here in the sixties. An easel is waiting here for painters, and a piano and a guitar for real musicians.

For the sports people there's a boxing bag hanging under an olive tree (bring your gloves), and for runners a nice 5 km round trip starting right from our front yard. You can take advantage of a yoga mat and a bellicon mini trampoline!

Our favorite place is the patio under an ancient olive tree next to the pool. Here you can have BBQ grill at the outside table and a cool drink in the shade. The pool is spacious, 5 x 12 m large, surrounded by teak wood sun beds. And if you want to have some quiet time, then just choose one of the three other terraces, or the upper garden.

The kitchen is well equipped, even for large feasts, because we love to cook. Big oven!

For anyone who needs to work, we offer a beautiful office with view and star link access. You will have fast Wifi but also Ethernet connection. Average download 100 Mit/sec. Upload 20 Mbit/sec. HP printer/copier/scanner is at your disposal, too.

You have 5 bedrooms with next-door bathrooms at your disposal, all equipped with comfortable brand new mattresses, 1 king size and 4 queen size plus 1 sofa bed with an extra topper for a good sleep. The main bedroom and the kitchen and dining room have air condition. All bedrooms are equipped with mosquito nets and blackout curtains, to only let in a cooling night breeze. At night you will hear the owl, sometimes frogs are a rooster from far.

It is recommended that you travel by car when visiting us, but you can also reach Grasse from the airport by train and then take a taxi. From Grasse, you can comfortably take the train to Cannes, Nice, Monte Carlo, and even Italy.

Our house has space for 3-4 cars in front of it, and parking is safe. However, it can be a bit tricky to park when you arrive in the dark, so please refer to the extra parking notes we send to each guest. We also provide a short video to make access easier. Please don't worry - so far, everyone has reached our house safely, including our 85-year-old parents who drove here with a rental car!

The neighborhood, near and far, offers plenty of wonderful things to explore. We have compiled the "must-sees" and "best-of" for food, beaches, golf, biking, and culture in our Manuel's House guidebook.

We can't wait to show you more and hope to see you soon!
