Beautiful retreat
We enjoyed a relaxing stay of nine days at La Sénéquière, set at the end of a private drive with a lovely view to the north, giving on to a valley and the hills around Grasse. The property is a charming, lovingly maintained 200-year-old farmhouse, with plenty of room for a family of 4-5. (This is in fact still only half the house; the other half is occupied by the owners, who may or may not be there when you are.) The kitchen is large and functional, with an electric range, dishwasher, and plenty of dishes and glasses (though we would have appreciated one or two decent knives!). There is a lovely pool, and gorgeous landscaping, with olive trees, figs, honeysuckle, roses, etc. Fresh eggs from the hens. We felt completely at ease in this private, quiet setting. Easy access to shopping, and close to Cannes, Antibes, and Nice. The owners are friendly and responsive; my guess is that Anglophone guests will have an easier time of it if they speak some French. Be sure to ask for a sample of some of Mme's delicious mulberry jam!
