Villa Bois Fleuri

Nature and Light, Close to Cannes and the Sea

Translating as "villa of the flowery wood," this paradise of nature is situated in the land of lavender fields, rosé wine and that golden light that drew Van Gogh and Cezanne.

It is a sumptuous upscale residence and a haven of peace, among lush grounds that give way to a private swimming pool, tennis courts and a pétanque court. Areas for relaxation and contemplation abound, and you might even be treated to a symphony of the cicada, a folkloric Provencal icon.

A villa in Provence is one of life's must-have journeys, and this architectural beauty where nature reigns is certainly a wise choice.

Inside the villa on the ground floor, there are four bedrooms (five if you count a smaller living room with a folding bed) and four and a half bathrooms, accommodating up to 10 guests. ​Two of the bedrooms have their own bathroom. The other two share a bathroom.

The residence has air conditioning, and each room additionally has adjustable ceiling ventilation. There is parking, a private, secure and heated swimming pool and deckchairs, a private petanque ground and tennis court. The home has WiFi internet access and a washer and dryer. There is a baby cot and high chair, housekeeping two hours a day, and the domain is secured.
