Guest reviews for L'Effrontée
"A wonderful place to stay. Lots of interesting places to visit nearby, although the highlight of our days was always returning to the beautiful gardens and pool. But what really makes this 10/10 is the friendliness of Mathieu, Cedric, Mathieu's mother and Floupy the dog. Nothing was too much trouble for Mathieu, the breakfasts and evening meal were excellent and he had great suggestions for what to do during the day."

"This is a magical place to stay - a gorgeous house which has been lovingly restored on the edge of a super picturesque town. But what makes this place really stand out is the incredible attention to detail from the owners. Matthieu provides a first class breakfast and bakes something new (and delicious) every day. He was incredibly helpful with tips about where to go. The property is one of the most relaxing places I’ve ever stayed. The bed is super comfy, there are 300 year old olive trees in the garden, the pool is huge. There is even the world’s cutest dog on hand for petting. I can’t recommend this place highly enough."

"L'Effrontee is stunning place to stay, a little Gem.. so beautiful!! and Mathieu, Cedric an Lucy welcomed us with open arms. We shared a family meal on the terrace and it was so nice to be able to chat and enjoy lovely homemade food. Even all the preserves and the breakfasts were delicious with nice daily specials made by Mathieu. The house is very stylish and an oasis of peace and calm, with wonderful views from our bedroom window. Transfer from the airport was so smooth and well organised, we opted not to have a car, Mathieu organised a taxi for us to visit St Paul De Vence and gave us lots of suggestions where to visit in the village. The swimming pool is also so gorgeous and the dragonflies we fun to watch zooming around the gardens, nothing was too much trouble. a lovely piece of heaven, it provided us with a wonderful relaxing break after a tough 7 months, don't hesitate to book. We will be back again."

"It's not often you stumble upon such a unique and fantastic place as L’effrontee. The location, the house, the view and the pool (and the smell of lavender) are absolutely wonderful. But the cornerstone of this undertaking is the warm-hearted, caring and inclusive family; Mathieu, Cédric and Lucy. ….. and don’t forget to try Mathieu’s authentic and tasteful cooking🤗"
"Next time we will rent a Car. A stay can easily be done without one, as the city and restaurents are within a short walking distance, but the freedom and opportunities are just a little easier with a car or bicycles."
"The garden with its many lounge areas, the clean and warm pool, the breakfast terrace, and the attitude of the owners."
"Nothing. Everything was excellent."
"The owners were delightful and made me feel very welcome. Easy walk into the village."

"Perfect location close to a cozy village with top class restaurants. Mathieu gave us a warm welcome and offered us a drink when we arrived. The room was lovely with its own terrace overlooking the beautiful garden and pool area. The bed was super comfy with soft linen sheets. Every little detail inside and outside the house was perfect. The home made breakfast was 10/10. Definitely coming back, Thank you 🙏"

"Our experience at L'Effrontée was truly wonderful, despite the less-than-ideal weather. Mathieu, our gracious host, played a significant role in making our stay memorable. The rooms were not only exceptionally clean but also exuded a delightful charm. The breakfast served was of the highest quality, leaving us thoroughly satisfied. The convenience of their private parking made our stay even more enjoyable, and the proximity to the city made exploring on foot a breeze. The pool area was a standout feature, providing a serene and inviting space. Mathieu's assistance in securing a restaurant reservation and offering valuable suggestions for activities added a personalized touch to our visit. With such a positive experience, we are eager to return to L'Effrontée in the future."
"no thing, only the weather :-)"
"A wonderful, intimate country house, impeccably styled and maintained by Mathieu. The pool is large, the breakfast is fresh and the hospitality from Mathieu, Lucy (Mum), Cedric and Floopy (Yorkie) is incredibly warm and welcoming. Great views and an easy walk into Tourettes make L'Effrontée just about perfect. Absolutely loved our stay."
