La Bella

La Bella

France, French Riviera, Cap Brun ~ 10 Bedrooms ~ 10 Bathrooms ~ Sleeps 12 to 20

On the shore of the French Riviera stands the large and proud Villa La Bella. This magnificent mansion, surrounded by a three-hectare(6 acres) park with its private beach, was built at the turn of the 20th century typical of the Napoleon III style.   

   It overlooks the sea and offers gorgeous views from each of its sides. The finely composed garden exudes a Victorian luxuriance and greatness, with its majestic palms, its scented pines and its many flower beds. The elegant combination between the mansion, the garden and the dazzling scenery contributes to the overwhelming sense of quiet and luxury.

    

    A beautiful path winding through the gardens leads to the private beach where a rocky cave provides a comfortable shelter. The very peacefulness of this shore is all that is needed to enjoy the pleasures of the sea.

    

     The excellent location of the Villa La Bella, off the highways and entirely fenced, makes it an outstanding place where lavish receptions can indeed be held, but where quietness and privacy can also be totally preserved.
