“A fabulous, vibrantly decorated and beautifully run addition to the choice of places to stay in the hills above Cannes and Nice. The late 18th century house faces the town's great ash tree, planted in the reign of François I and captured in paint by Soutine. Inside, the imaginative decoration is ravishing, the five suites large, airy and luxurious, the breakfast delicious.”

“An exceptional location for a splendid guest house with a fine decoration and a luxurious atmosphere.
Located in the very heart of the historic district of Vence, La Maison du Frene is a superb and typically Provancal guest house built in the 18thC. The Pharmacie du Frene, the oldest pharmacy of the French Riviera, emphasises the historical and authentic atmosphere of the guest house. Four spacious junior suites are facing the monumental entrance of the Chateau de Villeneuve and the historical ash tree. The comfortable lounge and warm kitchen make guests feel at home.”
