What To Expect

In terms of décor:

We have carefully designed and furnished each home with a passion for art and have made sure that the spirit of the house is appropriate to the region, and to the history of the property.

 

In terms of comfort:

We want each property to feel like it is your home for your stay abroad. That means they are your homes with every comfort to make your stay a pleasure. We hope that you treat these homes with the same respect you would your own, and that you return on your next trip and feel you have walked into a familiar place.

 

In terms of quality:

Our furnishings are of premium quality and authentic to the experience. The beds are comfortable with the finest linens, the bathrooms are stocked with local products and the towels are plush. The kitchens are designed for the foodie-in-you. We have ensured that you have everything you need to create a world-class meal, the recipes, on the other hand, are up to you.

 

In terms of functionality:

The properties you are renting have been lived in, and rented out, and we have made every effort to iron out any issues there may be with functional aspects of the house. However, these properties are old; the Chateau is from 1275, and while they are modernised and luxurious, you need to manage your expectations that they are not new constructions.

It is best to fully understand that part of renting an independent home, that is, not a hotel, is the experience and joy in getting your own local groceries, and cooking like a local.

Local Concierge

We have identified a list of services for your stay with us. Once you have booked with us, and one month before your arrival we recommend you access these services directly. If you wish a Local Concierge will be assigned to you for a fee €150 for the first week of your stay and €100 for each consecutive week thereafter should you require it. They will ensure that you can easily access the services that you need and make the necessary arrangements on your behalf.  Please do note that these properties are not hotels, they are homes for your stay with select services.

 

Please note, not all are services are available at every property, and the fee for these services is different depending on whether you are in Paris or Portofino.
