Domain St Jacques de Couloubrier
Côte D'Azur (8-10 guests)
Sitting majestically in the hills to the south west of Grasse, Domaine St Jacques de Couloubrier is set in one of the finest gardens in southern France. South facing, the house overlooks its own superbly rich valley of terraces of mature olive, cypress and fruit trees. A restored water garden designed by Russell Page, the great landscape designer of his time, features a fountain set high above a cascading water-course, lined by cypress trees, leading to the swimming pool and formal lily pond. A magnificent terrace, with steps leading to a tranquil fountain and a box and lavender knot garden, provides spectacular views over the surrounding countryside.
This peaceful haven harbours fountains, a sunken rose garden, a white garden with a Provencal olive grove and a wild flowered woodland area.
The Astroturf tennis court is discreetly placed and, on a lower terrace, the classic, yet state of the art, greenhouses complete this small country estate.
