An intimate property perfect for those wanting a relaxing holiday in the South of France, Les Geais is situated 500 metres above sea level with stunning views of La Baie de Cannes, bordering protected woodland. Only 40 km from Nice airport.
Within walking distance of Cabris village with its restaurants, shops and excellent tennis club, Les Geais is set in very pretty gardens incorporating a small summer house and boules pitch. The house has a comfortable Salon with dining area, and a well-equipped working kitchen, both opening onto the terrace which is partially covered, meaning outside dining can be enjoyed well into the shoulder seasons. Bedroom accommodation is between the main house and the nearby ‘Woodshed’ Guest Cottage.
Beautifully maintained in a relaxed style, Les Geais welcomes you to enjoy its peaceful ambience. The gardens are a delight and reflect the Owners’ love for design and plantings. The terrace and garden has a choice of delightful sitting areas, including the `Tea House of the August Moon’ on the lower lawn, offering total relaxation. From the enclosed terraced swimming pool (10m x 4m) are spectacular views to the village and down the valley to the Mediterranean – even Corsica can be glimpsed on a clear day.
Cabris has an excellent tennis club and there is a challenging Golf course 5 km from the village, with further excellent 18-hole golf courses within easy access including Mougins, Opio & St Donat. Other activities in the area include white water canoeing up the mountains, hiking plus all the excitement of museums and art galleries in Nice. Once at the coast or at the lake, one can rent various craft and indeed water ski.
What we think: An intimate house perfect for those wanting a relaxing holiday. This is a charming property set in very pretty gardens, incorporating a small summer house. Steps lead up to a swimming pool with views to the coast. Beautifully planted garden with water features, a lawn on lower level to far side of house + borders with a delightful summer house and a shaded terrace by the house for outdoor eating.

Testimonials
We so enjoyed our stay at Les Geais once again. We love the house, garden and the area that we have visited for many years. I am sure that we will return!………………………………2022
The house was ideal for us (ie not too big for a family of 4), nicely furnished in a traditional cosy style and everything worked well. The gardens are beautiful and the pool area magnificent. Beatrice (who is lovely and well organised) and team provided a great service……………..2020
We had a wonderful time at Les Geais, our 5th trip I believe and it did not disappoint. We love our time there and were well looked after by Beatrice once again, it was wonderful to see her. Otherwise from our point of view we dearly love it there, and the garden is a highlight as always, it feels like home when we return, and I am sure we will be back there before too long…………2020
The villa was charming and in a lovely location with good restaurants etc on our doorstep. The village was lovely. Beatrice was extremely helpful and went to a lot of trouble to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The gardens were beautiful and really make it an exceptional property. We would happily return and recommend it (and your business) to friends. It’s in a wonderful area and would be particularly great for anyone that enjoys road cycling or hiking………………2020
Thank you for the most wonderful holiday at Les Geais. I don’t think you will be surprised when I say that we had a super time in this gorgeous property set in a smashing location……….2019
Our seventh stay here, and as ever we had a lovely relaxing time, look after beautifully by Beatrice and Sonja…..2019
Dear Pamela and all the team at PPA
Thank you for your postcard. I think you know before I say anything that I enjoyed another lovely visit to Les Geais. It is a super property on the edge of a gorgeous village, I feel very much at home there and would have liked to have stayed for a few more days – especially as the weather was improving when we left! I hope to be in touch again soon to fix my next visit………2016
