I stayed with Nikki for a week in January and had a wonderful time. Nikki is the perfect host, warm and welcoming. Her apartment is very clean, well equipped and in a great location. Just minutes from the picturesque promenade of Juan-les-Pins and about a 20 minute stroll into the beautiful town of Antibes. I found it very easy to get around on the trains and buses and explored some of the many pretty villages and towns along the coast. The medieval villages of Biot and Villeneuve-Loubet are not to be missed. I hired a bike one day and found it so easy and safe to get around as the area is well designed for cyclists with a cycle track all along the coast as far as Nice. Thank you Nikki for helping to make my stay in Juan-les-Pins such a lovely, memorable experience. I will be back, hopefully in the summer.

I stayed with Claudine, Yvon and their family for a week in June and had a wonderful time. As this was my first time travelling alone I was a little apprehensive but the family were so warm and welcoming and I felt very relaxed and comfortable. It is a beautiful, old farmhouse with lots of character and a lovely pool in beautiful surroundings. So calm and peaceful surrounded by nature and the horses on the farm are so friendly. I took some French lessons with Claudine who is a very fine teacher. Merci Claudine. I hired a car and explored the surrounding area. Ariana very kindly lent me her bike and I enjoyed exploring the surrounding area on the bike also. Aix en Provence is about 8 km away and is a very nice town but my favourite was Ventabren which is just 3 km from the farmhouse and a really pretty hilltop village with lots of little paved streets, fab views of the valley and flowers everywhere. A trip to the Luberon region is also highly recommended and is one of the most beautiful regions in France. In particular a trip to Roussillon is recommended which took my breath away with its beauty and charm. And the lavender fields are a sight to behold, don't forget your camera. I look forward to staying with Claudine and family again next year.
