Welcome to Lou Messugo, a bright and sunny 1-bedroom apartment (gite) that can accommodate up to 4 guests. Our beautiful Provencal family home, located in the world-famous French Riviera, is attached to the gite, but it is fully independent. Please note that our place is not an apartment in a block of flats, instead, it is a charming sunny flat with its own garden. Our gite is situated in a large garden with a refreshing swimming pool that is shared only with us, the owners. Located on a quiet no-through road, this tranquil setting is just a few minutes' walk away from the local town center, where you can find all the amenities you need. Experience the authentic French lifestyle and enjoy the peaceful surroundings of Lou Messugo. Check out IG for more photos & videos @loumessugo Our cosy gite/apartment boasts 1 bedroom with a comfortable double bed (140 wide), a spacious living room with a double sofa bed, and a modern bathroom with a large shower. The fully equipped kitchenette includes a 2-ring hob, combination oven/microwave/grill, fridge and all the necessary utensils for preparing your own meals. Stay entertained with satellite TV, a hifi with USB connection, and fast, free, and unlimited WIFI. Step outside and enjoy the sunny patio, complete with a BBQ and sun loungers. We provide all linen and bath towels, and pool towels are available upon request for an additional fee. Indulge in an array of activities during your stay with us! Our property offers a variety of facilities, including pétanque (boules), table tennis, mölky/Kubb and badminton. And not to be missed, our fabulous pool provides the perfect place to unwind and soak up the sun. If you're looking to combine work and travel, our place is ideal for a "workcation". The serene surroundings, abundant sunshine (great for Vitamin D to boost your immune system), free WIFI, ergonomic desk chair, and access to our printer make it a pleasure to work from Lou Messugo. We understand that travelling with babies or toddlers can be challenging, so we aim to make your stay with us as stress-free as possible. We offer a range of equipment, including a travel cot, high chair, plastic plates/cutlery/cups, and a selection of toys, books, and games to keep your little ones entertained. We reside on the property and are readily available to assist with any language barriers you may encounter, such as booking restaurants, arranging onward travel, and securing tickets for events/trips. We're also happy to provide recommendations on local activities and attractions. Having lived here since 2007, we've explored all the amazing things the area has to offer, from canyoning, hiking, sailing, and skiing, to museums, art galleries, undiscovered country villages, shopping, restaurants, and markets. Our children have grown up here, so we can suggest activities for little ones as well. We take pleasure in helping our guests make the most of their time in our beautiful part of the world, and we love to hear about your travels. However, we also understand the importance of privacy, so if you prefer to be left alone, we respect that fully. As our guest, you are fully independent, so it's entirely up to you how much interaction you want with us. No matter the time of year, this region of France is absolutely stunning, and our location close to the mountains makes us an ideal base for winter activities such as skiing or snowshoe trekking. Even in the winter the climate is mild, with plenty of sunshine and midday temperatures frequently reaching 18°C (65°F) in January. This makes it possible to enjoy a delightful lunch on a sunny restaurant terrace, even during the middle of winter! Additionally, the apartment is fully heated to ensure a comfortable and cosy stay during the cooler months. Please browse through the guide I've prepared here to give you an idea of some of the great things you can do in the area. It's far from exhaustive as there's just so much more on offer particularly in the category of restaurants. It would be impossible to list all the fabulous places to eat from cosy local cafés to gourmet bistros and gastronomic palaces! Many of my favourite places don't show up on the map search for this guide book but I'd be delighted to tell you about them. I also write a blog Lou Messugo in which I write about local places of interest, places to visit, festivals, French culture and much more. Do have a read! Otherwise please feel free to ask me for tips and local knowledge. Guest access You have your own key and being in an entirely separate apartment you are fully independent to come and go as you like. You have access to a large garden with a pétanque pitch, trampoline, ping-pong table and badminton. You also have access to the pool from 8 am - 7 pm (in season, roughly May - late September depending on the weather, it's not heated) which is shared only with us, the owners. (And we prioritise your use, in fact, it's very rare that we'd actually be there with you). If needed you can store large items such as a roof box, bicycles, golf clubs, skis, etc in our garage. Other things to note Please note this is a quiet residential area with young families who live here, therefore parties and loud music are not allowed. The pool is open from 8 am to 7pm. Complimentary charging for EVs. Registration number SIRET 882 825 698 00013
