Orange Hill

Set on the rolling hills of Montecarlo and surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, you'll find yourself in awe of the countryside views when you stay at this traditional villa. From the moment you arrive and enter the gated driveway, you'll realise this is somewhere special. Completely fenced and bordered with hedges, fragrant flowers and antique terracotta pots, the 5,000sqm garden here feels more like a park. Kids will enjoy the outdoor ping pong table, while the adults enjoy sipping sundowners and sharing nibbles in the alfresco dining space, surrounded by the scents of the surrounding vineyards. And let's not forget the Roman-style pool, lined in beautiful blue mosaic tiles with hydromassage jets that invite you to lean back and relax. Inside, this home is just as impressive, with beautiful artwork and elegant antique furniture everywhere you look. We particularly love the green marble spiral staircase, which adds an air of opulence to the space. We're sure you'll be more than content here, but if you want to venture out, the ancient Montecarlo Fortress is close by.
