_Virtual Viewing of the Week: Le Bar-sur-Loup, France

This week we discover the incredible Château des Valettes, a 17th century French castle with a unique history, located in a beautiful spot just inland of the spectacular Côte d'Azur

September 10, 2020

Dominating the valley below the medieval village of Le Bar-sur-Loup, Château des Valettes faces predominately south, with incredible views of the local countryside, the village and Gourdon. Spacious and open, the house comprises 800 square metres, which includes two floors, a basement and a garden with a swimming pool and tennis court.

Distinctively beautiful and rich in history, this property was the birthplace of one of the great French heroes of the American War of Independence: the Admiral de Grasse.

Since then, the château has had a series of impressive owners, including Philip Beaumont Frere, who undertook renovations with the help of an architect, Léon Loschetter, and the famous landscape architect, Jean Mus. Today, the property retains traces of its history while offering modern quality, comfort and a subtle renaissance atmosphere.
