A ruralhut with a special story! In 1988 the landlords acquired an old neglected olive grove with an area of about 11,000 square meters near L’Escarène. They built the ruralhut in the following years. They kept the style used in the surrounding area in mind during this process. Utilities were realized and a water source was struck so that a water pipeline could be installed. They managed to restore the olive grove in collaboration with an olive expert. The surface was cleaned, old trees pruned and new ones were planted. Nowadays it is harvested again every year. This regards the Olive Cailetier or Olive Niçoise, a small black olive that only occurs in this region. The olive grove is on a south slope, which guarantees an optimal number of sun-hours. The panoramic view is mesmerizing. The Mediterranean Sea lies behind the hills. This ruralhut is suitable for two people. The décor is atmospheric and suits the needs of today. It has a spacious kitchen with a covered terrace, a living room, a spacious bedroom with two single beds and also has a covered terrace, and a bathroom with sink, shower/bath and toilet. High speed internet is available as well as a radio and CD player. There is a curved 60 meter long driveway leading up to the entrance with large gate in front of the cottage.
Nature and surroundings
The ruralhut is located in the hills near the village of L’Escarène, which is 20 kilometers away from Nice on one end and 20 kilometers away from Sospel on the other. The surroundings and the village with Italian origin are not yet discovered by tourism. The medieval architecture has the feel of the original Provencal villages in all aspects. They are starting to mark hiking trails in our area. You will therefore not see many buildings in the area. The Mercantour National Park is roughly a 45 minute drive away from L’Escarène. You can take trips to the Vallée des Merveilles from there. In the park you are able to admire the rock drawings dating back from the Bronze Age. The Mediterranean does not require a recommendation. Nevertheless, we would like to remind you of the clear water and the fact that the water temperature below the coast fluctuates around 25 degrees Celsius during the summer.
