The initial purpose of my visit to France was a photography retreat in Cannes but I wanted to also experience a bit more than that. As soon as I saw the photos of this place I knew I wanted to stay there. Being up in the Maritime Alps in amongst the villas and small towns has always appealed to me. Although Le Mazet was a bit tricky to find (there are signs but small), it was such a treasure to find! It is tucked away at the end of the road, and very quiet and peaceful. The room I had was completely modernized, incredibly clean and everything you could want. And yet the exterior retained the old world charm and beauty that drew me to it in the first place.
The hosts are so nice! They bent over backwards trying to make sure that my stay was a pleasant one. Since I hadn't rented a car, they helped me get from one place to another, and treated me as though I was family. They were friendly without being intrusive, and really seemed to care about their guests.
Everything about this experience exceeded my expectations, and I plan to return when I have a chance, stay longer, and take advantage of the pool and amenities of a full kitchen provided for guests. This is definitely a place you could stay for days and enjoy every minute.
