Belle Âme

It’s not often we start off by mentioning a bathtub – but then again, not many homes have four exquisite free-standing tubs perfect for soaking. This is just one example of how this palatial villa strikes the perfect balance of original character and modern comfort. Owned by a fashion photographer and nestled in the exclusive Rothschild estate, there’s a definite sense of glamour, history and old-fashioned opulence in just about every room. The interiors are impressive – think natural wooden furnishings and rich leather upholstery, with bursts of abstract art and the owner’s photography adorning the walls. Start your morning off with a relaxing bath, a workout in the private gym or a swim in the large outdoor pool. Come afternoon, sprawl out in on the lounge chairs and snooze in the sunshine, then when your stomach starts rumbling, prepare a delicious meal in the rustic yet start-of-the-art kitchen, using fresh ingredients picked up from the covered market.
