Vacation Rental Information

After the scourge of the Black Death in the Vallis Bona (or Valbonne to you and I) during the 16th century, the Bishop of Grasse and the abbot of Lerins decided the valley had to be repopulated. They chose to plan the village on an ancient Roman grid system, a la New York, making the village unique and unlike other villages in the south of France, which tend to follow the curves of the hills. Valbonne is a charming medieval village inland in the Alpes- Maritimes, north-west of Antibes and to the north of the Provencal autoroute A8.
