Join in with the celebration of colour and fun at this sunny apartment perched in the central Liberation Quarter and just a ten-minute walk from Nice's charming old town.

Inside, we can't get enough of the pops of citron, giving the whole space a fresh and uplifting feel. But it's that outside terrace with magnificent city vistas, all-day sunshine, and private setting (thanks to the apartment's privileged top-floor position) that's getting us hot under the collar. Sunny mornings call for alfresco breakfast on the balcony – an all-too-rare treat in a city where outdoor space is scarce. And if you think it's impressive now, just wait until dusk when the lights of the city flicker on – it's a prime spot for a few aperitifs before heading out for dinner.

And you're in the right part of town to do so here. Dive into buzzy restaurants nestled amidst the old-world opulence of the historic quarter's architecture. Pick up some local specialties at the Liberation market (a five-minute walk). Call in at the magnificent Marc Chagall Museum and the Basilica of Notre Dame for a spot of culture (both roughly ten minutes away on foot). And of course, there's always the dazzling coast (a ten-minute drive or twenty-five-minute stroll) for balmy beach days and people watching from Promenade des Anglais' famed blue chairs – sunglasses at the ready, folks.

Home truths:
*Part of an apartment building, you'll share an entrance
*This home sleeps three with the last guest sleeping on a sofa bed in the lounge area – if you’d like ample space for socialising, we’d recommend this home for two guests
*There is free, private parking allocated on the premises of the apartment building. The space is a little narrow, bear this in mind if you're renting a car.
*You will need to collect the keys from your Host a little further away from the home
