Albert Aicard, a famous lawyer from Marseille, built this large property in around 1870: Marthe-Adèle Gardair, one of his eleven children inherited it in 1903. From 1932 to 1957 it became the « Hôtel du Revestel », a guesthouse where Winston Churchill and Virginia Woolf used to stay during their holidays in the south of France. In 1949, the villa and the land were bought from the Gardair family by a famous couple of racing drivers, Gaston and Claire Descollas. In 1968, a family from Marseille tried unsuccessfully to transform it into a thalassotherapy complex, before their son moved in after a major renovation in the eighties. The property has been abandoned for more than thirty years... Bought in 2016 by a couple of digital entrepreneurs, this family house has been completely renovated to combine modernity, simplicity, comfort and technology. It borrows its new name from the majestic 399 meter high cliff that dominates it, the Cap Canaille, the second highest sea cliff in Europe.
