The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Var region
The Gulf of Saint Tropez is well known for it's superb summer climate. You can expect temperature of 26 to 36°C and sunshine every day. with a sea breeze that picks up in the afternoon, so that it never gets too hot.
The beaches, golf courses and water sports are the main attractions of the area, but plenty is to be discovered in the many medieval towns and villages in the surrounding countryside.
The principality of Monaco and the towns of Antibes & Cannes are well worth a visit during your stay whilst attractions like the glass blowing factory of Biot or the perfume manufactuers of Grasse offer a good day out.
Gulf of Saint-Tropez / Grimaud area
You can have a relaxing holiday or you can try sport fishing for tuna, rent a boat for the day, or if you don't have a licence, then rent an electric boat and tour Port Grimaud. Saint Tropez's night life and Pamplone beach restaurants are world renown. Visit local markets every day in neighbouring villages or do the "grand canyon" in the Verdon natural park just 45 kms in land. Live the provensale way of life and let the cicades do the work..........tse tse tse tse tse tse tse
How to get there
You can fly to Nice (70kms) with all the principal companies and Easyjet. Most car hire companies are represented at the airport. An alternative is Toulon (45kms), which is a smaller airport where RyanAir operate from.
By train the nearest station is in St. Raphael (25kms).
If you choose to drive then you will find the French autoroutes are excellent despite the toll charges. You can leave the A8 either at Le Luc (35kms) or Le Muy (30kms). Le Luc provides a pleasant scenic (twisting) route over the Maures mountains via La Garde Freinet whilst Le Muy offers a less dramatic route via Sainte Maxime. However, this option comes at the cost of traffic jams whilst the first option is quite fluid and brings you to within 500m of the road leading to the villa.
