The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region


The beach has both public and private areas with some lovely beach restaurants where you can hire a lounger for the day and be waited on, listening to the sea lapping on the beach. Or enjoy the beachside restaurants or hire bikes and family tandems for enjoying the kilometers of promenade Cagnes has to offer. There is also a small port used by locals and visitors and much enjoyed and fequented by jet skiers.
The fishing port of Cros de Cagnes, a 10 minute walk down the promenade, is interesting in the early mornings when the fisherman still land their catches; as is the old town of Cagnes with its cobbled streets and chateau. Both are within a good walk. Also a must visit is Renoir's house in Cagnes where you can see where he lived and worked, ie. his studio and visit the beautiful grounds with their views over the town and coast.
The glass making village of Biot is 5 minutes by car and the pottery town of Vallauris is 20 minutes away just inland from Golf Juan, the other side of Antibes. The villages inland of Mougins, Valbonne and of course Vence town are also worth visiting. Easy access by train from Cagnes connects to Cannes, Antibes and Nice as well as Villefranche, Monte Carlo and into Italy at Ventigmilia for its vaste Friday market. Isola 2000 the winter ski resort is just an hours drive away.
Nice is just a 20 minute drive as is Antibes in the opposite direction. Inland is the beautiful hilltop Provencal village of St Paul, just 15 minutes away by car.
The Nice / Cagnes Sur Mer area
The area has many festivals from the Mardi Gras festival in Nice in February through to the Gross Tetes festival and parade in the summer. Cannes of course has its film festival and Juan les Pins its late summer Jazz festivals. There are many others on a year round basis.
Cagnes itself is split into 3 parts, the main town with all its modern shops and indoor daily market a five minute walk away, the old town with its chateau museum made famous by Renoir and the fishing port of Cagnes just along the coast. Nearby is the Hippodrome horse racing course and golf courses can be found within 23 minutes. Needless to say there are a number of Marinas where sailing can be found as well as diving. In winter the pre Alpes plays home to a number of popular ski resorts the nearest being one hours drive. In Antibes, there is the old walled sea town or the modern yachting port to visit, as well as a thriving town full of shops and restaurants. A must is the Picasso museum where the life and works of the artists life whilst here is on display.

Guestbook for Le Grand Large
'The apartment is so tastefully decorated and extremely spacious! The location is great and the views from the balcony & living rooms are wonderful. We had mostly sunny, warm weather so were able to enjoy the views every day! Andrea Huntley and family, October 2010
'Thoroughly recommend the apartment at Le Grand Large for a first class family holiday. Very spacious with amazing sea views, through breezes and a perfect pool. You are minutes from good restaurants and the beach. With the medieval village and the Renoir museum just inland, there is something for everyone." Jon Cheyne, July 2010
'It's good that you've emailed me, because it's also reminded me that I wanted to let you now what a fab time we had, and how very, very impressed we were with the apartment. I must have mis-read the details, because I was actually expecting it to be literally half the size it is.
So when we're next in Nice, you'll definitely be getting a repeat booking from us. :-)" - Karl McCracken, June 2010
I would just like to say your apartment is lovely,with great views, and we had a nice relaxing holiday.the swimming pool was great.thanks for renting it out to us. - Dave Buckingham
We have just returned from our break in France and must say we had the best holiday ever, many places visited and a wonderful base to explore from.- Neil Watts and family
