The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Alpes-Maritimes region
The climate of the Cote d'Azur is lovely year round; hot and sunny in summer, and generally nice enough to eat outside at any time.
It is an region with a fantastic variety of landscapes located within a small area, bordered by the dramatic coastline that stretches from Menton to St Tropez. For those who want to avoid the hustle and bustle of the coast, the countryside is not far away and the Gorges du Loup, a breathtaking canyon, is situated just 30 mins inland. Wonderful hiking areas are to be found in several directions.
The area is spoilt by the number of picturesque French villages; Hauts de Cagnes, Saint Paul de Vence (the preferred village of Louis XIV) and Grasse, just to name a few.
For those who prefer the city life, Nice or Cannes are just minutes away. Enjoy the contrast between the old and the new in Nice, or the famous film festival in Cannes.
Nice / Haut de Cagnes area
Haut de Cagnes is ideally situated on the Cote d'Azur just ten minutes drive from Nice and half an hour from Cannes. There is a daily market down the hill, a special fish market in neighbouring Cros de Cagnes, a large market in Antibes on Thursday, and the Antique market in Nice weekly.
For art lovers, Auguste Renoir's residence and museum is a must. You can also check out the exhibition inside the Chateau of Haut de Cagnes and enjoy an amazing roof top view – you can see all the way to Italy on clear days! Also of interest are the chapel of Matisse in Vence, and the Chagall and Picasso museums in Nice and Antibes. A great family excursion is Marineland, just 15 mins away.
At Marineland you can enjoy an unforgettable killer whale show and a large water park. The hippodrome is open each evening with special events throughout the year. As we are so near the coast there are obviously all the water sports that you can imagine!
For golf lovers there is also a large choice of courses in the area and tennis courts nearby. Great skiing lies only 1 hour north. Free outdoor jazz concerts in the place du chateau are frequent in the summer months, and the Medieval festival in July is a great family event not to be missed.
How to get there
The Nice International airport is a short 10kms from the Villa. In addition, there is an SNCF (French train) stop for Cagnes-sur-Mer which is just 2km away from the villa. Easyjet and all major airlines that service France fly into the Nice airport regularly.
A wide variety of rental car companies are available both at the airport and in nearby Cagnes-sur-Mer. To travel from the airport to the villa there are both taxi and bus options.
There is a free shuttle available year round and excellent bus services. Renting a car is not necessary, but can be helpful if you plan to make a lot of day trips and prefer driving yourself as opposed to taking the train.
