Local Information

The centre of the medieval town of Grasse is just a 5 minute walk from the property.
All amenities including café bars, restaurants, supermarket, specialist shops etc. Many perfumeries to visit and create your own perfume!

The old town ("vieille ville") is large, old, and extremely interesting. Tiny streets wind forever between the 17th and 18th century buildings, up and down ancient steps, passing through arched tunnels and sometimes opening out onto large squares.

The principal square near the top of the old town is the Place aux Aires, with a daily market of flowers and regional foods. A pretty, three-tiered fountain splashes in the center of the flowers, and arcades line one long side.

To the south, only 15 km away, is the city of Cannes with its yachts, fine-sand beaches and luxury shopping.

World renowned for its glitzy exterior, Cannes is also a place of great cultural heritage. On a small hill above the port of Cannes is "le Souquet", Cannes' oldest quarter. During the 11th Century this was inhabited by the monks from Îles de Lerins after their island was raided by Saracens. Watch towers now provide views over the Mediterranean.

Whether it is glitz and glamour, shopping or culture you are looking for, you will find it all in Cannes.

Nearby Antibes (Cap d'Antibes & Juan-les-Pins) is located on the Mediterranean coast, between Cannes and Nice. It is the third largest town on the Côte d'Azur. Its name comes from the Greek 'Antipolis' which means 'opposite' (here, facing the city of Nice).

This is where the very rich and the very successful gather. All amenities with many pretty squares and narrow streets. Traditional markets and pavement cafés and restaurants. Excellent nightlife.

Despite its glamorous location, Antibes is relatively un-touristy. It is primarily a yachting town. Port Vauban is truly the centre of Mediterranean yachting. Worth a visit just to look at the boats on 'millionaires row'.

Marineland is the biggest marine show in Europe with dolphins, whales and sea-lions etc. Large water-park, 'Aquasplash' with water-chutes, wave pool and further attractions.

Picasso Museum with more than 50 original works.

To the east, about a 30-minute drive away, is Nice, with its international airport, pebble beaches and the bustle of a busy city.
