Fréjus aquaduct; The aqueduct of Fréjus was built in the middle of the first century after the ramparts were in place. It functioned for 450 years until the Vth century. It is 42 km long, with a difference in altitude between the highest spring of Neïssoun and the castellum aquae in the city of 481 m. The aqueduct runs mostly in a covered conduit for 36.4 km and for 1.8 km on bridges and 500 m on walls. Large parts of the aqueduct are still well preserved.

Gorges du Verdon; second only to the Grand Canyon, this is something not to be missed. Spectacular scenery and white water sports: rafting, canyoning, kayaking. Water sports: sailing, water skiing, fishing. Aerial sports: paragliding, free flight gliding. Climbing, hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking.

Cannes 30 min.

Grasse, the 'perfume capital of the world' and lies 30 mins from the house. Spectacular old village with winding streets and stunning views. Excellent restaurants and cafés. Endless opportunities to sample and purchase perfume, as well as visits to the manufacturers to see the rose petals being transformed into scent. Make your own perfume too.

Visit Antibes and Juan les Pins, the preferred hang-outs for many celebrities. Amazing night-life with many clubs, bars and restaurants.

Nearby St Tropez is perhaps the most beach resort in the world after Brigitte Bardot arrived in 1956 to make the film 'Et Dieu Créa la Femme'. Since then, St Tropez has become synonymous with its celebrity lifestyle and Mediterranean chicness. It certainly is an appealing place; a little fishing village on the southern shores of the Golfe de St Tropez. The 'Vieux Port', with the old town rising above the eastern quay is where you'll get the classic St Tropez experience. Choose from many sidewalk cafés to just sit and watch people go by.

The village has a huge choice of shops, cafés, restaurants, picturesque squares, winding streets and beautiful architecture to admire. Lively night-life clubs and cultural events. Several beaches to choose from.

Just outside St Tropez is PORT GRIMAUD, a charming Provençal town built in the 1960's and based on the layout of Venice; brightly coloured houses stand (and float) on private lagoons and waterways. It is a truly spectacular sight. Perfect for a gentle stroll to admire the architecture and the boats. Lots of cafés and brasserie restaurants. Boat trips leave here for a tour around the bay.

Facing St Tropez across the gulf is STE MAXIME, a pretty and traditional Riviera town with long promenade and palm trees. Delightful stretches of Mediterranean beaches with all water sports. No better way to spend an evening than to choose one of the restaurants or bars on the waterside and just watch the boats and the lights out on the bay.

Client comments

"We have stayed in a number of villas now all over France and i have to say the service for this rental was brilliant, efficient and very professional. Many thanks - we are looking to use Pure France again next year and are just perusing the selection of properties available as we love the views and the area but like to stay somewhere new each time so any recommendations are welcome. We also dined at the La Table d'Yves and the Four Seasons - Faventia both were brilliant."
Karen Connolly

"Very well appointed, clean and well maintained property. The house has a very cosy and relaxing feel about it - a real comfortable home - and the garden is lovely. The place is well located near Cannes and St Tropez and there are many beaches to choose from all within a short drive. Great for a relaxing holiday combining lounging by the pool and visiting Cote d'Azur."

"A stunning property situated in a gated community, with fabulous views from the terraces. The pool is large enough to stay in the villa all day if you wish, however, there is also a larger pool just a short drive, which also has a delightful restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. We arrived quite late and were still accommodated for food at 10pm, they also have themed nights, with entertainment. The villa has a kitchen/preparation area on the lower level, if using the barbeque this is brilliant because all the food/drinks can be taken down to this level rather than going up and down the stairs to the top kitchen. The owner has made this property so cosy, with little touches of welcome such as milk in the fridge and not forgetting a bottle of the local wine, quite charming. We just wanted a quiet week away and this property ticked all the boxes for us, we would certainly recommend this property to friends/family."

"The Villa has clearly been the home of the owners, indeed there is a high spec of equipment in keeping with a real home, not the usual holiday home stuff. A/C in the main bedroom and living area is wonderful. The surround sound system was unexpected, it's not just a cheap system either. Being high up gives a sense of air, especially at dusk and in the evening. I particularly loved the roof terrace as darkness drew in."
