Provence Villas & Cote D'Azur Villas
Provence is a region of south eastern France which is full of contrasts, from the golden beaches of the Cote d'Azur lapped by the Mediterranean to its snow-capped mountains; from the fragrant rolling hills of Grasse to the wetland area of the Camargue with its vast brine lagoons frequented by flamingoes and wild horses. This region of France is exotic, perfumed and breathtaking which is why we have some amazing
villas in the south of France for you to experience.
The climate here is typically Mediterranean with hot, dry summers and mild winters, no surprise then that people book villas in the south of France all year round. Near the coast the landscape is covered in aromatic shrubs such as lavender, sage, rosemary and wild thyme that can cope with summer droughts and is the quintessential scent of Provence - something we hope you can experience yourself when you stay at one of our
Provence villas. The Haute-Provence is one of the sunniest regions of France, with an average of 2700 hours. The clear nights and sunny days make this the perfect location for watching the night sky and it is home to many important observatories.
Villas in the south of France
Many of our
villas in the south of France are clustered around the town of Grasse, renowned as the world's perfume capital. Situated high on a hillside and 20 kilometres inland from the French Riveira, Grasse is protected from the sea air and there's an abundance of water in the hills. This provides the perfect microclimate and conditions for growing flowers. Jasmine is one of the main flowers harvested here. To be near this heavenly-scented centre look for
Provence villas in the villages of the Pays de Grasse like Spéracèdes, Le Tignet, Cabris, Peymeinade and St Cézaire. We also have an exceptional 6-bedroom villa in Provence in Grasse town. The Villa Diva is a magnificent 18th century villa with views towards Cannes and Antibes on the coast and located within a kilometre of Grasse's amenities and famous perfumeries.
Along the coast of southern Provence, known as the Côte d'Azur, you'll find a string of delightful resorts with several
villas in Provence to book including St Raphael. The nearby Esteril mountains offer a range of thrilling activities from horse riding to climbing and mountain biking. It's also a Mecca for sailors having no less than 5 harbours! If sports are your thing then the 3-bedroom Villa Mas Des Fleurs built into the hillside above St Raphael, is only a couple of kilometres from the renowned Valescure golf course. F Scott Fitzgerald was a big fan of St Raphael and wrote a large part of the Great Gatsby while staying here. No doubt he would have taken some time out from writing to visit Cannes. This stylish centre started life as a fishing village 150 years ago, now it's impossibly glamorous as are the
villas in Provence that we have here. The 6- bedroom Provence Villa Estérel at Théoule sur Mer is literally embedded into the hillside of the Estérel Massif with views to the mountains. The sea views from your spacious terrace are stunning and Cannes a short drive away. Here you can stroll along one of the most famous promenades in the world The Croisette and soak up the essence of this elegant city. Contact us now to find out more about our villas in Provence.
