Cannes Villa Ste Genevieve

Imagine staying in an elegant, pastel French villa with its own private pool, set amidst the hills between La Colle-sur-Loup and the arty town of St Paul de Vence. Imagine no longer, Villa Ste Genevieve is this place, and just five miles from the coast, it's a perfect base for a family or larger group.

Sitting comfortably in its Mediterranean surroundings, with splendid views over the the rolling countryside and the town of St Paul de Vence, this is a lovely place to while away the hours, whether it's at the lovely pergola terrace or sitting by the pool watching the children splashing around. From the outside the villa is as pretty as a picture, and inside you'll find elegant French furniture and colorful fabrics to complement it, giving it a distinct European feel. But, Villa Ste Genevieve maintains a warm, welcoming atmosphere, making it feel a real 'home from home.'

If you like dining out, and in France, who wouldn't? There's two renowned restaurants just under a mile away, offering the chance to taste some fine French cuisine. In fact, you'll find many restaurants in the villages around the region, and of course in St Paul de Vence itself, amongst its many galleries. If you'd like a trip to the beach, Cagnes Sur Mer and Nice are nearby, and if you want to wander around a market, there's the weekly one at Vence Old Town. For a visit to some special glass factories, head to pretty Biot, and Antibes for Marineland and the Aqua Park. Something for everyone...

A perched village on the French Riviera, Saint-Paul-de-Vence is a little place with a big name. Just look at the personalities seduced by the atmosphere, landscapes and clear light: Marc Chagall, Henri Matisse, James Baldwin, the list goes on.

Being in Saint Paul de fence means following a path beaten by the leading lights of 20th-century culture, as you’ll tell at the Fondation Maeght, an art museum like you’ve never seen. Saint-Paul-de-Vence is as adorable as it is tiny, but there’s no end of places to visit in the car, none of which take more than half an hour to get to. This could be a day at the beach at Cagnes, an excursion inland to an epic gorge or an afternoon of culture and sightseeing in Nice.
