Set in a private family estate featuring the guests' villa and a 13th century fortress next to it, Bastide des Remparts is a unique and historical home in a privileged position on the French Riviera with wonderful views over the ancient trees stretching down towards the sea and just half an hour from Nice.
A unique paradise, the family 8.5 hectare estate is one of the Côte d’Azur’s oldest and most beautiful properties, surrounded by captivating landscapes and glorious gardens were you can get lost for hours discovering it's hundreds of palm trees, ancient olive trees and colourful flowers.
The bastide dates back to 1836 and enjoys a spectacular hilltop location where you can look out towards the Mediterranean as far as Cap d’Antibes and Cap Ferrat. Inside you will find an elegant home which has been beautifully refurbished to provide seven delightful bedrooms, decorated and furnished with refined taste and character throughout. Downstairs the living and dining rooms have French doors opening up to Provençal gardens and there are wonderful spaces to relax outside including a truly remarkable al-fresco dining area where you can feast with family and friends in the shade of a 250-year old oak tree.

Guests will be welcomed with a complimentary case of Crus Classés wine.
