Overview
The panoramic views towards the bay of Cannes are outstanding from this beautiful holiday villa set close to the idyllic village of Mougins, the perfect base for exploring the delights of the French Riviera.
Le Balcon de Cannes offers understated elegance alongside a great sense of comfort with traditional yet stylish interiors. Wood beamed ceilings and grand stone fireplaces contrast touches of contemporary décor and impressive works of art. We love the high ceilings of the spacious living-dining area and the blue hues of the striking TV room. Four bedrooms sleep up to 10 guests, including a gorgeous master bedroom with a splendid en suite, two further doubles and bathrooms and a fourth bedroom with bunk-beds that will appeal to families.
Across the wonderful terraced grounds, find a shady spot for morning croissants and coffee or simply relax by the swimming pool where you can make the most of the incredible landscapes of distant hills and the Mediterranean. Summer feasts await by the barbecue on warm evenings in such beautiful surroundings.
Enchanting Mougins, famed for its art and gastronomy, is only 4km away – there are more vistas to be admired from this hilltop village or just spend time exploring its flower-filled medieval lanes. The glamour of Cannes is also close by with so many shops, restaurants, markets, beaches and boat trips. Not to mention one of France’s most famous boulevards, La Croisette, and the renowned Palais des Festivales.
There’s more glorious beaches close to Juan-Les-Pins and beyond, then there’s the beauty of Cap d’Antibes and its walking trails or the charm of Antibes’ historic old town. A little further afield, spend the day in Nice and Monaco or discover the allure of Côte d'Azur hinterland with the market town of Valbonne, the perfume studios of Grasse and yet more hilltop villages dotted across the landscapes of pine, olive and cypress trees.

Location
About the surrounding area of Le Balcon De CannesLe Balcon de Cannes is set in the hills behind Cannes, close to charming Mougins in the Alpes-Maritimes department of southern France, an ideal base for exploring the French Riviera and its beautiful hinterland.
On a lane winding through a residential area, enjoy amazing views out towards the Bay of Cannes from your perched position. Conveniently set back from La Provençale, it is also a great location for Nice Airport, under half an hour away by car.
The picture-postcard village of Mougins is 4km away, one of the Côte d'Azur’s most loved villages and once home to Pablo Picasso. There are more stunning views towards Cannes from its hilltop position when not exploring the warren of flower-lined medieval lanes filled with historic houses, little shops and inviting places to eat. Indeed, the village has a reputation for both art and gastronomy – an international festival of gastronomy takes place annually in June.
Heading down towards the coast, Cannes is around 6km away with its glorious sandy beaches, boat trips and watersports. There’s also the beauty of the town to discover from the historic quarter, Le Suquet, and the old port to La Croisette, one of France’s most famous boulevards. Cannes has a renowned reputation for its shopping, glamourous nightlife, vibrant markets and of course the Palais des Festivales.
Yet more gorgeous French Riviera beaches can be found around Juan-Les-Pins (12km), a chic seaside resort much loved by Parisians in the height of the summer with a number of beachside restaurants and vibrant bar scene. Walkers will adore Cap d'Antibes with its pretty coves and incredible coastal trails whilst the old town of Antibes (13km) is also a must-see with its historic ramparts and enchanting lanes.
Further along the coast, Nice (35km) and Monaco (55km) make fine days out, perhaps passing yet more picturesque spots such as Cap Ferrat, Beaulieu-sur-Mer and Èze. Or hop on a ferry in Cannes and spend the day soaking up the tranquillity of the Lérins Islands, known for their idyllic beaches, fascinating history and wonderful walking trails.
There is also so much to explore across the Côte d'Azur hinterland from hilltop villages such as Biot and Opio to historic market towns including Grasse and Valbonne – the bustling Friday morning market in Valbonne is one of the best. Golf lovers have a great range of courses to choose from, including the prestigious Royal Mougins Golf Resort around 7km away, whilst keen hikers of all ages will love the many walking trails this region offers, especially through the nearby Valmasque forest.

Best Suited For: All AgesLe Balcon de Cannes enjoys an attractive setting with the beaches of the French Riviera so close as well as the delights of the Côte d'Azur hinterland nearby.
Of course, the sandy shores of the Mediterranean will be one of the most appealing aspects to many families from the glamourous beach in central Cannes to small yet idyllic bays on Cap d’Antibes. Not forgetting the beachside restaurants and family-friendly beaches of Juan-Les-Pins – watersports can be found here and across much of this part of the Côte d'Azur. There’s also a wealth of boat trips and other water-based activities as well as ferries out to the picturesque Lérins Islands.
The Valmasque forest is a wonderful area for family walks with shady paths, picnic tables and play areas. Youngsters may also love watching the lotus flowers when they are in bloom on the Etang de Fontmerle, only 4km away.
The incredible natural landscapes around Grasse are home to a tree-top adventure centre and paint-balling or for more touristy attractions, head just north of Antibes for Marineland, mini-golf, Kid’s Island and amusement/water parks.
