Experience the very best of the Côte d'Azur hinterland at this wonderful villa close to Grasse, the perfume capital of France.
Across this spacious bastide and its guesthouse, up to 17 guests can embrace its French charm and exquisite character. Step into the main house’s beautifully tiled floors and appreciate the space across its lounge, dining room and rustic French kitchen with doors leading out to the various terraces surrounding the bastide.
Stairs wind upstairs to a TV lounge in the hallway, a library (which also acts as a sleeping area) and six pretty bedrooms, most with an en suite shower or bathroom. A separate pretty guesthouse, just near the entrance of the grounds, sleeps 4-6 further guests and features its own lounge and fully-equipped kitchen.
Across the vast grounds so typical of Provence, admire the many olive and cypress trees and wander past summer roses, then up the steps to the glorious swimming pool. A magnificently arched pool house also awaits, just perfect for spending long summer days in the romantic surroundings of your garden and pool.
In a partially residential quarter, you are just a 4km drive from the heart of historic Grasse with its narrow medieval lanes, perfume studios, café terraces, daily flower market and grand Cathédrale Notre-Dame Du Puy. Visit nearby Valbonne on a Friday morning for one of the area’s best markets and venture to other picture-perfect villages dotted across the landscapes such as Opio, known for its olive oil, and artistic Mougins which was once so loved by Picasso.
Down by the French Riviera coastline, around half an hour away, soak up the glamour of Cannes and potter around historic Antibes before finding a palm-fringed beach or picturesque bay to swim in the Mediterranean. Return to the beauty of Maison Frédéric in this very special part of southern France.

Location
About the surrounding area of Maison FredericIn the Alpes-Maritimes department of Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur, Maison Frédéric enjoys a picturesque setting surrounded by 18,000m2 of wonderful gardens in a semi-residential district around 4km from Grasse.
In the outskirts of Grasse, you are merely a 2km drive from useful amenities including a choice of supermarkets and the Canal de la Siagne also passes very nearby, perfect for pleasant walks or jogs. The heart of historic Grasse is just over 4km away, famed for its perfume heritage and home to the Musée International de la Parfumerie. As you explore the charming town, come across its market at Place aux Herbes and admire the pretty cafes, shops, restaurants and bars. The 12th century Cathédrale Notre-Dame Du Puy houses impressive 17th century paintings by Rúben.
Elsewhere, visit the market town of Valbonne (6.5km) on a Friday morning for one of the region’s best Provençal market whilst the pretty village of Opio (7km) is known for its olive oil. Further inland, follow the winding road towards perched Gourdon (15km) with its sensational views back towards the French Riviera, or venture towards Cabris (11km) to dine out in one of its restaurants.
Towards the coast, follow the footsteps of Picasso in Mougins (10km), a flower-filled village with art galleries and gastronomic restaurants, before reaching the glamourous town of Cannes (16km) with its beaches, boutiques and boat trips. It’s a wonderful place to spend the day, not just because of its glitzy reputation, but also for the opportunity to soak up its authentic side at Cannes’ bustling markets or as you potter around its old quarter, Le Suquet.
Historic Antibes (20km) is also full of charm whilst Cap d'Antibes is a paradise for walkers keen to follow the peninsula’s coastal trails. The chic resort of Juan-les-Pins (20km) is the place to go for beachside restaurants and also offers watersports and boat trips whilst there is a wealth of family attractions just north of Antibes around Marineland.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThere is plenty to appeal to families with children of all ages in and around Grasse. Soak up the ambience of historic Grasse, take a ride on its weekend/holiday carrousel and enjoy a tour of the town on the little tourist road train. Older children may also appreciate a trip to the renowned perfume studios and Musée International de la Parfumerie.
Just north of the town, Riviera Nature features tree-top trails/activities for children aged 4+ (dependent on height) with amazing views down to the coast. Find go-karting and paint-balling just outside of Grasse as well.
There are some lovely family walks and picnic spots in the Valmasque Forest or continue onwards to several family attractions just north of Antibes including Marineland, Kid’s Island, Antibes Land Park and more.
Not to mention the glorious beaches of the French Riviera – take your pick from the sandy shores of Juan-les-Pins to the palm-fringed beaches of Cannes, both also offering boat trips as well as a good choice of watersports.
