Overview
Stay in a beautifully renovated mas with a stunning swimming pool close to the artistic village of Mougins, renowned for its gastronomic restaurants, and only 8km from the glamour of Cannes and the French Riviera.
Mas Eugénie exudes character with its traditional interiors, low wood beams and exposed stone walls and it has been sensitively restored to bring it into the 21st century. Stroll up the stone steps to the entrance on the first floor where you will find a traditional lounge, dining area and French country kitchen. Upstairs are two double bedrooms (one with two single beds as well) and a family bathroom whilst the third bedroom and its en suite shower room can be found on the lower floor, accessed independently.
Outside the garden is simply glorious with its terraced levels and pretty outlook. The brand new summer kitchen is a joy thanks to its plancha and al-fresco dining table whilst the swimming pool awaits for hours of fun in gorgeous surroundings.
This is a fantastic location only 2km from the heart of historic Mougins (the fittest of guests may be able to venture up to the hilltop village on foot). This iconic Côte d'Azur village is where Picasso spent the last years of his life – its enchanting lanes and surrounding landscapes still inspire artists and little galleries can be found throughout the village. Mougins is also known for its gastronomy with a range of high-end restaurants and the famous three-day food festival in September.
The allure of Cannes also awaits just a short distance away with its palm-fringed beaches, glitzy boutiques and charming old quarter whilst Juan-Les-Pins, Antibes, Nice and even Monaco are other wonderful days out.
You are also well placed for exploring the incredible landscapes of the Côte d'Azur hinterland from the olive groves surrounding the perched village of Opio to Valbonne’s historic Friday morning market and Grasse’s perfume studios, all to be found in this captivating and varied region of southern France.
What you should know…
- Two of the bedrooms are part of the main house on the upper floor whilst the third bedroom is on the lower level, accessed independently from the outside.
- Guests need to be able to manage steps from the parking area up to the main level. It’s also worth noting that there are some low beams across this characterful house (around 1.9m high).
- Take care across the grounds which are on different levels.
- Please note that there is an open boundary with the neighbour at the bottom of the garden and that children should be supervised at all times.
- Please note that the bedroom on the lower level does not have air-conditioning, but a fan is available.

Location
About the surrounding area of Mas EugenieOnly 8km from Cannes and the beaches of the French Riviera, Mas Eugénie is located just outside the artistic village of Mougins in the Alpes-Maritimes department of south-east France. If arriving by plane, Nice Airport is around half an hour away whilst the TGV/Ouigo train services from Paris Gare de Lyon to Nice usually stop in Cannes.
Mougins is one of the Côte d'Azur’s iconic hilltop villages and the most adventurous/fittest of guests could even walk there. Even closer, by the main road below the village, are useful amenities such as a small supermarket, tabac etc.
The historic heart of Mougins is a joy to explore with its winding lanes, pretty fountains, little art galleries and excellent restaurants. Once the home to Pablo Picasso, the village is also renowned for its gastronomy - Les Etoiles de Mougins is a three day food festival in September which attracts visitors from across the world.
Venture slightly further south and within 8km you can be soaking up the vibrant ambience of Cannes with its famous boulevard, La Croisette, and palm-fringed beach alongside its marina, boutiques, glitzy bars and restaurants, old quarter and of course the Palais des Festivals. From Cannes you can catch a ferry across to the quieter shores of the Îles de Lérins.
Antibes is another gem of the French Riviera with its enchanting old quarter, home to the Picasso Museum, and the magnificent coastal walking paths around the exclusive Cap d’Antibes. Juan-Les-Pins (15km) is the playground of Parisians in the height of the summer and much-loved for its sandy shores, beachside restaurants and seasonal water-based activities.
If you can find the time, Nice (33km), Cap Ferrat (44km) and Monaco (55km) are waiting to be explored, alongside many pretty beaches along this part of the Côte d'Azur, or follow the coastal road west towards the incredible landscapes around Théoule-sur-Mer (21km) backed by the Massif de l’Estérel.
Then there’s other gorgeous villages such as Biot (13km), Opio (9km) and Gourdon (18km) and the picturesque market town of Valbonne (5km), a must-visit on a Friday morning. The perfume studios of Grasse (12km) also await, as do the glorious walking paths and beautiful scenery of this part of the Côte d'Azur hinterland.

Region
Despite being renowned for its annual international film festival in May at the iconic Palais des Festivals, Cannes is not just a glamourous destination for the rich and famous. The attractive Côte d’Azur town is loved all year round for its palm-fringed beaches, upmarket shopping opportunities and wonderful restaurants as well as a certain French Riviera charm.
Stroll along Cannes’ iconic La Croisette boulevard following the footsteps of stars from years gone by as you admire prestigious hotels, luxurious boutiques and private beach clubs. Stop off for a cocktail as the sun sets and admire the twinkling lights across the bay. Even at night, La Croisette remains the vibrant heart of this bustling town.
Shop to your heart’s delight along the streets of the Carré d’Or district – come across hundreds of well-known stores along Rue d’Antibes. At the end of a busy day there’s a vast choice of restaurants to suit every taste and budget from authentic bistros spilling out on to the street to Michelin starred establishments.
Soak up the historic side of Cannes as you explore Le Suquet quarter’s medieval lanes passing little shops, atmospheric restaurants, flower-filled balconies and old fishermen’s houses. Climb to the top of the hill by Église Notre-Dame d'Espérance for stunning views of the harbour, followed by a visit to Château de la Castre and its popular museum. This part of Cannes is also home to the colourful Marché Forville showcasing the very best gourmet delights of Cannes and beyond.
Escape the crowds as you venture to Croix Des Gardes natural park with forest walking routes, botanical plants and glorious views across to the Lérins Islands. Look out for some fantastic boat trips from Cannes’ marina from whale and dolphin-watching excursions to family adventures on board a chartered yacht, sight-seeing ferries and romantic sun-set cruises.
Beyond the city centre, visit the ceramic studios and National Picasso Museum in Vallauris, follow Picasso’s footsteps in the enchanting hilltop village of Mougins (loved for its galleries and gastronomy) and appreciate the artistic vibe of Biot with beautiful views of the French Riviera. Chic Juan-les-Pins, so loved by Parisians in the summer, is home to beachside restaurants and more watersports whilst keen walkers will adore the incredible coastal trail around Cap d’Antibes.
In the other direction is the charming seaside village of Théoule-sur-Mer, backed by the dramatic Esterel massif, another paradise for hikers. By staying in one of our collection of handpicked rentals in Cannes you can experience all of this and more during your time on the glistening Côte d’Azur.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThis part of the French Riviera offers lots for families with children of every age.
Start off with a shady walk through the Parc naturel de la Valmasque with picnic tables and plenty of space to play. A stroll around the Étang de Fontmerle is also very picturesque whilst more adventurous families can follow the hiking trail near the Brague River between Valbonne and Biot.
There is a tree-top adventure centre and paintballing near Grasse as well as Le Bois des Lutins and Le Village des Fous near Villeneuve-Loubet. Just north of Antibes is a collection of family attractions including Marineland, Adventure Golf, Kid’s Island and Antibes Land Park.
Not to mention the glorious palm-fringed shores of Cannes, the sandy beaches of Juan-Les-Pins and many more beaches or pretty bays all the way from Théoule-sur-Mer to Monaco and beyond, plus a wide range of seasonal watersports to appeal to every age.
