Location

On the French Riviera just outside Monaco, La Residence is set in an elevated position only a short walk from Cap d’Ail’s boulangerie and shops. It’s a great location for exploring the Côte d'Azur - Nice can be reached in around 20 minutes as the villa is conveniently placed just below the road that connects Monaco to the A8 autoroute and beyond.

It’s just a 5-minute drive across to Monaco, an incredible principality with four districts including the old town where you can stroll a warren of picturesque lanes and discover beautiful buildings such as St Nicholas Cathedral and Place du Palais. Spend time in Monte-Carlo and the famous Place du Casino to experience the high-life or head to the Codamine district and visit the atmospheric daily market where you can pick up all sorts of Provençal delights. Keen shoppers will also love the designer names on show in many of the boutiques found across Monaco.

Cap d’Ail is known to be home to many picturesque beaches, all just a short distance from your villa. Plage Marquet has shallow, clear waters and summer watersports such as kayaking and catamarans whilst there are other stunning beaches dotted along this part of the Côte d'Azur accessed via little paths, rocks and steps.

Further along the coast towards Nice, other beautiful French resorts include Èze-sur-Mer and Beaulieu or discover the beauty of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat with is amazing walking paths and coastal scenery. In the other direction, Menton is a pretty seaside town close to the Italian border that was especially loved by British aristocracy in the 19th century.

Nice is of course another fine day out with its galleries, shops and markets or continue onwards to other gems of the French Riviera such as Antibes and Cannes, around an hour by car (or train). Not to mention many idyllic villages inland from nearby Èze to St Paul de Vence, Mougins and even Grasse a little further.

The picturesque village of La Turbie, around 6km away, is home to the Michelin starred Hostellerie Jerome as well as the impressive remains of Roman Trophee d'Auguste and its small museum. There are some beautiful walks from the village such as towards Tête de Chien with an amazing viewpoint of Monaco and then down to Cap-d'Ail. The GR51 Côte d'Azur walking route passes through the village and it’s a popular area for rock-climbers too.

Getting to and around

The Provençal way of life is one that’s deeply tempting for anyone who’s been feeling the need to get away from it all. This is a place where the Mediterranean weather turns fields of corn and lavender into picture-perfect backdrops, where you can sip your locally bought wine and enjoy the landscapes before heading out and tackling them head-on with a range of great activities for families, groups of friends and adventurous foodies. Better yet, our range of villas in Provence and chateaux and holiday homes in the Côte d’Azur make the perfect base to explore this enchanting region!
