Location
About the surrounding area of Villa PittoresqueLocated on a private estate as you approach the mountainous hamlet of Les Adrets de L'Estérel, Villa Pittoresque offers the stillness of the hills as well as proximity to Cannes and the vibrant coastline.
The amenities of the local village are 5 minutes away by car while larger stores can be found in nearby towns, within a 15-20 minute drive. There are several charming hilltop villages a short distance from the villa, providing a more immediate taste of the region's scenic and historic allure. Fayence is renowned for its medieval architecture, narrow streets and panoramic scenery of the Var countryside, in addition to the lively town centre and local markets. Montaroux, also close by, features narrow alleys, traditional stone houses and views of the surrounding vineyards.
The villa is just 3km from the La Provençale highway, offering convenient access to the coast and other towns. Market days in Grasse, to the north, are a must; enjoy taking in its perfume heritage, lavender fields and scenic hills dotted with vineyards. The vibrant Mandelieu-La Napoule, 16km away, features a rugged coastline that dramatically drops into the sea. Southwards, you'll find family-friendly beaches in Saint-Raphael and Sainte-Maxime, ideal for a day of sun and sand. The elegant city of Cannes boasts the La Croisette promenade, renowned beaches, and the famous annual film festival held every May. Also worth visiting are Nice with its picturesque old town, and the glamorous Saint-Tropez.
For outdoorsy types, the region offers an abundance of activities. Enjoy water sports (in the sea or nearby Lac de Saint-Cassien), golfing, hiking, biking, and horse-riding both along the coast and inland.
