The Neighborhood
Surrounded by olive trees, close to the charming market town of Valbonne, La Voile de Soleil enjoys the best of both worlds being close to idyllic villages and only 14km from glamourous Cannes and the beaches of the French Riviera. This is a semi-rural setting, backed by a small olive grove, with other villas dotted around the area. Wander out of your home and within 1.5km you will reach a handful of restaurants and a supermarket in the local village. The enchanting market town of Valbonne (3km) is also minutes away (or a leisurely half hour walk) with its 16th century cobbled lanes, beautiful houses and a charming central square with picturesque cafes. The Friday morning market is a delight and there’s also an antiques/flea market on the first Sunday of each month. Spend time exploring artisan shops and pretty galleries as you stroll through this beautiful town. Other idyllic hilltop villages across this region include Opio (4km), Mougins (8km) and Biot (12km), all mesmerising places filled with history and charm – perfect for a morning coffee or a spot of lunch. Grasse (7km) is another splendid town, the perfume capital of France with historic lanes, relaxing fountains and yet more authentic restaurants. A visit to one of the perfume factories is a fascinating trip out or simply be inspired by the wonderful landscapes surrounding Grasse with olive groves, lavender fields and sweet-scented summer flowers. The sea is never far away with the beaches of the Côte d'Azur within a short drive. Cannes (14km) is a great place for soaking up the glitzy vibe, relaxing on the city beach or just wandering around the impressive marina. Look out for a range of watersports nearby as well as boat trips departing to a variety of places such as Monaco, Saint Tropez and the peaceful Îles de Lérins. The French Riviera is also home to some brilliant beaches around Juan-les-Pins and Antibes (18km) or head to the dramatic setting of Théoule-sur-Mer (26km). You are also well positioned for cool hikes through the nearby Valbonne woods with marked walking trails – there is a particularly lovely walk between Valbonne and Biot, following La Brague river. Alternatively, drive further inland towards the rugged mountains around Le Bar-sur-Loup (10km) and Gourdon (14km). Look out for waterfalls and summer swimming in natural rock pools. Horse-riding is another spectacular way to appreciate the stunning scenery of this region. Golf-lovers note it is just a 5-minute drive to one of the Côte d'Azur's many famous golf courses – this one an 18-hole course with wonderful views. Golf Opio Valbonne, Victoria Golf Club and the famous Royal Mougins Golf Resort are also a short drive away.
