Domaine du Foulon, Cote d Azur, France

Only 40 minutes drive from Nice International Airport, Le Foulon is a grand residence with beautiful mountain panoramas from every window. Well connected for day trips to all the Cote d'Azur has to offer (Monaco, Nice, Antibes, Cannes), but secluded enough to be as restful as you wish.

We offer space for all - with a very large lounge and dining area, separate library and adjoining double height conservatory, large barbecue deck and an 11m heated pool. Not to mention 15 acres of river fronted countryside and long country walks from our doorstep.

Rent the whole property with as little as 12 people for 7 nights and enjoy self-catering in a large semi-commercial kitchen. Alternatively visit Le Foulon as a b&b and experience fine food and wine, plus good company, all served by your relaxed English hosts.

We even offer very good value 3 night weekend breaks for 16-26 people. And a luxury French mansion won't cost a fortune - low season prices for 18 people self-catering cost as little as €33 per person per night.

Our bed and breakfast rates are from €95 per night for two people including a fine continental breakfast with fresh pastries delivered daily by Patrick the local baker.

Nearby you are met with warm smiles from locals not saturated with tourists, despite our proximity to the Riviera. Medieval villages cook up local specialities enjoyed by locals and visitors alike, there are a host of adventure activities to hand, from beginners canoeing through white water rapids to tandem paragliding jumps. Rock climbing to karting and during a short Winter season even skiing just 20 minutes drive away, with the reward of a view down to the Mediterranean.

Sounds like everything you could wish for? So did we, which is why we left our UK careers and have spent the last 5 years bringing this gem of a property up to the high standard it is today.
