The Côte d’Azur

The Côte d’Azur, also known as the French Riviera, encompasses the Mediterranean coast from the municipality of Bandol in the Var department through to the Italian border in the Alpes Maritimes department. 
Especially lively in high season, a great deal of its fame comes from its pebble or sandy beaches, as well as its long avenues like La Croisette in Cannes and the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, streets that are as famous as the Champs Elysées in Paris or 5th Avenue in New York. Yet there are also the charms of its old neighbourhoods, its Baroque churches, its flower markets and its small fishing ports.

From Pégomas, the Riviera is yours to explore in under 20 minutes by car. The great beaches of Mandelieu-la-Napoule and Cannes provide the perfect decor for holidays on the coast.

Famed throughout the world, the Côte d’Azur invites you to explore its many wonders – Nice, its capital; Cannes and the Lérins Islands with Sainte-Marguerite and Saint-Honorat; the Corniche d’Or, a road offering one of the best views over the Côte d’Azur; the pine forest of Juan-les-Pins in Antibes; Saint-Paul-de-Vence and the Fondation Maeght; Èze, one of the Most Beautiful Villages in France and a true eagle’s nest overlooking the Mediterranean; Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild; the legendary Saint-Tropez and its port; the Cap d’Ail; the Principality of Monaco, the Riviera’s ultimate glamorous destination; and Menton, the pearl of the French Riviera, renowned for its delicately fragrant lemons. 

When you stay at the Hotel du Bosquet in Pégomas, you’ll be able to fully explore the Côte d’Azur with its remarkable gardens, its idyllic beaches, its exceptional natural sites across capes and islands, as well as its picturesque villages located between the sea and the hills.
