Villa Cote D’Azur France

A private French Riviera hideaway, yet only a very short drive to the exclusive beach clubs of Saint Tropez’ Plage de Pampelonne, Villa Côte d’Azur is a tranquil paradise set in stunning gardens and woodland with its own heated pool, private tennis court and helipad.
Villa Côte d’Azur exudes an air of understated luxury with its terracotta tiled floors and traditional Provençal interiors. A fruit basket, flowers, groceries, wine and champagne are there for your arrival and guests can also expect daily house-keeping alongside the possibility of on-site concierge services.  
Across this beautiful home, natural tones and graceful décor add to an ambience of space and light. Air-conditioned throughout, the spacious wood-beamed living room opens out to the covered terrace and barbecue for summer dining at its best or prepare feasts in the perfectly equipped French kitchen.
The seven inviting en-suite bedrooms are scattered across the villa, all with doors opening to terraces or balconies, including a studio-style apartment on the lower floor. Even the bathrooms are so pretty, most with romantic bathtubs or walk-in showers.
It’s such a quiet setting, within 3.5 hectares of enclosed grounds featuring oaks, pines and glorious gardens. After a game of tennis on your private court, relax beneath the shade of the al-fresco lounge or find a serene spot by the grand fountain. The heated swimming pool, gated for young guests’ safety, enjoys a vast terrace for sunbathing and dining al-fresco by the poolside summer kitchen.
Passing woodland and vineyards, it’s just over a 5-minute drive down to the sandy shores and exclusive beach clubs of Plage de Pampelonne, Saint-Tropez’ famous beach which also features a vast range of summer watersports. Reserve your place by the pool, restaurant or champagne bar at internationally renowned Nikki Beach or experience the casual vibe at the legendary Le Club 55.
Venture up to the gorgeous village of Ramatuelle, set above Pampelonne Beach, where you can potter around the narrow lanes visiting little art galleries and characterful restaurants, then drive across the winding lanes to soak up the glamour of historic Saint-Tropez, with its upmarket yet charming reputation.
Explore the Mediterranean by private yacht, head out for lunch in picture-perfect spots such as Gassin and Grimaud, hike or cycle through the Maures landscapes or walk along La Croix Valmer coastline – all superb ways to discover the incredible natural beauty of this part of the French Riviera. Villa Côte d’Azur is in the Var department of southern France, close to the glitz of Saint-Tropez. Reached via an unsurfaced road, this holiday home enjoys such a beautiful and private setting within 3.5 hectares of stunning gardens and woodland, including a private tennis court and helipad. Yet you are only a 7-minute drive from Saint Tropez’ famous Plage de Pampelonne and exclusive beach clubs such as Le Club 55 and Nikki Beach.
A long stretch of sandy shore, gaze out to yachts resting in the bay as you soak up the ambience of Pampelonne Beach, only 2.5km away.  Book ahead if you wish to experience one of the much-loved beach clubs and restaurants, especially in July and August. There is also a great range of watersports along the beach including sea-kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, windsurfing, jet-ski, pedaloes and more.
The former fishing village of Saint-Tropez is 7km away. Experience its charm as you explore the town’s old quarter with its narrow lanes, pretty shops and traditional restaurants, and visit the atmospheric Provençal market on Place des Lices. Of course, there’s also the exclusive boutiques, high-end restaurants and mega yachts in the marina with many A-list celebrities attracted to Saint Tropez’s picture-perfect yet upmarket vibe.
Even closer is the gorgeous hilltop village of Ramatuelle (5km), perched high above Pampelonne beach with the most glorious views of the Mediterranean. With pretty flower-filled lanes, little art galleries and some lovely restaurants, it’s the perfect spot for a relaxing lunch in characterful surroundings.
The traditional villages of Gassin (7km) and Grimaud (17km) are also beautiful places to visit or venture further into the Côte d’Azur hinterland to La Môle (24km) in the Maures hills, a paradise for hikers and experienced cyclists, and La Garde-Freinet (27km), a fortified 11th century village surrounded by cork oaks and chestnut groves.
Guests seeking the authenticity of the French Riviera will also adore the coastline around La Croix Valmer, known for its vineyards, coastal walking trails, beachside restaurants and incredible natural scenery. Plage de Gigaro (15km) and Plage de Sylvabelle (13km) are two wonderful beaches to discover, especially idyllic in quieter months.
