PR1321 La Balade A Pied

French Riviera villa Valbonne centre - La Balade a Pied is tucked away in an attractive wooded residential domaine in Valbonne. A pleasant fifteen-minute stroll along the path that runs alongside the river Brague will bring you into the centre of this pretty, lively village.

Balade à Pied is a light, bright and airy villa with comfortable covered sun terraces outside, a refreshing infinity pool with a beach entrance and paddling area, and space for children to play - all surrounded by mature palm, pine, lemon and orange trees.

With Valbonnes restaurants, pavement cafés and shops at your fingertips you may not want to stray far, but you will find that you are also extremely well-placed for visits to many other "must-sees" of the Cote d'Azur. The principal towns of Grasse, Antibes, Nice and Cannes are all within easy reach, as are villages such as pretty Biot, Cabris with its panoramic views and great restaurants, and picturesque Gourdon, a perched village located away from the coast towards the Alpes d'Azur mountains. There are many sports and activities available in this area too, from riverside walks along the Sentier de la Brague between Valbonne and Biot - a good path that is easy to follow without a map and will take three hours end to end - to hiking, horse-riding and golf: go-karting and paintballing are to be found at Gourdon and the Canyon Forest adventure park is just down the road at Villeneuve Loubet.

For days out at the seaside head to Antibes, where you will find beaches, a pretty harbour and attractive old town; neighbouring Juan les Pins offers more nightlife, and also the famous Jazz à Juan festival at the end of July. This French Riviera villa Valbonne centre makes the perfect base for a very memorable holiday for all.
