We think you'll love
- Strolling 15 minutes to the beaches, restaurants and shops of Antibes and Juan-les-Pins
- Cooling off in the pool and leafy gardens – so private even though there are other houses around
- Stocking up on fresh produce at lovely Provençal markets and whipping up feasts back at home
You should know
- The house has a timeless feel – don't expect everything to come in shades of neutral
- The bathrooms are spotless but a little dated
Maupassant stayed in this house at the end of the 19th-century but it feels as if he could still be there. Tomette tiles cover the floor and there's a piano, hundreds of books, family paintings and a collection of straw hats running up the stairs. It's a peaceful haven with a wonderful garden, yet only a few minutes' walk from the beaches and restaurants of two of the Côte d'Azur's liveliest towns.
