Laid-back luxury on the Côte d'Azur - 2 magnificent villas available for romantic B&B, family hols by the sea, or weekly rental for groups of up to 20 Fancy the romance of the Riviera but find the glitz and glamour exhausting? Then head to Villa Mauresque, an upmarket but chilled-out B&B. Situated between Cannes and St Tropez, it escapes the Côte d’Azur’s crowds, but has a fabulous sea-front location. The atmosphere is laid-back, the service friendly and unobtrusive, and it’s flanked by 30 beautiful beaches. Designed in 1860 by Riviera architect Chapoulard, the 2 big turreted villas are hidden within rose-coloured walls amongst tranquil, palm-lined gardens. Grand neo-Moorish facades conceal comfy, homely interiors; each villa has its own sitting room, kitchen and dining room. Bedrooms are big and bold, some with Moroccan rugs and painted doors, others stately fireplaces and brass-crowned four-posters; most overlook the turquoise sea. Whether you come à deux or book an entire villa, the laid-back nature of the place is blissful. No formal grandeur, no dressing for dinner – it’s all about lazing by the pool, going waterskiing or sailing from the private jetty, and relaxing utterly.
