Maison Givenchy

About this property

Maison Givenchy sits on a leafy hillside within a residential part of the French Riviera. With sprawling countryside all around, picturesque town after town and a glistening coastline packed with golden beaches, this region has it all and this stunning house offers the perfect base for your holiday here.

Pure bliss awaits at Maison Givenchy, whether you are relaxing on a sun lounger surrounded by palm trees and the scent of lavender, taking a swim or sipping on a drink from the comfort of one of the outdoor lounge areas. Spend summer nights tucking into al-fresco meals at the vine-covered dining table, enjoying produce from the local boulangerie or the nearest vineyard.

It’s not just outside that oozes French charm. Neutral tones, quality fixtures and tasteful décor combine with authentic touches to create delightful interiors. With two living rooms, two dining areas, a traditional country-style kitchen and a more modern one too, there is ample space for the whole group to gather in elegant surrounds.

The house sleeps up to 14 guests across six spacious and bright bedrooms, including three rooms with queen-size beds and en-suite bathrooms and one room with two sets of bunk beds ideal for children. Some of the rooms feature doors opening out onto the gorgeous Provençal garden and some benefit from balconies overlooking the lush greenery outdoors and the beautiful scenery beyond.

Within just a 30-minute drive of Maison Givenchy you could be exploring pretty market towns such as Opio, Mougins and Valbonne, or hiking in the Côte d'Azur hinterland. Grasse, which is renowned for its perfume making as well as its popular farmers market, is also nearby.

The beaches of Cannes and Antibes offer soft sand, bustling promenades lined with restaurants and a range of activities including waterskiing, paragliding and jet skiing. Ferries depart regularly from these cities’ ports to glamourous Saint Tropez, loved for its high-end boutiques, summer beach bars and charming old town.

Closer to home you will also find restaurants, shops and a handful of excellent golf courses less than 10 minutes’ drive away.

Maison Givenchy enjoys a prime position within the French Riviera, just 10km from the stunning coastline and beaches of Cannes and Antibes. The Côte d'Azur hinterland, with its ravines, olive groves and countless picturesque villages can also be found just beyond your doorstep.

Being in a residential area means you are within easy reach of a range of facilities. A 30-minute walk downhill or a quick 5-minute drive takes you from the comfort of your villa to a handful of local restaurants, cafés and shops, as well as a cinema.

Within a 10-minute drive you will also find three fantastic golf courses, making Maison Givenchy the perfect getaway for a golf enthusiast!

When you wish to explore further afield you will be spoilt for choice. The nearby town of Grasse is not to be missed, thanks to its rich perfume-making heritage. You can visit the town’s museums to learn more about its history and even go to the studios to see how some well-known brands make their fragrances. In addition to heavenly scents, Grasse also boasts a popular farmer’s market.

Mougins is just 5km away and is a pretty medieval village made up of narrow streets lined with flowers and cypress trees. Perched on a hilltop, it offers spectacular views as far as the coast. Other idyllic villages within easy reach include Valbonne, where you will find another great market, and Opio, which is surrounded by olive groves and produces some of the region’s finest olive oil as a result.

Half an hour’s drive takes you to the shores of the Mediterranean and glorious sandy beaches. Plage Du Midi and Plage Croisette in Cannes offer crystal-clear sea, palm-tree lined promenades and a large selection of restaurants and seasonal bars. Umbrellas and sun-loungers are available to hire and there are dozens of watersport activities to try out, including surfing, diving and inflatable rides.

Dotted along the coast towards Antibes you will find plenty of other beaches, from long stretches of crowded shoreline to quieter sandy coves. Just 20km away is the gorgeous beach at Villeneuve-Loubet, where there are more watersports and boat hire on offer.

Catch a ferry from the ports in Cannes and Antibes to one of the jewels of the French Riviera – Saint Tropez. Among the glamourous yachts, glitzy boutiques and fancy restaurants there is a charming old town and historic sites to be discovered.
