Rose wine a Cote d’Azur specialty is so a la mode in the UK at the moment and I can understand why.For many years I have enjoyed a cool glass of rose (pronounced “rosay”) with a meal in the Cote d’Azur in France and have often wondered why its popularity failed to transmit from the south of France to elsewhere.I had put it down to the climate and imagined that because it does taste so good when you are in a lovely warm climate, sat on a terrace overlooking the sea or a beautiful Mediterranean garden that maybe it just...

Isola 2000 Christmas ski report following my day in resort yesterday.NEW for 2012 is the digital ski pass system. Your card goes in the top left hand pocket, it gets scanned as you approach the barrier and through you go onto the lift, its much quicker.The snow has been late arriving in the Alps this year compared to recent times. It is now there in abundance in the northern Alps but the southern Alps is still a bit short. I was interested to know how this was impacting on our main southern French resort Isola 2000, so I went for a days skiing to...

Gorge du Verdon is the Grand Canyon of France and attracts numerous Cote d’Azur tourists every year.Located in the Var department the gorge is located almost due inland from Le Muy with the Lac Saint Croix at its head. The gorge is about 25km in length and in parts up to 700 metres deep.The gorge attracts visitors for a whole host of reasons. The majority just love to drive along what has to be one of the most spectacular roads in France. It certainly makes for a superb day out cruising, particularly if you can let the hood down.Others are drawn...

Monaco is a must visit Cote d’Azur attraction for any number of reasons, but if are on holiday in the Cote d’Azur you have to go.Personally I have mixed feelings about Monaco but without fail if ever I have friends visit me when I am staying in the south of France I always take them to Monaco. Its just one of those things you have to do.There are four principal areas of Monaco which I think are worth visiting, firstly there is the main old area on the hill where you will find the Royal palace, the Cathedral, the Oceanographic museum and...

Cannes Forville market is one of the big daily markets on the French Riviera.The nice thing about Cannes Forville market is that it is all covered which is great as above all it remains nice and cool! Its location just a hundred metres up the hill from the bus station by the old port area is also very nice as you can combine shopping with a drink in one of the outdoor cafes if you like. You can park nearby but I suggest you park by the railway station and walk across town to avoid the traffic in the centre.It’s a relatively big market with a big...

Renoir museum Cagnes sur mer in the Cote d’Azur is a gem of a place to visit for art lovers and families on holiday alike.Towards the end of his life Renoir built and lived in a beautiful old villa, named Collettes, set on a hillside looking towards the sea, set in large grounds with a gorgeous grove of handsome ancient olive trees, in Cagnes sur mer near Nice. Here he spent his last days where despite his great age and considerable physical handicap he continued to produce masterpieces, surrounded by family and friends.What I really like...

Pont du Gard in Provence is an astonishing Roman aqueduct which is just so huge you can’t help but think, wow, how did they do that?Located just a short drive to the west of Avignon the Pont du Gard is one of the principal attractions of Provence. Spanning the river Gard and rising to an improbable height this incredible monument to Roman engineering prowess attracts many visitors each year.When I first visited the Pont du Gard back in the 80’s it was not commercialized in quite the same way as it is today. Now you have to pay for parking...

Palais des Papes in Avignon, Provence is one of the principal attractions of one of the most culturally rich regions of France.Anyone taking a holiday in Provence should take a trip to Avignon as there really is something for everyone.

You can park just outside the wall if you get there early enough or you can go by train.Inside is a myriad of streets where you will find an intriguing selection of shops, cafes and restaurants, often in old buildings many of...

Marche de Noel in Cannes is under way and visitors can enjoy the Christmas lights and ambiance of the Christmas market by the harbour.There is something particularly charming about the Christmas market at Cannes, the stalls are set around the bandstand and nearer to the sea there is a funfair area for children.The heady smell of vin chaud, freshly cooked crepes and waffles drifts on the air and being Cannes you can even enjoy a glass of champagne in between perusing the stalls. Its not a very big Christmas market and doesn’t compare with Nice...

Caps de la Presqu’ile de Saint Tropez coastal walk is the most beautiful on the Cote d’Azur in France. Which is quite a surprise given its proximity to one of the best known tourist resorts in the world.The walk itself starts at the end of Gigaro plage near Ramatuelle, which is about 10 minutes drive from La Croix Valmer. From there the walk follows the coastal path for around 6 kilometres until you get to Cap Taillat. From there you return with the option to follow a slight deviation further inland for some of the way. You can carry on...
