Cote Azur villa holidaymakers have a host of fantastic activities to choose from and one of the more unusual and extreme options is parascending.The Cote d’Azur in the south of France is blessed with an unusual combination of a warm sea, the Mediterranean and huge mountains, the Alps, in very close proximity. This creates unusually good parascending conditions and as a consequence this surprisingly accessible extreme sport is well represented in the area.One of the most famous parascending sites in the world is found at Roquebrune Cap Matin which...

Each summer there the many free concerts and performances in Cote d'Azur in France. The only thing is to work out what that is worth to go to.It is a well-known fact that the Alps Maritime is one of the richest regions in France, but not many people are aware of that one of the consequences of this wealth is a very well financed tourism infrastructure, which is available for all.An excellent example of the government or "Conseil General" as its known in France using this resource to good effect are the free shows running during the summer...

In the summer when the weather is warm the south of France offers a wide range of well-marked and documented walks for all standards rambler. In contrast to the United Kingdom, one thing that you can more or less bank on is weather, especially if the area of your choice is the French Riviera.The Worldwide UK Office is based in Grassington in the Dales National Park. It is a beautiful village and a paradise for walking, mountain bike riding, fell-and mountain climbing and in spite of my advancing years I like to take part in all of the latter as often as...

South of France accommodation and skiing seems an unlikely combination, but having spent a delightful day skiing in Greoliere les Neige, I am now sat on my balcony in a T-Shirt in the sun, with a view over the Mediterranean, reflecting on what a fabulous way to holiday that is at this time of the year.Skiing conditions this year are as good as they have been the last for 20 years in the Alps in general, but especially in the southern French Alps. Few are aware of the close proximity of a number excellent ski resorts to the coastline Mediterranean....

Villas in the Cote d'Azur were the destination of choice for two of the 2009 X Factor judges, Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue. The X Factor continues to wow British audiences and given the recent worldwide success with the previous X Factor winner Leona Lewis, it is easy to see why.The program’s unique ability to find real talent, catapulting people like Leona from relative obscurity to huge wealth and success has many of us transfixed.An important part of the process is the stage where judges chose the three best from his or her nominated group...

Is Saint Tropez losing its stars? It was reported last week that there is a clear a lack of stars in Saint Tropez this summer. The beautiful resort of Saint Tropez, which shot to fame in the sixties in part because of the popularity of French icon Brigitte Bardot is usually full of big name stars. But not so far this year. Denzil Washington arrived recently, but there is a distinct feeling that he is a rare gem: this is a most exceptional occurrence; so much that mainstream French TV News carried a feature bemoaning this strange state of affairs.The...
