Local Info
Cote D'Azur
Overview
St
Jeannet
The local village is
a 5-10 minute stroll from the Villa. It is a very simple, low-key place off the
beaten track of the tour groups. You will find a few places to
eat, butcher, fruit and vegetable stores and of course several
boulangeries serving hot bread and patisseries.
You can hike into the Baous from the trails passing by the Villa.
There is a great local vineyard a 5 minute drive away where you will find delightful wines
imbued with the local sunshine and minerals.
