Cote d'Azur - The Place to Be - By: Gareth Hoyle1

The French Riviera

Due to the fact it's on the Mediterranean coast the climate is beautiful for most of the year. The Cote d'Azur was actually one of the first places labelled as a resort area - offering a place for the wealthy upper class from Britain to visit near the end of the 18th Century. As the railway came along in the middle of the 19th Century, so did people from Britain, Russia and so on who were looking to have a relaxing holiday or play some sports.

Nice

The largest city in the Cote d'Azur is Nice - home to the Nice Cote d'Azur Airport. Nice has a population of over 347,000 and includes many of the 163 nationalities that are present in the Cote d'Azur.

Seaside

If you're interested in moving to this incredible region, or if holiday accommodation is all you're looking for - then you will be met by plenty of beautiful seaside resorts. From the seaside resorts of Antibes, Frejus, Saint-Tropez and Cannes, you'll be spoilt for choice!

Choose the right Accommodation

How long are you planning on staying? Have you decided where best to stay to visit all of the attractions you want to see? These are just some of the questions you need to answer if you're interested in taking a break from the fast pace of everyday life.
