Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Perched on the heights of Vallauris, this house looks out over pine-covered hills from a terrace wrapped around a heated pool – the kind of spot where afternoons dissolve without much effort. Shaded seating beside the water, a pétanque court, and table tennis keep things unhurried, while an on-call concierge can arrange boat hire, a private beach, an in-home chef, or a restaurant table whenever you're ready to venture out. Down the hill, the pottery lanes and sunlit squares of the hill town are an easy reach, with the yacht harbour's marina adding a touch of glamour nearby.
