The medieval village of Eze is one of the highlights of the Med, ancient stone buildings perched on a hilltop overlooking the stunning Cote d’Azure. This newly renovated villa clings to the same hillside, within walking distance of both the village and the white sandy beaches below. Its crowning glory is the swimming pool: the same clear, bright blue as the sea beyond, surrounded by a lush and fragrant garden and patio for lounging, perhaps with a cocktail. Outside you’ll also find a barbecue, Pétanque court and gym, while inside, the open-plan living quarters and four en-suite bedrooms have a pared-back, minimalist feel.
