The exclusive Cap d’Antibes on the French Riviera captures the very essence of the Cote d’Azur. Beaches with fine summer restaurants, a harbour filled with sailing yachts, views that combine a twinkling ocean with the foothills of the Alps, and coastal pathways fringed with fragrant Mediterranean pines.
Perhaps unsurprisingly therefore, the Cap also features some of the region’s finest real estate. Stylish contemporary villas and grand belle époque homes lie behind the tall gates and neatly clipped yew hedges that line the avenues of the peninsula.
The Domaine de la Garoupe is considered the stand-out property on the Cap d’Antibes. A 9-bedroom residence, sleeping up to 18 guests, with spacious rooms divided across a main house and two guest cottages. Located a short walk from La Garoupe beach, the property is an extremely impressive estate in a prime position.
Surrounded with private and beautifully lit, landscaped gardens, pathways of reclaimed stone wind between swathes of Mediterranean planting, including lavender and rosemary, dotted with cypress and ancient olive trees. A large, outdoor swimming pool measures 22m in length and is edged with lawns, alongside a pool house with summer kitchen and shaded outdoor dining terrace.
