Theoule-sur-Mer is still a small village, with beaches,
leisure port, post office, mairie, pharmacie, boulangerie,
local shops, and a food market once a week.

Apartment ‘Rose’, in La Toquade, is in the village, so
you can go everywhere on foot, without the bother of
hiring a car or trying to find parking at the beach.

Not to mention being able to walk home in the evening
having dined out or enjoyed an apero at one of
Théoule’s many bars or restaurants.

EASE OF ACCESS

You are close to the bus stop, hourly direct to Cannes,
and a short walk to the train station for trips to Nice,
Monaco, or Ventimiglia (try it for the Friday Market).

You can get to and from Nice airport by bus or train,
within a couple of hours, without the need to hire a car.

BEATUIFUL PANORAMIC VIEWS

La Toquade is a luxurious gated residence, set in its own
landscaped and impeccably maintained gardens.
A big attraction is the huge expanse of terrasse at the pool,
complete with sunbeds and parasols, and magnificent
panoramic views of the Bay of Cannes and the Iles de Lerins.

CLEAR AZURE SEA

And what sea! What a magnificent expanse of blue, especially
when viewed against the backdrop of the red rocks of the
Esterel plateau. Very clear, clean waters, perfect for swimming
and snorkelling. Where the forest sweeps right down to the sea
and where you can get sun on the L’Aigulle beach up to 9pm
in the evening.

WALK in the ESTEREL

The apartment’s own dining terasse enjoys a peaceful view of the garden, forest and hillside. You really are right in the fabled Esterel, surrounded by nature. A short walk away, you may access the hiking and biking trails of the Esterel.

When it comes to getting a place in France, everyone has different criteria. In the words of the Spice girls, you have to ask yourself “What do you really, really want?”

I had long been in love with the Cote d’Azur and spent many happy holidays there, from Villefranche and Beaulieu sur Mer, near the border with Monte Carlo, to Frejus and St Tropez on the opposite end.

You name it, Antibes, Juan les Pins, Golfe Juan, St. Raphael, Antheor, Nice, Cannes, and even the countryside in Provence, I’ve stayed there and enjoyed them all. But my favourite place of all, was Theoule-sur-Mer.

BEST of BOTH WORLDS

The area known as the Riviera (the Cote D’Azur) spans two départments.

The Alpes Maritimes is the area around Nice and Cannes, which has, in my opinion, been overdeveloped with too many high rise apartments, but has the advantage of being very convenient to Nice airport.

The Var, by contrast is much greener, much more of a nature-lover’s paradise, but can be a bit more difficult to access except by car.

Théoule-sur-Mer is in on the border between these two departements. You have the best of both worlds, close to the buzz and glamour of Cannes and Nice airport, and yet with easy access to the mountains and the forests, and of course the sea.
