The azure waters, fashionable hotels and stunning landscapes of Cote d'Azur make a luxury holiday in the South of France one of the country’s most glamorous options. Also known as the French Riviera, admire views over the sapphire sea from one of the many chic cafes and restaurants dotted ten a penny along this coastline or, get yourself a sun lounger, parasol, designer sunglasses and a waiter to bring the drinks, and watch the beautiful people at play.
The textbook points of interest include Nice, Cannes, and St Tropez, which are all synonymous with glitz and glamour and are popular playgrounds for A-listers. Away from the beaches, explore idyllic villages, pop into one of the traditional French perfumeries or simply enjoy the blissful ambience of the landscapes that inspired Picasso, whose works can be seen in local galleries.
