This hill is the old city of Cagnes.
It’s dominated by the Medieval castle and it’s classified as a “Historical site”. Only 650 inhabitants live there.
It’s very calm and one of the most beautiful villages on the Riviera.

This part of Cagnes is also called “the fishermen’s village”.
More than 200 years ago, some fishermen from Genoa in Italy came for fishing.
Some of them fell in love with the site and decided to settle there with their families.

La Grande Bastide
761 Chem. des Picholines, Châteauneuf-Grasse
40 min. drive from Nice centre, this golf course is beatifully situated at the foot of the village Chateauneuf de Grasse. The course is well keept all year long.
It’s not too physical, you do it in less than 4h. But still fun and diversified. The greens are often higher than the fairway which makes it difficult to roll on and needs a perfect pitch. Very good and clear signs where to go for the next hole. Greenfee 44-85 euros. Ladies day on Mondays.
Ambiance and service – nice but
Quality and maintenance – nice
Price/quality -nice

I like – I’ve done Hole in One at hole 13
St. Donat
270 Route de Cannes, Grasse
Situated between Cannes and Grasse and about 40 min. drive from the centre of Nice. Nice diversified landscape. Holes 11 to 15 are going up and down and are rather challenging. It is well maintained even during tough weather conditions. It’s a busy course so count on close to 4h30 to make the 18 holes. The restaurant has a sunny and nice terrasse with a view over hole 9 and 10 and the lake.
Greenfee 72 euros if booking online (85 euros full price).

I like – the cute little palm tree indicating the 135 metres to the green.
