47 Avenue de Lérins, Théoule-sur-Mer

It’s nicely situated by the sea with a view over the Cannes bay and the beginning of the Estrelles massif. There is a terrace along three sides but also a nice interior with a good atmosphere.

I like – the situation on the beach

Mimosa walk in Tanneron

Route de Tanneron, Mandelieu-La Napoule

In February, the mimosa blooms in the Tanneron massif. It’s very nice to make an easy hike on the Grand Duc path. It takes  about 45 min. from Nice by car, taking the A8 to Mandelieu center and then D92 towards Tanneron.

You are surrounded by mimosa trees and the lovely scent from the flowers. At some spots you have a marvelous view over the Cannes Bay.

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).

Ambiance and service – nice 
Quality and maintenance – very nice
Price/quality -nice
Nice to play – nice

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