The ancient village of Eze, with its stunning views over St Jean-Cap Ferrat, is where the real appeal of the Côte d’Azur lies. Perched on a rocky peak at an altitude of 427m overlooking the Mediterranean sea, the village is centred around the ruins of a 12th century castle.

Bono has a pad here and it’s not hard to understand why when you first set eyes on the view over the sparkling Mediterranean. Wander up the narrow medieval streets which circle the base of the castle right up to the well sign-posted Jardin Exotique Panorama at the top. When you finally arrive at the top you’ll find the Jardin and you’ll be bowled over by the panoramic view as well as the Mediterranean cacti, citrus trees and tropical plants from Africa and America.

Accommodation in Eze

The Chateau de la Chèvre d’Or hotel is situated within the stone walls at the top of the village and is one of the world’s finest hotels. Its terraces overlook the ocean and there are many hidden courtyards, sun decks and Moroccan style gardens. The rooms boast jacuzzis and large terraces with sweeping views of the Mediterranean. From 140 euros per person (room only).

For a less expensive option, try Hotel Hermitage Eze. This small, three-star hotel provides an excellent base from which to explore the coastline or go hiking or mountain biking in the hills. Tucked away in a corner off the Corniche, just over a mile from the main village, it has recently been renovated and has a swimming pool and cocktail bar with views over the coast. Each ensuite room is tastefully decorated in simple, Provençal style and has satellite television and internet. Fresh Mediterranean food, and the hotel will also prepare picnic baskets. From 65 euros per person night (half–board).

If you want to camp, Camping Les Romarins must have one of the world’s finest views. Perched high up in the hills, you’ll be unzipping your tent and watching sunrays skid across the Med. Featured in the Europe edition of Cool Camping, it was described as the campsite with the best sea view in France.
