Villefranche-sur-Mer is one of the most historic and beautiful bays on the French Riviera. Located four miles east of Nice and 6 miles south west of Monaco, Villefranche-Sur-Mer offers the perfect location from which to explore one of the world’s most stunning coastlines. Eze, Beaulieu, Menton, Monaco and Cannes (to name but a few) are all within easy reach by bus or from the town’s railway station. Nice itself, with its wealth of great museums and attractions, is just a 10 min bus ride away.
Villefranche-sur-Mer still has a fully working harbor, La Darse, which is surrounded by lovely local restaurants and cafes. The old town of Villefranche dates from the 13th century and is truly stunning. Narrow streets snake up the hillside from the sea and the waterfront plays host to world class restaurants.
