Gardens:
The views to the old village with the Mediterranean Sea and Esterel mountains in the background are truly stunning.
The pool and garden are beautifully lit at night time.
One of the most delightful features of the garden is a full size boules court on the lower terrace- great afternoon fun!
We have just added a magnificent decked area beneath our fabulous palm tree - the perfect place for relaxing in filtered sunshine. It has a viewing gallery overlooking the boules court for the non players. There is patio heater here for cooler evenings.
On the lower balcony, there is a choice of easy to use gas or conventional barbecues.
By the pool is an outdoor shower and a pool house (equipped with drinks fridge and sheltered seating.)
The pool is alarmed.
The villa is secured by remote controlled electric gates.

Golf:
There are a dozen golf courses within 45 minutes of Mougins and within 5km of the villa there are three excellent courses, two of which can compete with anything in Europe. There are courses to suit all budgets. The closest course to the villa (5 minutes' drive) and one of the best around, is Cannes Mougins, which has hosted European Tour events 14 times with winners including Seve Ballesteros. Green fees are €150 per round (including a buggy) and it is worth every cent! Just the other side of the village is Royal Mougins, which is a very exclusive golf club with a course to match. Fees are €200-€250 (including a buggy), but be sure to book well in advance as the club only allows 20 non-members per day. Only a ten minute drive from the villa, is Saint Donat, on the road between Mouans Sartoux and Grasse. The green fees are only €73 which is fantastic value for money. The course is not long, but intricate and testing; it always seems to be in great condition. Others a little further away but well worth a mention include the famous Four Seasons golf resort of Terre Blanche, which has two championship standard courses; le Riou is the shorter, but tighter; le Château is over 7,000 yards and is a true test for any standard of player. Also Château de Taulane, beyond Grasse into the mountains- a stunning Gary Player designed course (green fees are €100 per round), and then Monte Carlo golf club- set high above the principality of Monaco with the most breathtaking views of the area.
