The Cannes hinterland, a true haven of peace with undeniable charm

The Cannes hinterland is a prime destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. It is characterized by its green hills, picturesque hiking trails, and above all, its villages perched on the heights. Among the most beautiful in the region are Valbonne, a peaceful and welcoming village where art de vivre and conviviality reign supreme; Grasse, exuding a genuine sense of authenticity; and Opio, Châteauneuf-Grasse, and Roquefort-les-Pins, all known for their unique charm.

The hinterland is popular with country lovers who want to get away from it all and escape the hustle and bustle of the city—a real escape from hectic urban life—while still remaining close by. Its inhabitants, like its visitors, love living in the heart of nature, especially to discover the hidden treasures of these typical villages.

Located just a few minutes from coastal towns, it offers easy access to the nearest beaches, such as Antibes, Cannes, and Mandelieu, the mountains and ski resorts (Auron, Isola 2000, Valberg), as well as the region's restaurants and tourist attractions.

Recently, “space” and “open areas” have become the preferred criteria for French people, but also for foreigners who have realized their value. Thus, having gardens in the heart of large green spaces has become a real necessity. Stone village houses, villas with swimming pools on sumptuous grounds, and atypical Provençal farmhouses: properties with undeniable charm, characteristic of this exclusive area.

In short, living in the Cannes hinterland offers many advantages, such as a life closer to nature, more peaceful but also more “affordable,” while enjoying the proximity of the major coastal cities of the French Riviera and their amenities.

Thanks to its reputation and decades of presence on the French Riviera, Magrey & Sons has a substantial address book and property portfolio, from Mougins to Châteauneuf-Grasse, including Valbonne, Opio, Grasse, and Mouans-Sartoux.
