The historic village of Haut de Cagnes is a charming little world of its own. It sits on a hilltop, between Nice and Antibes, and is only a 15 minutes walk from the beach. Nice airport is 15 minutes by car, Nice and Cannes about 20 minutes. Buses take you to Nice, Antibes, Cannes, Grasse, St Paul and Vence. The train goes along the coast to Italy. The village itself boasts around 15 restaurants. At the foot of the hill, in the modern town of Cagnes-sur-Mer, there is a wonderful covered Provencal food market, surrounded by stalls with vegetables, fruits and flowers. Little shops offer local specialities. There are a couple of supermarkets in the town centre, and many more in the immediate region.
