Tourrettes sur Loup is a charming medieval village, with cobbled streets and a talented artisan community.There are art galleries and gift shops, bakeries, grocers and local produce and markets too. There are numerous restaurants to choose from, some specializing in haut cuisine and others favouring the well known 'plat du Jour' and traditional french cooking.Enjoy your cup of coffee or sun downer around the town square and watch the locals play 'boules'. Spectacular panoramic views can be see from the village, of the sea, mountains and the far Esterel. And maybe on a very clear day, you might get a glimpse of Corsica.
