South of France Part 2

Having just about recovered, it was time to scoot back to the South of France. 🇫🇷

We had 5 very chilled nights on the hill tops of Villefranche with Janika & creepy Simon to start which was just fab. It was one of Dan’s fav spots when he was on boats so he wanted to show me round. Super cute town with gorgeous water and pebble beaches.

We day tripped to Monaco for a squiz around the port which was a real experience! Wow what a crazy place! Lamborghinis, Bentleys & porches lined the streets and all we could afford was a bottle of water from the vending machine! 🤑

We had a very crazy random bump in with Bella & Flossy in Villefranche which was a lovely surprise, so of course rosé & pizza was on the cards. 😋

Next stop, Nice to meet Jacko & Pip (& wee baby Gazza the bump!) for a week of adventuring. Nice was just as it sounds…nice. Cool to wander around for a day, but that was plenty. Super exited to be reunified, we hopped on the train to Cannes.

A gorgeous wee apartment up on the hill awaited us and we had 4 nights exploring the bustling city. Beach clubs, delish dinners, a cracking boat day, fireworks and many new friends later, it was thank you Shazzzzaaaa and Gazzzzaaa, we out!

Quick few tips for Cannes:
- Rue Saint Antoine for dinner, our fav was Da Bouttau / Auberge Provencale
- Mademoiselle Beach Club
- Tredici for pizza
- Copenhagen Coffee Lab for coffee/brunch
- La Guérite (by boat)
- Le Benitier for dinner on the beach

Our last few nights were in the gorgeous Provence. We made a cheeky stop at the Whispering Angel winery and left with a magnum (because why not) and made our way for Huuuugue and Lily, the home stay that we thought was a hotel! Not what we expected, but a great spot and lots of giggles all the same with lots of Rummy Cub and amazing dinners out.

Provence must do’s:
- Eat at Auberge du Vieux Village
- Eat at La Bastide du Grand Tilleul
- Visit the towns of Gordes & Loumarin
- Check out the lavender fields around GordesRead more
