**IMPORTANT POINTS TO NOTE!
1. Haut de Cagnes is the medieval village of Cagnes sur Mer. It is a charming, perched village on a hill with a Castle on top. We are very lucky that we can walk to restaurants, markets, shops. We have a free, shuttle bus that runs from town to village every 15 minutes and takes 5 minutes. There is a good bus and train service from the town to most places on the Cote d'Azur. That said - if you have walking disabilities or health issues - the medieval village may not be the best choice for you.
2. Haut de Cagnes is one of the few medieval villages that allows cars to drive through it, however cars cannot access all streets and roads are naturally narrow. We do have some free street parking and a paying car parks in the village and in the town below but the summer is a busy time here so some patience is required. YOU DO NOT NEED A CAR HERE as we are within walking distance to so many things and there is a good public transport service. If you choose to bring a car - please note that parking and driving can be stressful on the Cote d'Azur in general over the summer months. You may want to consider renting a car for only part of your journey once you have settled into the village. If you choose to bring a car, I will provide you with maps and parking details.
Please note:
- There is a cleaning fee of 220 euros to pay in cash on arrival and a linen fee of 20 euros per person for those who do not wish to bring their own linens.
