Mougins


Mougins
Mougins lies in the hinterland of the coast between Cannes and Grasse on a cone-shaped cliffside. This fantastic medieval mountain village is set in beautiful countryside and surrounded by pine and olive trees and cypresses, an ideal place for a holiday. There is no doubt that Mougins, squeezed in behind the remains of the 15th century walls and a fortified Saracen gate, is one of the really big pearls of the hinterland. From Mougins there are magnificent panoramic views over the bay of Cannes, the islands of Lérins and the Pre-Alps.
