Haut de Cagnes is a perched village of the Riviera, the medieval crown of the town Cagnes sur Mer, home of Auguste Renoir during his last 30 years. It is one of the last authentic villages not overrun by tourist shops where people live year round and home to numerous artists and painters who come each year for its beautiful setting and incomparable light. The village, though free of tourist traps is only steps away from conveniences (great covered provencal market as well as daily farmers' market) either by way of walking or a free shuttle. There are 15 restaurants to choose from, one of them with a Guide Michelin star, and a jazz club. The sea can be reached in a 20-30 minutes' walk. By car, it is 10-20 minutes from Nice airport and Antibes. Public transport to nearby St. Paul de Vence, Grasse, Cannes, and Italy is all within walking distance. Haut de Cagnes does provide it all by its central location and dual qualities. Historical - yet with modern accessible amenities.
