The village, Le Rouret, is set in beautiful and quiet surroundings in the hinterland of the coast, between Vence and Grasse. Le Rouret is only 20 km from the big cities Nice and Cannes, and some of the coast’s best golf and tennis courses are only a few kilometres away. Le Rouret is, therefore, a most pleasant place to spend a holiday.
