Frog's House, St Jeannet - behind Nice
Before we left Australia, I'd seen an auberge called The Frogs' House, in a small hill town behind Nice. Didn't book answer weren't sure where we'd be. Fortunately, they had one room when we called. Corrine is a chef, who does culinary 'experiences', shopping in markets, then a cooking lesson back at the auberge. Benoit is a guide, and takes groups …
Monaco: The best of it all in one little country
... floating in a beautiful, serene place lost to time.
Our dinner at VistaMar in the Hermitage Hotel (One of Monte Carlo/Monaco's top 10 restaurants) was complete with foie gras, sea bass, lamb, chocolate fondant and Grand Marnier Souffle... a perfect ending to an amazing meal. We finished the night in a small club cut into the side of a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean.

Day 16 - The Monte Carlo
... It can be quite disorienting to when your used to paying the person that serve you and ten they ask you in another language to pay elsewhere! It was a very good croissant though! It had a subtle salty taste which was nice :). After strolling through the small streets for a whole we went back to the hotel to book another night and pay for some wifi. We made good use of the wifi too, you tuning comedians and then quickly looking up trains for the ...
We return to the ancestral manse
... cars following a resident get bounced into the air as the cylinder reemerged from the hole in the pavement with a pneumatic hiss. The car’s undercarriage was pinned and the front of the car was held aloft in a humiliating display for all to see. Eventually the police would appear and make the cylinder retreat back into its hole, and sometimes a tow truck had to be called to drag away the car.
Meanwhile, the old men were still playing petanque on ...
Saaiman, Wikus Saaiman, better driver than Bond!
... slices she and Wikus had (Susan was very happy with her order as she got exactly what she wanted).
We then drove through the winding mountain roads of Monaco, searching for the famous James Bond road where he drove high on the cliffs right above the sea in Golden Eye. We had a real fun time with the GPS trying to find the Grande Corniche coming from the direction of Nice. The GPS easily gets confused if there are too many ...

“ Peaceful oasis ”
Reviewed Sep 10, 2012
Had seen this before we left Australia, but wasn't sure it would fit our schedule.
The extended stay with walks & cooking classes would have been great. Amazing views down to the coast.
Only downside is the drive up & down to get to other parts of the riviera.
But you could just stay here & veg out, & enjoy local activities (winery, walks, short trip to st paul de Venice).
Would love to come again for a longer stay.
