How to get there

Make the journey as memorable as the arrival. Your dedicated concierge can arrange transportation from the closest airport or train station to your South of France holiday rental home.

By plane

You're spoilt for choice with airports in the South of France, flying to Lyon, Bordeaux, Toulouse, or Nice with ease by chartered plane or private jet. Your concierge will arrange a VIP transfer or car rental to ensure that, once you land, you'll be unwinding in your luxury villa in no time.

By train

Hop on the Eurostar to Paris or Lille and then snake your way down the country to the South of France using a connecting service. The country's fast and efficient train service is a relaxing way to explore the French Riveria and the hinterland, allowing you to see as much of the country as possible during your stay.

By car

Using the ferry or Le Shuttle to cross the Channel, once in France, you'll encounter captivating landscapes and architecture as you drive South. Cruise along the autoroutes or take a more scenic route, winding your way through miles of vineyards and timeless Medieval hamlets to reach your destination.

Local Tips

  • Brush up on the French driving rules as on-the-spot fines of up to €750 can be given for traffic violations.
  • Pay attention to where the locals eat if you want to savour the best flavours and finest renditions of the classics.
