You can shop three times a week at the farmers market or venture to nearby beach resort towns such as Cannes, Fréjus and St. Raphaèl within 35 km. Access to Nice airport in just 45 minutes. Or try a short excursion to St. Tropez (1 hour). Fayence is also just an hour’s drive from the impressive Gorges du Verdon – the European Grand Canyon – and lake St.Croix.
