Château de la Croix des Gardes

Dreaming About

The French Riviera

An Idyllic Setting

Welcome to the French Riviera

The Story

Paradise on Earth

A place so renowned that it needs no presentation. Known by everyone as the epitome of glamour with its unforgettable parties, sublime settings, extraordinary characters, and landscapes that seem straight out of a postcard, la Côte d’Azur is truly paradise on earth. Discover the Château de la Croix des Gardes, the Château on the French Riviera.

During the 19th century, this location was put on the map with the arrival of wealthy British, Russian and French visitors who came to “winter” on the Riviera. These visits became a habit and gradually the towns and fishing villages in the area adapted to the new inhabitants. Soon, towns such as Cannes, Nice, Menton, and Monaco were home to magnificent villas, flamboyant casinos, and splendid botanical gardens – and the “lifestyle” that it is the French Riviera.

The Story
The Neighborhood

The rise of the Croix-des-Gardes Hill

Only 10 minutes’ drive from the Boulevard de la Croisette, where the early morning sounds of the Port gently fade into the click of cameras, and Spring’s soft light turns swiftly into the evening glitter of the silver screen.
The Château is located above the historic ‘Quartier Anglais’, to the east of the city, established in the early 19th century by the likes of Lord Henry Brougham, General John Taylor, and the Rothschilds.

On the peak of the Croix-des-Gardes Hill, where ancient look-outs once guarded the port below, is a private 25-acre estate. At its heart, an impressive neo-classical castle, built in a Florentine style in 1911, originally renovated in 1917, and most recently in 2020 to reclaim its former position and prestige as one of the most covetable addresses in the area.
