Read what Frommer's guide has to say about Mougins...
'...on the crest of a hill [Mougins] provides an alternative for those who want to be near the excitement of Cannes but not in the midst of it. Picasso and other artists appreciated these rugged, sun-drenched hills covered with gnarled olive trees...followed by Jean Cocteau, Paul Eluard, and Man Ray... Fernand Léger, René Clair, Isadora Duncan, and Christian Dior have lived at Mougins. Mougins is the perfect haven for those who feel that the Riviera is overrun, spoiled, and overbuilt.'

                            My husband and I and our 5-month-old baby could not have enjoyed our stay more in Rick and Pam's "Bergerie" in Mougins. It was so beautiful I felt like we were staying in a picture postcard of the French Riviera -- soaring vistas, a turquoise swimming pool, a citrus tree outside the door, and friendly hosts who served us local pastries and delicious espresso every morning on a shady terrace. The guesthouse feels like a spacious one-room house, with high ceilings, a beautiful (new!) bathroom, and tasteful decorations. The wi-fi was excellent in the little house and we even had our own private terrace outside for meals and relaxing next to a goldfish pool. It all was perfectly clean and Mougins is only a few minutes drive away to pick up amenities and food, Cannes and Antibes about 20 mins away. But the best part of our stay was the morning conversations we had with with Rick and Pam. They are charming, kind people, who have been all over the world and yet remain humble of spirit. I can't say enough nice things about our stay in their gorgeous guesthouse!

                            My husband and I just finished a 9 night stay at the Bergerie and we couldn't have been happier. Rick and Pam were delightful hosts who made us feel very welcome. The bergerie is decorated very tastefully and they have stocked it with every item you could possibly need during your stay. The grounds are absolutely stunning...even better than the pictures! Breakfast every morning was delicious and the view from the terrace was incredible. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay and will most definitely be back!!!!! 5 stars for sure!

                            You have found the winning formula with the charming Bergerie. Your attention to detail with the mix of Provencale style and modern amenities made our stay very special. We feel as if we have shared a home. Mougins is a jewel to be treasured and enjoyed as often as possible, and so is the Bergerie. Thank you, Rick and Pam, for a truly wonderful holiday.

                            A Beautiful Little Pied-de-Terre We were here for two weeks in August. It is a beautiful house and a super nice family (Misha, Stephane, Lino and their dog). The house and pool are beautiful and the surrounding area is a dream. Each morning Misha served us typical French breakfast on our terrace, and we had a great view included. There are fresh towels for the pool, and in the bathroom. All in all it was a great holiday. From their location we could easily reach te towns of Mougins (Nice, Cannes, Antibes, Monaco / Monte Carlo, etc). We can recommend this place to anyone. Wonderful. Best wishes to Misha, Stephane, Lino and Vanille. Thank you for everything.

                            We had the pleasure of being the first visitors to this new VRBO listing. The photos do not due justice to the setting. This is a large property just to the west of Mougins which you see across the valley and over an ancient stand of olive trees. Stephane and Misha and little Lino are delightful. We loved our visits with them over breakfast and a fabulous dinner prepared by Misha and Stephane, the freshest and most honest meal of our trip. The wine selection was superb. Our lovely stone building decorated in Provencal style with its own courtyard was a relief after our small rooms elsewhere in France. We were relaxed and happy there and look forward to returning.

                            My wife and I went looking for a dose of much-needed sun and relaxation and we found that and much more: gracious, charming host and hostess, beautiful gardens to soak in the sun, very cute and comfortable accommodations, and the much-loved Cote d'Azur right at hand! We were also very happy to enjoy a dinner cooked by our host and hostess. Wonderful food, amazingly fresh and with satisfying, creative flavors which really came together nicely. My wife and I thought it was a great dinner and equally great company; Being able to chat about the area, and France in general, in such a relaxed and informal style was a real treat. The property is very attractive, the cottage (a remodeled bergerie, with a spacious living room/kitchen and separate bed/bath areas) immaculate and very easy to live in, and the pool a very nice way to spend an afternoon. Mougins is a picturesque town with some nice attractions (tasty ones too!) It's a very easy, almost straight-shot from Mougins to downtown Cannes, and all the other wonderful destinations around the area are close by. This is certainly a property I can recommend heartily...We're planning on going back a.s.a.p.! M & A

                            Wir waren zwei Wochen im August hier und haben ein wunderschönes Häuschen und eine super nette Familie (Misha, Stephane, Lino und den Hund) vorgefunden. Das Häuschen und der Pool sind wunderschön und die Umgebung ist ein Traum. Wir haben jeden Morgen von Misha auf der Terrasse ein typisch französisches Frühstück bekommen mit einem tollen Ausblick inklusive. Für den Pool gibt es frische Handtücher, genauso wie im Badezimmer. Es war rundum ein toller Urlaub und man kann von Mougins alle Orte (Nizza, Cannes, Antibes, Monaco/MonteCarlo u.s.w.) erreichen. Wir können dieses Haus nur jedem empfehlen. Wunderbar. Liebe Grüße an Misha, Stephane, Lino und Vanny. Danke für Alles.
