Hotel de Mougins is a boutique hotel just outside French Riviera town Mougins. Occupying a former farmhouse, this pretty place to stay is surrounded by fragrant gardens and has gorgeous, cosy modern décor. Superlative service is all part of the package, along with a quiet and intimate setting - but if you want to explore the Riviera's livelier side, it's a short drive to the glitz of Cannes and there're plenty of golfing in the area.

Facilities are plentiful here, as you'd expect from a luxury Riviera retreat. There's a sparkling outdoor pool, guest-only tennis courts and lush Provencal gardens filled with lavender, lemon and olive trees to wander around. Dine on trendy local cuisine outdoors at Le Jardin restaurant, which also has a cosy indoor lounge and bar.

Each of Hotel de Mougins' 51 rooms and suites have opulent white-and-cream country-house styling, as well as their own private terrace or garden. All come complete with LCD TVs, Wi-Fi and minibars.
