Auberge Quintessence

€€€
At the Col de la Couillole, a pass in the Mercantour National Park, this former refuge run by Pauline and Christophe Billau is a top destination for foodies. These two serve up a warm welcome and a single set menu that draws inspiration from the mountains and changes with the seasons. Diners can indulge in creamy local mountain nettle cappuccino, superb roasted white asparagus, whether tangy with candied citrus fruit or in a sabayon sauce, or lightly smoked Mediterranean tuna served confit-style and subtly counterbalanced by the herbal notes of oxalis.

A quintessential French country inn in the heart of the Mercantour National Park.

Le Saint-Martin

The stylish, low-key Saint Martin Hotel, whose rooms command sweeping views over the hillsides of Vence and the Mediterranean, is most definitely a treat for the eye. In the plush dining room or on the breathtaking terrace, you will sample intelligently devised dishes underscored by high-flying craftsmanship and a sprinkling of inspired associations.
