Relaxing in Roquebrune


Our trip to Roquebrune was exactly what I was hoping for in a trip to Nice. We arrived at the cheerful village, the car park strung with bright bunting. As we started exploring the town we came across a restaurant recommended by one of the guidebooks, Fraise et Chocolate. It was the perfect place to lunch, with a small simple menu of home made food and fresh juice. We sat out on a large terrace balcony overlooking the mountains and a tiny bit of the water. The sun was warm and we took our time eating lunch and then having coffee and cake. We then wandered around the village enjoying its winding streets and colourful houses and pleasant squares. We walked to the 1000 year old Olive tree and enjoying the views of the coast before hitting the road again.
