Its goal is to provide travelers with comprehensive and up-to-date information to help them plan and fully enjoy their trips.
Between sea and mountains, the Domaine de Barbossi, located in Mandelieu-La-Napoule in the Alpes-Maritimes, stands out for its exceptional natural setting. Spanning 1350 hectares, this private estate is surrounded by forests and protected landscapes, enhanced by the red rocks of the Massif de l’Estérel. The estate also includes a 10-hectare vineyard, a century-old olive grove, an organic vegetable garden, an 18-hole golf course, a luxurious stable, a hotel, a spa, and a restaurant.
The Riviera Golf de Barbossi, located in the heart of this estate, is a unique course enriched with artworks, offering visitors a golfing experience in a setting of greenery and tranquility. It is in this environment that the team led by Isabelle Drezen, Côte d’Azur edition manager, chose to present the new annual Petit Futé 2024-2025 tourist guide.
