If you stay near the beach not in the middle of the main season you'll probably want to buy an inflatable airbed in England before you go.

Have you considered enjoying the south of France? You might try Antibes on an exclusive quiet Cap, but within easy reach of the special events and, most importantly within only 400 metres of beaches on two sides.

Here's a file about the Parthenon Frieze Elgin Marbles.

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of St Tropez, Monaco - MonteCarlo, Nice, Cannes and Juan les Pins, but still want to be near enough to enjoy their facilities, you might fall in love with this place here in Antibes. The Cap d'Antibes is quiet - a place of exclusive Hotels - (Eden Roc, for instance,) but it's within easy reach of the special events of the French Riviera and all the facilities of the Côte D'Azur.

It is also within only 400 metres of beaches to both East and West. Many holiday accommodation advertisements say "within 5 minutes of the beach" but in reality that's driving time rather than walking time - this really is walking time to the beach here. It is very conveniently situated.
