Best time to Visit
Good time to visit
Average time to visit
Provence enjoys a pleasant, Mediterranean climate. On average, Provence gets 300 days of sunshine each year, with warm but mild temperatures. Summer is high season here, with August bringing the hottest weather and the biggest crowds. Spring is a great time of year, the weather is warm, with temperatures swaying between 16 and 20°C, and the crowds are small. If you want to see lavender fields then it would be best to visit the region in June. In October the weather starts to cool. Autumn is also the start of the wettest weeks of the year. October sees an average of 3.7 inches of rain, with an average of three inches following in November. Still, it never gets all that chilly and snow is rare. In January, the mercury rarely dips beneath the -1°C.

Reviews
Anne Bamber (Staff)
A wonderful hotel with a welcoming atmosphere. The rooms are extremely comfortable with traditional provencal touches. With cosy provencal style rooms in le Mas farmhouse, larger rooms and suites in the Bastide building and open plan and modern suites in Villa Candille - this hotel has a room to suit most tastes! Enjoy wonderful views and easy access to the lovely village of Mougins - a cultural gem with many art galleries, shops and a wonderful museum.
Sarah Byrne (Staff)
Le Mas Candille's main restaurant is superb. Expect incredible cuisine at reasonable prices too with tasting menus and wine pairings that are truly exceptional. The staff go out of their way to make you feel at home too. All in all this hotel is a true gem.

To take full advantage of the setting why not enrol in a cookery class with Serge Gouloums, the head chef at 'Le Candille', to learn his many secrets. The course includes a visit to a local food market to select the best seasonal produce.
