With its elegant harbours framed with luxurious and state-of-the-art yachts, affluent coastal towns with a world-class casino, restaurant or nightclub on every corner, the playfully diverse lands of the Cote d\u2019Azur have long attracted the world\u2019s most glamorous, wealthy and elite to its shores.<\/p>\n

It comes as little surprise therefore when news emerges that George Clooney is looking at buying a love nest on the French Riviera. According to reports, the Hollywood actor, who is engaged to British lawyer Amal Alamuddin, has been in contact with estate agents in the South of France. Although as you might imagine, not any old Cote d\u2019Azur property will do for the glamorous, high-profile couple.<\/p>\n

George Clooney is reported to be specifically after a \u201chouse on the beach\u201d. It has also been suggested a possibility has been located \u201cjust outside St. Tropez.\u201d<\/p>\n

Escaping the British weather<\/b><\/p>\n

Asides being globally-renowned as the most glamorous and star-studded spots on the Mediterranean, the French Riviera boasts a beautiful climate of year-round sunshine and warmth. The 53 year old actor recently purchased a home in London and it is believed his St. Tropez pad will enable him to escape the less than desirable British weather.<\/p>\n

\u201cI guess he hopes the London gloom will be relieved by escapes to the Cote d\u2019Azur,\u201d a source told the New York Post.<\/p>\n

An ideal romantic getaway<\/b><\/p>\n

This sun-drenched stretch of the south of France provides the perfect romantic getaway for couples. In fact the refreshing combination of glamour and glitz and timeless, quintessential French culture, means the Cote d\u2019Azur is one of Europe\u2019s most popular honeymoon destinations.<\/p>\n

Why confine the fun, excitement and luxury of spending time on the French Riviera to a honeymoon if you\u2019re George Clooney? You may as well buy a house there and jet across whenever the London sky looks a little on the gloomy side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
