Beat the winter blues with a half-term holiday in Cannes for just £247.96 for a five-night break for a family of four, at the newly-renovated Mimozas Resort in Cannes-Mandelieu.

There's plenty for the whole family to see and do, with the many delights of the Cote d'Azur, such as Grasse, Antibes, Nice, and Mougins, within easy reach and the charming principality of Monaco only an hour away.

Cannes is just a 10-minute drive from the resort, with its famous Croisette seafront boulevard dotted with the stars handprints.  From there you can enjoy a short ferry trip to the island of Sainte Marguerite - home to a 17th century fort, a bird reserve and beautiful scenery.

Closer at hand, the picturesque village of La Napoule is a short stroll away, with its stunning marina and charming castle.  You'll find plenty of restaurants along the shore, boasting incredible views and the finest Provencal cuisine.

For a more active break, you can hire a bike and explore the local area, or golf on the Old Course which was founded by Grand Duke Michael of Russia in 1891, and was the first golf course under Mediterranean skies.

You'll also find a kids' playground, tennis court, football pitch, swimming pool, sauna, hot tub and spa, all on site.

Mimozas Resort offers a range of self-catering apartments, all with their own private balcony overlooking either the lake or golf course, with separate sitting rooms and plenty home comforts.

Fly direct to Nice airport from London with a choice of airlines including easyjet and British Airways, or travel by train with Eurostar.
