The clay is swept and still when you arrive, the lines a pale terracotta against the deeper red, and the sea sits just beyond the fence in that particular Riviera blue that seems lit from below. You hit early, while the courts hold the cool of the night and the cicadas have not yet started. By the time the sun reaches over the pines, you are unhurried, towel over your shoulder, the morning already feeling long in the best way. This is the Côte d’Azur at its most generous: tennis as the first pleasure of the day, then the rest of the day to spend however slowly you like.

How we shape it

We build this week around mornings on court and afternoons at rest, and we hold that line firmly. Your coaching is private and read to your level, whether you want to sharpen a serve, find more patience in the rally, or simply move well and enjoy the contact. Sessions run sixty to ninety minutes on clay, scheduled before the heat, with doubles woven in when you want company on the court.

After that, the week opens out. We pair you with a quiet seaside base and reserve spa hours, sea swims and long lunches so the indulgent half of the day is as considered as the tennis. For couples this works especially well: one of you can play while the other reads by the water, then both meet for lunch. It suits anyone who wants their racket in hand each morning without surrendering the holiday. We keep the pace gentle and the pleasures specific, and we leave room for the days you decide to do almost nothing at all.

Day by day

A rhythm to the days

  1. 01

    Arrival on the coast

    You settle into your seaside base and find your bearings. The first evening is yours, with a quiet dinner as the light fades over the water.

  2. 02

    First clay, first rhythm

    A relaxed morning hit lets your coach read your game. The rest of the day belongs to the pool, the terrace and a long lunch.

  3. 03

    Coaching and the sea

    A focused lesson on footwork and rally tolerance gives way to an afternoon of swimming and salt air along the shore.

  4. 04

    A day to drift

    You trade the court for the spa, with massage, thermal waters and time to read. Tennis returns only if you want it to.

  5. 05

    Doubles and a village table

    A gentle doubles morning, then a slow drive inland to a hillside village for lunch beneath the olive trees.
