Hello,
We'll be living in Nice, France for eight months but will need to find a cooler place for the summer months that is not super expensive. We were thinking of the Alps, since we believe most people gravitate to the coasts in summer, and we like taking rural walks. Can folks recommend places that we might not have considered? Thank you.

My friends have a summer cottage just outside of Grenoble and go there in July and August to escape the heat and tourists in Sète.

Hello,
For a place not too expensive in summer in France, you obviously have Brittany with Saint Malo, Dinard. You can also head to La Rochelle which is very pleasant in summer with a light wind,
