Client Comments

From our first moments of arrival, greeted first by the strains of jazz from the airing Bergerie and then by the welcoming owner, we felt the tensions of a hot day’s travelling melt away.   The house is beautifully and authentically appointed, with art works and books and a well stocked kitchen creating a sense of a home from home. The bergerie is very private despite sharing the site with the owner's mas, the huge pool is enveloped in the scent of the numerous pines and large eucalyptus on site.   The location is simply superb for those wishing to immerse themselves in the countryside, whilst also offering easy proximity to vineyards, a world class racetrack and the calanques of the wonderful coast. Cassis, Bandol, Marseilles and Toulon are within easy striking distance.  H and R are the most genial of hosts, welcoming and replete with with local information whilst at the same time being absolutely respectful of our privacy.  They could not have been more helpful or thoughtful, and we left feeling that we had made some very like minded and lovely friends.  Mrs D, South France Villas client
This property is an oasis, away from everything in the heart of woodland, yet only ten minutes drive from the local Town.Family M, South France Villas client September 2022
