Wonderful private house, recently refurbished and decorated, the house is very well equiped and has a welcoming ‘home from home’ feel. There are beautiful views across the valley towards La Garde Freinet, a pretty Provencal village less than 3km away. Extensive terraces both covered and uncovered, for sunbathing, dining and relaxing surround the house on three sides and guests enjoy exclusive use of a secluded 10m x 5m pool. The area is well situated to enjoy water sports on the coast, for celebrity spotting in and around St Tropez, cycling, golf, walking and exploring the surrounding villages and towns. The house is well equipped with books, games and videos and the gardens host an abundance of flora and fauna including palms, fresh figs and mulberries, lizards, eagles and the occasional tortoise!
