Fayence, a pretty market town, Callian, built around a chateau on a hilltop, and Montaroux, built around a former fortress, are 10-15 mins drive from Seillans.

There are excellent restaurants in the locality and many auberges; Hotel Restaurant Deux Rocs in heart of historic Seillans and Le France in Fayance are two outstanding restaurants.
