Bagnols en Foret is a typical Provencal hilltop village situated at equal distances between the hinterland town of Fayence and the coast at Frejus-St Raphael. The village is perched in the hills with breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside, most of which is oak forests, broom and wild thyme fields. The long sandy beaches of Frejus and its water sports are just 18 km away. The breathtaking Lac St.Cassien is only 15 minutes away. Cannes 30 mins, Nice and St Tropez 50 mins. You could pop to Italy for lunch or go to the Southern Alps for the day. There is plenty to keep you busy (that is only if you can tear yourself away from the tranquility of the Bergerie!) Walking in the hills, sailing, fishing, wineries, gastronomy, paragliding, cycling, golf, shopping, the Glamour of the Riviera... Something for everyone. With easy access to Cannes and St.Tropez by the A8 motorway, Bagnols en Foret is the perfect base for visiting the Riviera and the Var countryside.

Guest comments
'I can hardly believe that our stay at La Bergerie is over. We LOVED the house! You have outfitted it with every imaginable thing that we could have needed. It was perfectly furnished and the extra toys were super. Thank you! Our 5 year old kept referring to 'Amy's house & toys'... He is a BIG princess fan and enjoyed borrowing Amy's princess plate for meals!' April from Seattle 04/2006.
'The house managers were excellent - we kept them waiting when we arrived as it took 2 hours to pick up the car from Europcar for some reason, and they were happy to turn up at 7am when we left. The house was a perfect layout for us with 2 families staying - we were able to have separate areas upstairs so we never felt on top of each other or having fights for the bathroom. The pool was excellent - having a shower/toilet, fridge by the pool was great and saved having to go back to the house frequently'
Andy 07/2006.
Bedrooms and bathrooms were super allowing privacy for us and parents-in-law.HW
