Notes on accommodation
St Maxime Parc is a development of new provencal houses and apartments. Our particular plot has four houses in a row, and our house is one of those four. The house is bright, airy, with the most magical views of the provencal hills. Both the kitchen and living room open out onto a huge balcony with table, chairs, loungers and bbq. Each of the two bedrooms has its own French doors leading onto a beautiful, quiet, sheltered terrace and garden. The two communal pools and gardens are all maintained by management. There are 2 pools, one for babies, and they are exclusively for the owners in St Maxime Parc. It is our second home, it is a place to unwind, enjoy the views, the smell of pine trees surrounding the house, and only 20 minutes walk to the village, the port, the beaches. However, just outside the parc you will find a boulangerie, a few supermarkets and five minutes away there is an Aqua Park. The location is perfect to explore inland Provence and the coast of Cote d'Azur.
