What's Nearby
Less than one hour by road, all the charm of Aix-en-Provence and the old ports of Marseilles and Saint Tropez are within easy reach. The medieval villages of La Cadiere d’Azur and Le Castellet, perched high on the cascading hillside, or the quaint harbors of Cassis, Bandol and Sanary-sur-Mer are also nearby. The islands of Porquerolles and Port-Cros, with protected natural sanctuaries of wildlife and magnificent beaches, can be discovered by boat. A visit to the chateaux and AOC-guaranteed vineyards in the area, offering wine tasting and introductions to winemaking for groups, are certain to appeal to food and wine lovers.
