It is a detached 3 bedroomed property built in provencal style, all on 1 level, with beautiful internal wooden beams and fireplace, and recently painted interiors.

The villa has been in our family for over 30 years and is primarily our home- so all the extra little items are there for your use.

We have several grandchildren of varying ages and the villa is suitable for children (we do have a number of toys, games, books and beach items for their use).

One of our family also has a lovely dog which comes on holiday too. So we do accept dogs to the villa but for a small extra charge. Obviously, we expect the dogs not to be left in the villa or in the garden on their own, and would ask that owners respect a dog free bedroom area please.

The gardens are on 4 sides of the property, with many Mediterranean flowers, shrubs and cacti. The gardens are lit at night and the decking area has beautiful views towards the sea and islands.

We do not have an irrigation scheme so ask our guests to water the pots if the weather is dry.

We introduced a hot tub in past few years and has proved very sucessful. We have decided to include the use of the hot tub in the rental price. Please note though the hot tub is only for use between April and November.
The hot tub is situated to the side of the property and has proved a great success with our recent Rentors, the area has lovely views, part astroturf and a yoga mat is available.

The area is lit and plastic glasses and extra towels are available for use with the hot tub. It is very easy to use and all the instructions and chemicals are there for your use. The water is changed before each rental.





Cavalaire as a holiday resort:

Cavalaire is unique in that it retains its French family resort. It is a village in its own right and all year the bars, restaurants and many shops are open.
Events taking place can be found on the Cavalaire web site or the St Tropez site. Both of these give information on special events and fete days, sporting events and general details of life in the 2 villages.

The coast around Cavalaire is rocky with pretty sandy accesible coves, although the 3 mile sandy beach of Cavalaire is beautiful. The headland to the east - Cap Lardier,is a national park and will never be built on. The walks around this headland are superb. Alternatively to the west at Le Rayol there is the marine national park, with scuba diving and snorkelling available and the most beautiful gardens. There are weekly musical evenings held at these gardens on a terrace overlooking the sea.

Nearby towns and villages, most are accessible by bus - its so cheap!

Isles d'Or and St Tropez:
The Isles d'or to the west of Cavalaire, are a group of islands accesible by ferry from Cavalaire or Le Lavondu. Levant is half military and half nudist, the second Port Cros is a national park with a beautiful tiny hamlet with restaurants - escapism at its best. The third Baghad is uninhabited and the fourth the largest Pourquerolles has a thriving village, vineyards and fantastic walking and cycling. Bikes can be rented for the day. The trip is well worth doing, but has to be reserved a day or so ahead in the summer.

To the east and west of Cavalaire there are many hill villages to explore, some rural and others like Gassin, easily accessible - providing the best views of the gulf of St Tropez .

Lastly, St Tropez has to be on the list to visit. It is a facinating place, expensive yachts and motor palaces alongside fishing boats. The shops are worth a look but just wander the streets and up to the fort and cemetry. The winter is great for exploring it. Tuesday and Saturday are the weekly market days and definitely worth a browse.

Cannes, Monaco, Nice:
Cannes has its film festival in May, and can easily be reached in an hour from Cavalaire.
Likewise Monaco and Nice are only 2 hours away and can either be visited as a day trip or with an overnight stay.

In October there are the “The Voiles de St Tropez “- a celebration of old j class boats, with daily races in the bay of St Tropez. What an event this is to see - fantastic fun to watch even if you do not sail yourself. The specific dates are on the St Tropez web site.

Westwards from Cavalaire, lies Hyeres and Toulon. Both of these towns are nice to visit and the airport of Toulon/St Tropez is only 40 minutes from Cavalaire and on a bus route. Toulon is also where the TGV stops.
The coastline is spectacular all the way from Cannes to Marseille. Although it is very easy to spend the whole holiday in Cavalaire and its near surroundings it is definitely worth visiting one or two of these towns. If you would like to go to Corsica, then the ferry leaves from Toulon.
