Description from the owner
Tucked into the hills, la vielle Bastide offers a loving example of a quaint homely French farmhouse. Half an hours drive from St.Tropez.
La Vielle bastide is, without contradiction, one of the few remaining natural environments left in the region. Nestling in the folds of The Maures Mountains and 1/4 of a mile from the main Le Luc to St.Tropez road you can be forgiven for thinking for thinking that you have been transported to another century. Completely hidden from view, the narrow track leading to La Vielle Bastide opens out into meadow land and vineyards. Sheltered from the mistral, olive groves, tropical cacti, and tropical palms f...lourish and there is an abundance of fruit trees. This sheltered valley, lovingly tended over the centuries, offers many surprises, its hidden river is discovered when following through a small track through a vineyard and a copse. La Vielle Bastide towers above you when you arrive, nestling warmly into the hillside and covered with ivy. A series of terraces planted with lavender, thyne, and rosemary flank its footage
Tucked into the hills, Le Vieux Bastide offers a loving example of a quaint homely French farmhouse. Here we have endeavoured to mix what you want with what you need and what the family has handed down. The style is French Country, and the mixture of colour and filtered light charming you in a way that is refreshingly Provencal.
Here you will find the atmosphere warm and welcoming. The white walls provide an excellent backdrop to many of our family and friend's paintings, collected over the years. The furnishings are informal but comfortable. There is a large stove for burning logs fitted within the chimney, and ample display and reading lights.
kitchen
Our kitchen is of apricot and grey with white walls and an old colonial fan above. The white walls are punctuated by display units, niches and shelves featuring local pottery in vivid blue, white, and yellow. The south facing window overlooks the valley and the swimming pool. The individually designed kitchen is fitted with limed oak units and the work tops are of hand made coloured tiles from Salernes. There is a mixture of chestnut shelves and granite work tops with a butcher's block for the convenience of food preparation. The appliances include a dishwasher, cooker, fridge freezer and microwave.
