Cotignac is a pretty, unspoiled Provence village set at the foot of ancient limestone cliffs, and designated 'Village de Caractère', and 'Un des plus beaux villages de France'. It was founded before the Romans, and in the 19th century was at the centre of the olive and silkworm industries. It is at the heart of the Côte de Provence vineyards. The village has many beautiful fountains and a weekly Provençal market, plus the benefit of several restaurants and shops. In the summer, a festival of films and concerts are presented in the spectacular outdoor 'Théatre du Rocher'. To the south, Cotignac is 1 hour from St. Tropez and the Cote d'Azur. To the north at 45 minutes is the breathtaking Gorge de Verdon and beautiful Lac St. Croix, with the lavender fields of Valensole nearby.To the west at 1hour is Aix en Provence, and Avignon at 2 hours. To the east the Italian border is 90 minutes away.

our wonderful stay

Jazzy UK
Review Submitted: July 14, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
This cottage is perhaps one of the most beautiful places I have stayed! The location is amazing, very secluded in the grounds with complete privacy yet close enough to get to the village to pick up whatever you need! The pool is lovely, ideal for cooling off in the heat of the south of france and so nice to have it all to ourselves. We were so very relaxed after just one week here and truly did not want to leave! Maggi and Derek are lovely hosts and we liked the cottage so much we have booked to come back again next year.

A perfect holiday home!

David, Hilary & Katherine Cheltenham UK
Review Submitted: May 29, 2010 Date of Stay: May 2010
This lovely house has it all! Large, very attractive, sheltered and totally private garden with lots of places to sit, lie or dine in sun or shade, including he attractive and warm pool. The house is very comfortable and is thoughtfully equipped with everything you need. Derek and Maggie are warm and very helpful hosts. The surrounding countryside is very pretty - olives and vines and attractive villages. We had a relaxing and memorable holiday without straying very far at all.

A perfect cottage for a perfect holiday

David and Inna London, UK
Review Submitted: September 14, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
A beautiful cottage in a beautiful location. Maggi and Derek provided a warm welcome, and have equipped Les Cypres with everything you could wish for. On the days when we managed to tear ourselves away from the pool, we had a great time exploring the surrounding area, including the stunning scenery of the Verdun Gorge, and lots of picturesque provencal villages. Cotignac, just a few minutes drive away, is a charming village with some nice restaurants, but you’ll want to spend most nights sitting out under the arbour with a glass of wine and some food on the barbeque.
