The mediaeval hilltop village of Tourtour, known as 'le village dans le ciel' because of its elevated position and panoramic views, lies 20 mins NW of Draguignan in the beautiful and unspoilt Haut Var. With its shady square, historic church and castle and many little shops and restaurants it is easy to see why it is listed as 'un des plus beaux villages de France'. It is 30 mins from the Gorges de Verdon and the Lac Ste Croix, about 1 hr from the coast and midway (75 mins) between Aix & Nice.

Additional information about rental rates

  • A minimum rental period of 2 weeks is required between 3 July and 3 September 2010. Special rates can be negotiated outside the school holidays for parties of less than 4 people or for long-term rentals. A security deposit of £500 is required for all rentals. Pool heating is available, in May/June and September/October, depending on the weather. The cost of laundry and cleaning the property at the end of your stay is included, though we ask tenants to leave the property in the state in which they found it and any extra cleaning may be charged against the security deposit.

Further details for this holiday villa rental in Tourtour, France

The domaine: The quiet residential domain of St Pierre, just 3km from Tourtour, offers a safe and varied environment for a family holiday. There are 4 tennis courts (book-able in July/August), a 24 x 12m communal swimming pool with changing rooms and showers, a beautiful ornamental lake and many lovely walks. There are also two restaurants within walking distance of the house. We carried out a number of improvements to the property in 2008, including: - doubling the size of the main terrace, so there is now a pleasant, shady sitting-out area overlooking the pool as well as the original dining area; - adding a small lawned area on the far side of the pool for extra sunlounging space; - terracing and planting the hillside below the pool to create a delightful lower terrace from which to enjoy the view and catch the early morning and late evening sun; - upgrading the pool and patio furniture so that guests can relax in even more style and comfort!

Local attractions: La Caille-Perdrix is the ideal base from which to explore this unspoilt part of Provence. Local attractions include: mountain biking, riding, fishing and golf; the spectacular Gorges de Verdon, France's answer to the Grand Canyon, with rock climbing, canoeing and white-water rafting; the Lac St Croix for swimming, sailing, windsurfing and boating activities; in the winter, skiing just 2 hours away at Isola and Val d'Allos. And, for the less adventurous: many pretty villages, including Salernes famous for its tiles and Moustiers for its decorative porcelain; lively Provencal markets, antique/craft fairs, art exhibitions, concerts and fetes; an excellent choice of restaurants, ranging from the local tabac, to those with a Michelin star; wine-tasting in the many domaines in the area producing Cote Varois; the coast (not to mention the night-life) at St Maxime and St Tropez. And for those who wish to do simply nothing at all, this is also the perfect place to relax and unwind.

Other Activities: wine-tasting, boating (30 mins); white-water rafting (45 mins); skiing (2 hrs)
