The house is situated in a quiet area close to the historic, cliff top towns of Castellet and La Cadiere and the seaside towns of Bandol and Cassis. Further afield, the cities of Marseilles and Aix en Provence abound with sightseeing options, shopping and cultural events. The region is also well known for its pleasant Bandol wines, and wine tasting visits can easily be arranged. For most, however, the biggest attraction is the Mediterranean itself, and the many beaches nearby. The area is also known for its famous 'Calanques' - the dramatic limestone cliffs between Marseilles and Cassis with their hidden bays and secluded beaches, accessible only on foot or by boat. A number of islands can also be reached by short ferry rides, including the beautiful Porquerolles islands. The area offers numerous possibilities for sports activities, notably hiking, cycling and water sports. For golfers, the nearby 'La Fregate' offers a world-class golf course.
