Accommodation and Facilities for the Bastide de la Source on Cote d'Azur - Riviera, France

Surroundings

The nearest village is Villars sur Var (approx. 3 km). It is a cosy medieval village which is located high above the river. It has good shopping facillities and 2 restaurants. Another fascinating village in the neighbourhood is Touët sur Var, which appears to lie 'glued' to the mountain side approx. 5 km further up the river. Here you have a pizzeria and the restaurant 'Chez Paul'. Approx. 25 km further up the river, the village Entrevaux is located. The old part and the citadel lies protected behind drawbridges. This is an medieval village which really is worth visiting. This applies almost to all the small medieval villages scattered around the mountain tops in the area.

Tennis and bungee jumping

In Touët it is possible to play tennis. The drive through Gorges du Cians offers a fantastic eventful experience and in the just as imposing Gorges de Daluis, you have the possibility to see/do 'bungee jumping'.

Rafting, Swimming and Fishing

The water in the swimming pool is coming directly from the spring. This means that there is no pump for circulation of the water and there is no added clorine. The gorgeous water of the Var river is inviting for swimmig, and you will see the fish leaping out of the water around you. Rafting equipment and a guide can be rented in the villages along the riverside.
