The Experience

Set up the barbecue, take dinner under the pergola and absorb the panorama; it swoops south to the Massif des Maures and ends in the Mediterranean. This spacious, secluded, 18th-century house, its thick walls oblivious to summer’s heat, stands in eight acres at the top of a long track.

There’s masses of space to spread out in two sitting rooms, two terraces, and a summer kitchen so it couldn’t be better for families and those wishing to escape the hubbub. You’ll find peaceful walks among the terraced olives and pines.

Enjoy the hinterland of the Var: the market comes on Tuesdays to medieval Lorgues (5km). Take a coffee in the town’s dappled shade; stop off for wines at Château Les Crostes. And if you fancy a day on the beaches, head off for the Riviera; lovely St Maxime and Fréjus are less than an hour away.

We have been renting houses in France for 30 years. Bastide Oleander is truly in a class of its own! The location is stunning. The house itself is incomparable! It is equipped with everything you could possibly need. All the equipment is of a very high standard. The beds are comfortable and the overhead fans ensure a pleasant nights sleep. The pool is excellent and there is plenty of solid shade in sight of the pool. An unforgettable 3 generation family holiday.

One of the nicest villas we’ve ever stayed in - incredibly comfortable and well equipped, with the most stunning views and outside areas. Such a beautiful area, too. We have already booked for next year!

Mike, Chipping Campden

We had the most wonderful 2 weeks at Bastide Oleander; three generations enjoying this beautiful house in glorious hot sunny weather. Trikia and Crispin could not have been more helpful, responding quickly to any and all questions we had. The pool and terraces provided long hours of enjoyment. The views are stunning. We loved our late evening meals on the terrace in perfect temperatures. We thoroughly recommend the busy, buzzy atmosphere in Lorgues in the early evening for a pre-dinner drink and some people watching

Location

The neighbourhood

High in the Haut-Var, the house lies midway between St Antonin du Var and the charming market town of Lorgues. Discover Michelin stars at Bruno; order aperitifs at Le Grillon on the Cours de la République. One of the closest and best vineyards to visit is at Château de Berne, a 15-minute drive. Equally close is Thoronet Abbey, one of the three Cistercian marvels of Provence. Sporty types can ride, hire bikes or kayak down the river Argens, just ten minutes away.

Local points of interest from Crispin & Trikia Holworthy

  • You’re 5 km from Lorgues with its picturesque streets, squares, fountains & shops. You’ll find many restaurants & cafés offering delicious Provençal cuisine. There’s fine dining at Château de Berne & the famous Bruno... a truffle inspired restaurant
  • Provence is famous for its produce, so you'll love Lorgues’ bustling Tuesday market. You can buy baskets, clothes, pottery & much, much more. Sample local produce & choose from an array of delicious food to take home & eat under the shade of the pergola
  • The Var region is full of pretty villages to explore. Well worth visiting is picturesque Cotignac, Salernes famous for its potteries, hilltop Tourtour known as ‘the village in the sky' & Entrecasteaux with its stunning Château ... to name just a few
  • The sandy beaches around Sainte Maxime & Frejus are the nearest & only 45 minutes away. Have lunch in one of the beach restaurants and relax on sunbeds. Or from Sainte Maxime take the ferry across the bay to Saint Tropez & mingle with the rich & famous
  • North in 50 minutes the unspoilt turquoise Lac St Croix with villages, beaches for swimming & picnicking is a must to visit. Hire a pedalo, kayak or electric boat & venture up the stunning, breathtaking Gorges du Verdon at the end of the lake.
  • Lorgues is in the middle of the famous wine making region of Côtes de Provence. Nearby there are many vineyards to visit for tasting & buying the excellent wines ... including Château Les Crostes & the renowned Château de Berne both just 15 minutes away
