Overview

Set in sublime scenery of woodland, vineyards and olive groves, right in the heart of France's spectacular "Green Provence", this family run country Guest House invites you to a haven of tranquillity and relaxation amidst lovely natural surroundings. A little piece of paradise, offering a true hideaway from everyday stress and noise.

Enjoy the luxury ambiance of this charming Provencal manor with its 5 spacious bed and breakfast lodgings (ensuite, double bed) and 2 fully equipped one-room self-catering flats, which sleep up to 4. All is carefully decorated and outfitted with valuable country-stylish teakwood furniture. Wooden ceiling beams, terra cotta-floors and hand waxed pastel-coloured walls create a cosy Mediterranean atmosphere, which will instantly make you feel comfortable. Situated on the first floor, all lodgings offer a splendid view of the natural surroundings.

Guests benefit from amenities like a large pool swathed in greenery with deck chairs and umbrellas, Mediterranean gardens and a vast nature park around the house, an on-site wellness oasis offering jacuzzi-spa and professional massage services, a sunny terrace with outdoor furniture, the "Hall of Knights" with cosy fire place and a lounge with library, sat-TV, DVD player, computer, WIFI, internet, minibar and guest kitchen.

Bras is a quaint medieval village, ancient command post of the Knights Templar, idyllically nestled between the lushly wooded hills and mountains of "Green Provence". A little piece of paradise for all lovers of nature and authenticity. The surroundings offer many picturesque corners for extensive hikes and walking tours but also a variety of other activities like biking, climbing, horse riding, canoeing, boating, paragliding, tennis, golf, fishing and many more… And not to forget: thanks to its central situation halfway between the Verdon Gorges and the French Riviera, "La Bastide des Templiers" is the perfect base from which to tour Provence and see most of its famous attractions.

Comfort, quality and hospitality of this Guest House is certified "Caractère Provence Verte" and recommended by numerous accommodation guides. Tripadvisor top-rated.

Be advised that this property is not suited for children under 12 years. Its wild character with plunging terraces and age-old drystone walls constitute an accident risk for them, which the owners are not willing to accept.

Location & Transportation

Ideally situated half way between the Verdon river and the Mediterranean Sea, you can easily reach from here all of Provence's famous sights including the breathtaking Verdon Canyon, the majestic limestone massifs and hiker paradise of Sainte-Victoire and Sainte-Baume, the lavender fields of Valensole, the beautiful beaches of Hyeres, the nearly untouched island of Porquerolles, the exciting French Riviera, the extraordinary rocky bays ('Calanques') of Cassis and Marseilles or the region's cultural capital Aix-en-Provence with all her vibrant markets, festivals, concerts and exhibitions.

  DirectionsBras is easy to reach, because only 5 miles away from major traffic lines like the motorway A8 and the highway N7 (Aix-en-Provence - Nice), north of Saint-Maximin-La-Sainte-Baume.

By car: Leave the A8 in Saint-Maximin (exit #34) and immediately after the toll station turn right to Bras or head for the town center and follow the country road D28 to Bras. In Bras drive on to the center (until "Café Nemrod"), and after 200 ft. turn left at the plane trees into "Emile Combes" lane. Then follow our blue signs for another mile to the hilltop.

By plane: International Airports are Marseille-Provence (45 miles from us) and Nice-Cote d'Azur (85 miles).

By train: get off at high-speed railway station in Marseilles-St.Charles or Aix-en-Provence (both 40 miles from us)
From those airports or train stations you may take a bus line to Saint-Maximin and then come by taxi to Bras or rent a car. The Guest House also offers a pick-up service (payable).
