About this property
Between sea and forest, one of the most peaceful corners of the Var coastline
On Cap Bénat, in one of the wildest corners of the French Riviera, in the heart of a private and guarded domain of 200 hectares, the vast garden brings a great tranquility. On a shady path, you reach in 8 mn to a reserved beach. Around the house, a large secure pool, several dining areas depending on the weather, a nice garden and the forest. Many trails allow to discover the surroundings.
A roof terrace, dry stone walls to melt in the landscape, this house that follows the gentle slope knows how to be discreet. Well isolated from the neighborhood, its 160 m2 allow a comfortable home for 8 people.
On a wooded land of half a hectare covered with cork oaks, arbutus, and pine trees, a nice Mediterranean garden will allow you to pick figs and citrus fruits in season.
Following the slope, the house consists of a high part
- living room of 40 m2, open on 3 sides and several terraces
- bedroom of 12 m2, with bed of 160 by 190
- bathroom
- fully equipped kitchen
and an offset, larger, lower part
- 2 bedrooms of 9 m2, each with a bed of 80 by 190 and a trundle bed
- 1 bedroom of 12 m2, with a bed of 160 by 200
- 1 shower room with 2 sinks
- 1 large room of 22 m2, with 1 bed of 160 by 200, and a child's bed of 60 by 120
- 1 bathroom and shower
- 1 large laundry room / game room, mini kitchen with fridge, table football and ping-pong.
Outside, several terraces with dining areas
Recent TV. Livebox ADSL at limited speed except 3G, request the access code. Fixed telephone for French and mobile fixed French
Solar water heater, fireplace and recent electric radiators for the cold season

Large protected pool, 5m by 10, bordered by a wide beach, heated if necessary by heat pump. Shaded corner by store. Maintenance of the outsourced pool.

activities
7 tennis lessons in the Residence.
Strolls to the Pointe de l'Esquillette, Cape Bénat, the charming beach of Trippe with its white quartz gravel. On foot or by bike along the coast, to Fort Brégançon or Massif des Maures. The neighboring heights offer magnificent views to lovers of nature, colors or scents.
The 3 Golden Islands form with the coast a large expanse of protected water, ideal for seaside or marine activities. In the residence, next to the restaurant, a sailing club offers rentals and courses in season. Port Cros Island, the closest, is a terrestrial and marine natural park, and the island of Levant a renowned naturist center.
The village of Bormes is charming, and attracts painters and architects. His free museum is not lacking in interest. In the vicinity, several botanical gardens, the Annonciade Museum in St Tropez, famous for its impressionist collection, the Roman remains of Fréjus, the village of Collobrières and its frozen chestnuts, etc ...
Provencal cuisine is renowned, with its famous bouillabaisse. Ask us where to go. The local rosé is the best of France, and some reds are really worth it.
We will be absent, but easily reachable by phone or internet. Do not hesitate to contact us, we know the area very well, and can give you valuable advice.
