Beautiful experience of Provencal village life in a gorgeous home

The house was wonderful. Its layout was perfect for two teens and parents with both having spaces. The decor was gorgeous and the location just divine. The village is so vibrant and friendly and there was so much to do in the area. We.loved the local pool and haunts to thé boulangerie in the morning. All in all a fabulous experience and great place to stay.

Perfect for a relaxing break in LGF

We've had many holidays in this village, usually in July and August, and wanted to to experience it in the Spring. La Chouannerie was ideal for us. It's within the village so an easy walk to buy the bread, find a cafe or restaurant, or just to stroll around. And it's in a quiet street away from the traffic and noise. It has large well-furnished rooms and is generally very comfortable. We used the double bedroom upstairs while the children and grand-children had the double and twin rooms downstairs with their own bathroom. The kitchen/dining room has plenty of space and all the appliances worked well. We used the large dining tale for most of our meals and had breakfast and lunch on the terrace when the sun shone. I'm sure in the summer you will eat all meals on the terrace. In April the evenings were chilly but the heating worked well and the lounge is fine for 6 of us to watch DVD's, Netflix etc. La Garde Freinet is ideal if you want to take in the beaches and hot-spots of the Cote d'Azure and then escape the crowds to experience the fresh air and peace of the mountains just 30 mins drive from the coast. It also has plenty of restaurants, bars, cafes and shops should you wish just to relax. I would recommend La Chouannerie at any time of the year.

Wir hatten eine traumhafte Zeit. Wir wurden sehr herzlich in Empfang genommen und fanden ein aufgeräumtes, überdurchschnittlich großes und liebevoll ausgestattetes Haus vor. Es mangelte an nichts. Die große Küche lädt ein, zum Kochen alle Utensilien sind reichlich vorhanden. Besonders zu erwähnen ist die große Dachterrasse, die uns wunderschöne Stunden beschert hat, Ein großer Gasgrill, ein eigener Kühlschrank und sogar ein Wasserhahn stehen dort zusätzlich zur Küche zur Verfügung. Das Haus ist perfekt für Familien, Eltern genießen ihre Ruhe im 2. Stock, während die Kinder im Erdgeschoss zwei wunderschöne große und im Sommer kühle Schlafzimmer und ein eigenes Bad/WC haben. Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren sehr sauber und ausreichend vorhanden. Das WLAN ist ebenfalls hervorragend, meine vielen Videokonferenzen konnte ich problemlos abhalten. Der Ort ist malerisch, man kann lebhafte Abende verbringen - die Gastronomie ist vielfältig und hervorragend, nachts ist es ruhig. Fußläufig findet man in weniger als 2 Minuten einen vollausgestatteten Supermarkt, der täglich bis 20 Uhr geöffnet hat. Wir haben immer einen guten Parkplatz für unser großes Auto gefunden, auch wenn die Straßen etwas schmal sind. Für den sehr freundlichen und immer sehr schnelle Kontakt zu Paul, unserem Vermieter, bedanken wir uns herzlich und kommen sehr gerne wieder! Vielen lieben Dank.

Très bon séjour

Le séjour était agréable, la maison pleine de charmes ayant bien ce cachet des maisons de Provence. Par contre attention aux escaliers si vous avez des enfants petits. La maison est spacieuse et est très bien équipées, avec une très belle terrasse. Pour les moins , je dirai que la Garde Freinet, est une petite ville plutôt qu'un village, l'avantage c'est qu'il y a toutes les commodités, commerce, pharmacie, restaurants, etc..., autre point un peu négatif à noter c'est qu'il il n'y a pas de parking privé, les rues sont très étroites et parfois c'est difficile de trouver de la place, mais c'est aussi ce qui fait le charme de l'endroit. On est à une vingtaine de kilomètre de Saint-tropez, Sainte-Maxime et donc des plages. Possibilités également de faire de sympathique randonnées.

About the host

Hosted by Paul Tasker

Host profile image

We now live in Australia with two of our three adult children. My wife and I are both retired and are intent on spending most of our holidays in France, where we can enjoy sun, food and wine. We bought our new home in 2011 and plan to many spend happy family holidays there.

Why they chose this property

We love La Garde Freinet because it is an iconic French village only 30 mins drive from beautiful beaches, great golf courses and chic restaurants. The area is fantastic for walking and enjoying the countryside. There really is something for everyone here. The area is easily accessible with Nice only an hour and a quarter's drive away.

We are both Australian and miss the sun filled days of our youth. La Garde Freinet offers this and so much more.

What makes this property unique

The house is over 300 years old and is only a stroll from the centre of the village. The south facing sun terrace is exceptional and the remaining rooms are full of character with many charming features.
