About this property

Pretty gîte (2 pers) open from April 15 to October 31

Covering an area of 40 m2 on one level with the garden on one hectare of land planted with olive trees, lavenders, truffle trees with free access, private grassy terrace with table, chairs, and parasol; the cottage is composed of a very bright living room equipped with a sofa, coffee table, wardrobe, television, kitchen area (4 ceramic hobs, oven, sink, fridge, large work surface, coffee maker, toaster, extractor hood), dining table and chairs.
A bedroom with 1 king-size double bed (1m60 by 2m) very comfortable (Vosges bedding, anti-mite and anti-allergenic natural materials), bedside table, wardrobe.
A bathroom (shower, sink, toilet)
Housed in a former sheepfold completely renovated, this character cottage is in the heart of the Verdon Regional Park, a magnificent region with its pure waters lakes surrounded by high plateaus where lavender, olive and truffle trees grow.
Ideal starting point to discover the many medieval villages (Aups, Sillans-la cascade Régusse, Moissac, Tourtour, Bauduen, near the cottage and a little further, Aiguines, Moustiers-ste-Marie, Ste Croix-du Verdon, laugh Roman, Quinson ... and many others! the region is a paradise for hikers of all levels; we can advise you (documentation available).
You can swim in the lakes (very clean water and a pleasant temperature in summer) and take advantage of the many shaded beaches.
And of course you have to go to the discovery of the spectacular Gorges du Verdon and take the two routes (left bank and right bank) dotted with numerous stopping points to admire the panoramas without forgetting the aerial route des crêtes, domain of vultures; Some villages not to be missed: La Palud, Trigance, Comps-sur Artuby and higher Castellane.
The less frequented, wilder Basses-Gorges are mainly discovered by marked hiking trails (sunscreen, hat recommended, provide enough water! and also by canoe-kayak (rental companies on site), pedal boats or electric boats.
The village of Quinson has an interesting prehistoric museum with a reconstructed prehistoric village on the banks of the Verdon; a pretty typical village, beautiful nature areas by the lake and rental of pedal boats and kayaks.
One of the great assets of the region is the presence of water almost everywhere! which allows you to end a day of hiking or exploring by car by swimming!
The lively Provencal markets take place in all the villages (in Aups on Wednesday and Saturday morning and in Régusse on Sunday morning for those closest to you!
In season, many festivities are offered to vacationers (almost every evening, something happens in a nearby village).
The region is also rich in a terroir heritage (olive oil, honey, wines, nougat, white truffles in summer and black in winter, local fruits and vegetables, goat and sheep cheeses ...)
Lavender is present everywhere (very spectacular flowering in June, it is harvested in mid-July and used for cosmetics and essential oil (beneficial for many small ailments to buy only organic!) .
What the Verdon Regional Park offers are nature vacations whether you are sporty or not, everyone will find something to take care of according to their tastes.
Calm, rejuvenation, independence, conviviality ...

The swimming pool welcomes you in the middle of olive trees and bamboos without time constraints.

Ein wunderbarer Urlaub
Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in 'le bastidon'. Die Vermieterin hat uns sehr freundlich begrüßt und uns alles gezeigt. Es ist wie beschrieben alles da, was man benötigt ohne großen Luxus aufzuweisen. Für zwei Personen mit Hund genau richtig. Ein paar Informationen hätten wir jedoch gerne schon bei der Buchung gehabt. Dazu gehört, dass der eingezäunte Pool nicht für sich alleine steht, sondern das Haus der Vermieterin mit Garten inklusive Pool eingezäunt ist und die Vermieterin ebenfalls einen Hund (die nette Rose) besitzt sowie, dass dort Katzen leben. Auserdem gibt es noch ein zweites Appartement, welches vermietet wird, sodass ggf. noch weitere Menschen und Tiere sich dort aufhalten. Das ist an sich kein Problem, da wir wirklich jederzeit den Pool, samt Liegen oder Stühlen nutzen konnten. Jedoch mit einem jungen Hund, der keine Katzen kennt/mag und gerne alles (also auch den Bereich der Vermieterin) erkundet, sind solche Informationen im Vorfeld besser, da eben nicht jeder Hund bereits ein gelassener und entspannter Hund ist, sondern es erst noch werden möchte. Es ist ganz wichtig, dass deutlich wird, dass es ein sehr schöner Urlaub für uns war und wir uns in dieser Unterkunft sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Die Vermieterin hat die Erkundungstouren unseres Hundes sehr gelassen gesehen. Als Ausgangspunkt für Erkundungen der Provence der perfekte Standort. Vielen Dank für die schönen Ferien.
