Unquestionably one of the most select properties in the South of France. Nestled amongst a huge 54 hectares of renowned Cotes de Provence vines, it produces probably the most famed rosé of all. DLF 0181 is a charmingly renovated villa with 9 lovely modern bedrooms and a private pool. There is a private access directly onto the incredible Pellegrin Beach where you can paddle board, snorkel, swim or soak up the sun. Dreamlike evenings are spent drinking rosé whilst playing pétanque and al fresco dining in the courtyard under the stars. There are many daytime activities including wines tours, private boat trips to Porquerolles or simply exploring the local towns of Bormes Les Mimosa and Le Lavandou. Welcome to the authentic South of France.
Wonderfully renovated in 2009 back to its former glory the property is spread over 3 areas: the main house, the pool house and the gate house, all of them with direct access to the typical Provencal courtyard. The villa offers 9 bedrooms and can accommodate up to 18 guests. The spacious rooms are a charming mix of polished concrete floors and hand crafted ethnic fabrics. Very large metal window frames fill the rooms with natural light. There is a vast sitting room and a dining room seating up to 18 guests, however most dining occurs under the stars to the sound of the Cicadas.
Nestled amongst about 60 hectares of vines, the estate benefits from a prestigious location between La Londe and the Presidential Palace at Fort Brégançon. Take a wine tour of the cellars and the grounds or walk down the path to the beach adorned by juicy grapes and leafy vines.
Pellegrin Plage is one of the last intact beaches in the South of France and you will benefit from private access to it. The same as Brigitte Bardot would have found it when she first visited the region in the 1950s, quiet, private and amazingly beautiful. The water is warm from June to October and you can sit back and enjoy chilled rosé and grilled fish tacos. Sun loungers to soak up the sun, paddle boards and snorkel gear to seek out adventures are available. Walk to the Léoube Cafe for Octopus Salad and come back tot the house for supper and pétanque.
The estate enjoys convenient access to neighboring villages and towns such as the lovely hillside Bormes Les Mimosa or the ever fabulous St Tropez. The real gems of this part of the South of France are the golden islands of Porquerolles, Port Cros and Le Levant, accessible in less than 20 minutes. Rent a boat for the day or for your entire stay.
Les Côtes de Provence is one of the most picturesque wines regions in the world and there are many fabulous vineyards to visit and explore. Villa's driver service is at your disposal to take you to tastings at the glorious Whispering Angel or the renowned Miraval estates amongst others, you decide.
Villa onsite team, including a house manager and breakfast team, will be there to care about you during your stay. A healthy buffet breakfast and housekeeping are included on each day of your stay. If you wish to have a private chef arranged for dinner then this can be organized in advance when available. A substantial à la carte wine list is also available.
