Le Jardin de St Tropez

As the name suggests, Le Jardin de St Tropez is located in the heart of the coastal town on the French Riviera, which means that due to its enviable location, car hire is not necessary. This chic property is nestled within magnificent walled gardens, overlooked by the villa’s signature tower and filled with fountains, palm trees, cacti and fragrant flowers and offers guests peace and privacy in equal measure. The villa itself has been renovated to the highest standard by the illustrious Tropezian architect François Vieillecroze and is filled with wonderful works of art and beautiful furniture, not to mention quirky design features such as the winding staircase and the wall of water which forms a backdrop to the dining room. The ground floor comprises this contemporary dining room, a fully-equipped kitchen and a wine cellar to sample the region's finest rosé. A spacious sitting room opens to the terrace. Across the lawn there is a fantastic pool area, furnished with loungers and parasols, a comfortable seating area and a poolside bar.

The master suite is on the first floor with a freestanding bath and hammam shower, while the second floor has a twin bedroom and shower room en suite. Two further bedrooms are accessed externally – one is set adjacent to the pool, both of which are en suite. Superb service is provided by a team of staff including a cook for 6 days per week and a concierge. The markets, bars and restaurants of sophisticated St Tropez are just a few minutes’ walk away, and breath-taking beaches within walking distance or a very short drive away. This is a very easy choice for a relaxing holiday.
