Framed by tall pine trees and the shifting blues of the Mediterranean, Bastide With A View captures the easy rhythm of Riviera living from the moment you arrive. Just a short stroll from the shoreline, this historic country house looks out across the sea, where warm, characterful interiors are paired with thoughtful contemporary touches and a striking infinity pool. Mornings begin with coffee on the terrace with sea vistas, before drifting between the shade of the olive tree and sunlit swims.

Designed as a genuine home, this is a place shaped by its owner’s love of travel and gathering. Generous interiors unfold across this 19th century home, with a spacious living and dining room alongside a newly renovated modern kitchen. Five air-conditioned bedrooms offer comfort and privacy for up to 10 guests, including a children’s dorm with toys and books, and a master sea-view double with its own en suite and direct access to the garden and pool below.

Thoughtful touches such as Wi-Fi and a Smart TV ensure an easy stay, while a Bose Bluetooth speaker and a curated selection of books and games create family moments to savour together. Evenings are best spent outside, gathered around the electric plancha as the sky softens into dusk.

Meanwhile, the poolside terrace invites lazy afternoons on loungers, while table tennis, pétanque balls and gorgeous terraces offer simple pleasures for all ages, accompanied by the scent of lavender and pine. A welcome bottle of rosé wine awaits, setting the tone for unhurried days.

Perched just 250 metres from the coast, the house enjoys a prime position within walking distance to the sea. Seasonal beachside restaurants and calm waters are close by, while nearby Les Issambres and Sainte-Maxime offer shops, bakeries and boat connections across to Saint-Tropez. 

For families or friends seeking sun, sea and historic charm, Bastide With A View is a beautifully positioned holiday home for experiencing this captivating corner of the Côte d’Azur.
