Prelude 8

Overview

Villa Prelude makes the most of its hillside position, the accommodation is laid out over four levels and the views can be enjoyed from rooms on every floor. Internally the villa is spacious and cool, tastefully refurbished in an easy-living, modern style, and air-conditioned throughout, which is a real bonus in the summer. Outdoors, the covered dining and seating terrace is a particularly comfortable place to spend your time, relaxing in the shade or sunshine and soaking up the views. The infinity pool and pool deck is just below, and of course you can access the garden easily from the different levels.

There is a good choice of restaurants and pavement cafes in the lovely medieval perched village of Grimaud, just 5 kilometers from the villa - a very pleasant place to stroll around with its narrow old streets, traditional buildings, ruined castle and old bell tower. Other attractive villages to visit nearby include La Garde Freinet and Plan de la Tour, which also offer plenty of restaurants and shops. St Tropez itself is less than 16 kilometers away - there are restaurants, cafes, art galleries and boutiques galore here too of course. The old town is charming and well worth visiting, and the Tuesday and Saturday markets held on the Place des Lices are full of local life. The long sandy beaches are a short drive and there are many activities available locally such as boating and sailing, riding, walking or hiking, and even a funfair. This region of France with its welcoming climate makes an ideal location for a holiday both in and out of high season.
