About this property

One Bedroomed Self Contained Guest Cottage with large private terrace and pool

Chic self contained Guest Cottage designed with flair for the comfort and relaxation of guests. Perfectly isolated with its own entrance, private terrace and separate driveway with automatic gates allows guests to come and go as they please.
The bedroom has a queen sized four poster bed with super comfortable mattress, feather pillows and crisp white bedlinen and adjoins the marble tiled shower room. There is a discreet kitchenette at one end of the well furnished sitting room which has fully retractable windows and shutters opening on to a private terrace with a table and chairs for outside dining or simply relaxing with a book in the sun.
Set amidst beautiful countryside, the property has grounds of 6.5 acres, much of which is woodland. Pins parasols and cork oaks abound and provide much needed shade during the hot summer months. The air is heady with the scent of mimosa, jasmine, rosemary and lavender, all of which grow wild. Pine martens, hares and rabbits leap around the land in the coolness of early morning whilst Skops Owls and Hoopoes hoot into life at twilight, followed by the chorus of nightingales. Our neighbours, French and English alike, describe it as 'un vrai Paradis'.
The property is hidden amongst woodland and vineyards and is very private with no neighbouring houses visible. It is surrounded by nature trails which makes the area popular with walkers and cyclists enjoying a little gentle exercise. For those who are interested in ancient stones, there are many Dolmens within walking distance of the property, which can be traced from local Ordnance Survey Maps. The swimming pool is set apart from the buildings, nestled in an oasis of its' own and surrounded by chairs and loungers. A covered wooden pavilion with cushioned seating sits at one end of the pool. Wide steps lead you easily into the water which maintains a steady 28 degrees from mid May to September. The pool is not shared with any other guests being our sole letting property. A fairly steep hill climb, just beyond the house, will lead you to a breathtaking view of the Gulf of St. Tropez.
For those wanting more excitement Ste Maxime with its numerous beach clubs is 10 minutes away. A 7minute Ferry across the Gulf will take you to St Tropez with as much shopping and partying as you could wish for.

Left feeling relaxed
The accommodation is in a very quiet location amongst Pine trees yet not far from a village that has everything you would need for your stay. Plenty to see and do all around and hosted by a lovely couple.

Wonderful Property
Wonderful property in beautiful surroundings and within easy reach of Plan De La Tour and the coast. Wonderful hosts who were very accommodating yet discreet. The accommodation itself is very comfortable and the pool area is stunning, set in beautiful grounds. Plan de La Tour has many lovely restaurants. We will be back! Richard and Tracy, Leeds, Uk

An amazing holiday
We had an amazing 9-night stay! Ideal for couples looking for a relaxed getaway to recharge. Apartment is very comfortable with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Connected to the owners’ residence but private and independent of the main house. Very nice outdoor spaces included personal terrace (great for evening/night food and drink), spacious grounds and a wonderful pool setup separate and private to the living spaces. Property is nicely located out of the way but has everything needed close by - ideal for those renting a car, with the local village ~5 minutes away and main shopping area ~15 minutes away. Best of both worlds! Hosts are amazing - very hospitable and welcoming, with great local knowledge useful for restaurant recommendations, planning trips and good wines! They made our stay all the better for their input. Our most relaxing and enjoyable holiday in years - we will be back!

What a lovely host and hostess and most important, what a lovely stay.
A filled fridge and a very warm welcome, although we were rather late. The highest rate is 5 stars, but that is not enough for a real rate. The pool, the garden, the village, the bbq, everything was more than perfect. And when we asked something, for instance a suggestion for a nice restaurant. We got a lot of suggestions also for a day sightseeing. And everything was more than great. We come back!! There was too less time for to discover more from the hosts and the Cote d' Azur. Warm and kind regards from Diane and Albert. We miss you already!!

Ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt auf “La Jassine” sehr genossen: Die Lage der Villa ist idyllisch und ruhig, trotzdem ist man mit dem Auto in 5 Minuten im nächsten Dorf, das alles bietet und in 20 Minuten am Strand. Das “Cottage” ist sehr gut ausgestattet und geräumiger als es auf den Photos erscheint, es ist zwar ein Anbau am Haupthaus, bietet aber genügend Privatsphäre. Das Gelände ist gepflegt und wirkt trotzdem sehr naturbelassen, der Pool ist groß und wird top gepflegt. Am erfreulichsten war der schöne Kontakt zu den Gastgebern, welche die Gegend gut kennen und stets hilfsbereit und ansprechbar waren. Wir kommen gerne wieder und können “La Jassine” nur empfehlen!

Perfekter Urlaubsort
Für zwei Personen, die Ruhe suchen, ist dies der perfekte Ort; wunderschöner Provence-Garten, grosser und gepflegter Pool. Die Wohnung und der gemütliche Sitzplatz liessen keine Wünsche offen. Das Anwesen liegt etwa 2 Kilometer ausserhalb des Dorfes in bewaldetem Gebiet. Von den Gastgebern sind wir sehr herzlich empfangen und verwöhnt worden. Auf bald!

Calme extraordinaire, a l écart de l agitation estivale
Charmante location meublée et décorée avec raffinement, literie d excellente qualité, jolie et fonctionnelle salle de douche. Linge de lit et serviettes fournis . Il pourrait y avoir 1 ou 2 casseroles supplémentaires... La piscine est un rêve, toujours propre et d une température agréable, dans la nature. Les propriétaires charmants , trés discrets et disponibles. À recommander vraiment . Catherine Riffaud

Beautiful and Relaxing
We had a fabulous stay in this beautiful part of France. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and to a high standard throughout. The owners were welcoming and very helpful. The pool was of a high standard, clean and just lovely for a swim and relaxation. The pool area is lovely, in beautiful surroundings. The accommodation is in a peaceful location, ideal to relax and recuperate. We split our time between visiting places of interest and relaxing by the pool with lunch on the terrace. There is plenty to see in the area of La Plan-de-la-Tour, including pretty hill-top villages (e.g. Grimaud and Gassin), and coastal hot-spots, including the beaches of Saint Tropez and Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mer. Sainte Maxime is about a 15 minute drive, from where there is a short (15min) foot passenger ferry to Saint Tropez. Cannes and Nice are easily accessible. The village of La Plan-de-la-Tour is possibly less of a tourist spot, but still pretty with plenty of restaurants, amenities and events. We had a perfect holiday and would certainly like to stay there again! Grace & Anthony

About the host

Hosted by Kate Faulkner

Host profile image
I am a sculptor and my husband is an actor. Ten years ago we purchased our house in France as a retreat and an antidote to London. Well.... that and the long balmy summers.! When we are here time stands still and problems fade away. . It has proved everything we hoped it would be.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Plan de la Tour when we first saw the village, nestled on the plain, between the mountains of the Var and the sea. The Route Touristique is not for the faint hearted but the views are stunning. Fortunately there is a far less challenging road to our village.
Our house sits in its own space: 6.5 acres of gently sloping woodland and gardens within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is very private and peaceful whilst being only a few minutes from the village and ten minutes from the beaches and night life of Ste Maxime and a quick ferry ride to the glamour of St Tropez.
A string of beach clubs at Les Issambres( next to Ste Maxime) are fantastic to spend the day , have a lazy lunch, swim in the warm Mediterranean Sea and lie on a lounger with a cocktail.

What makes this property unique

Our property is well isolated and sits in 6.5 acres of land. The cottage has its own entrance; its own driveway with automatic gates and its own terrace. There are no other guests or letting units.
The pool is only shared with us and we are very aware of allowing our guests their privacy. We usually use the pool at the beginning and end of the day when we clean the pool and check the water balance.
Anti bacterial cleaning products are used when preparing the cottage for guests.
