ACTIVITIES AT THE DOMAINE

​

Relax and sit by the pool to catch a few rays, relax in the shady pool-house playing board-games  or ping-pong, or for the more active, explore the many miles of local hiking and biking trails which lead straight from the front door.   You will find a range of different sized bikes ready for your use. 

​

 Take a 1/2 hour stroll up the hill to the monastery where you can fill up your water bottle from the fresh St Joseph Spring and spend a contemplative moment in the beautiful hilltop chapel.  Walk or bike through the hills to different local villages such as Correns, Mont Fort and Pontèves, where a well-deserved drink or provencal lunch awaits you. 

​

Alternatively, while away the warmer hours of the day in one of the hammocks hidden in the the shady corners of our four-hectare garden.  Children will also be delighted to find the large sunken trampoline behind the summer kitchen . 

​

For those who with a penchant for wild-swimming,  take a plunge in the cool blue pools below the dramatic waterfalls of Sillans la Cascade, which are 10 minutes away.   Or, drive a further 25 minutes and you will reach the azure blue waters of Lac St Croix and the impressive western end of the Gorges du Verdon.

​

The village of Cotignac has a very active tennis club which you can join for a minimal fee for the duration of your stay and play as much as you  like.
