The holiday home
The villa in Montauroux
(Var) is situated 20 km as the crow flies north of Saint Raphaël on the
French Mediterranean coast, only 5 min. by foot to the village center, ontop of a hill
(300 m) with a wonderful panoramic view of the old provençal villages
Montauroux and Callian,
in the enchanting landscape of the Estérel mountains,
surrounded by unspoiled nature between the foothills of the Alps, the Mediterranean and the
gorges of the Siagne.

The village
The massive steeple dominates the ancient village of Montauroux
with its narrow lanes and its houses dating back to the 17th and 18th Centuries.
Built on a hilltop the village had a certain strategic importance in the
Mediaeval times, to which still today the remains of the ancient castle bear
testimony. Much visited tourist attractions are:
the lake of Saint Cassien,
the gorges of the Haute-Siagne,
the bamboo
forest and the other mountain
villages.
