La Bastide De Bigarel

About this property

With wisteria cascading over its pink façade, La Bastide de Bigarel rises from wildflowers and pretty terraces, facing the distant hilltop village of Callian. Surrounded by olive trees, herb gardens and open countryside, this contemporary villa offers a striking setting where nature and comfort meet in perfect balance.

Designed for relaxed outdoor living, the villa’s west-facing terrace captures golden afternoons and dusky sunsets. Across the grounds discover the private pool glistening beside shaded lounging spaces, a summer kitchen complete with pizza oven and barbecue, and a swing-sofa set beside a bubbling jacuzzi with stunning views. A three-hole putting green invites a little playful competition as the day winds down.

Inside, spacious double-aspect living and dining areas feature French windows connecting guests to the landscape beyond. The kitchen opens onto a charming conservatory with fully retractable doors for effortless indoor-outdoor dining. Each of the villa’s four bedrooms is air-conditioned, with two elegant en-suites and a bunk-bed room. One double enjoys a private balcony, where early risers can sip coffee while the village comes to life in the distance.

Just minutes from local bakeries and bustling markets, La Bastide de Bigarel sits between the characterful villages of Callian and Montauroux. Here, café terraces spill onto cobbled squares and weekly markets brim with local produce.

Within 40 minutes, guests can reach the beaches of Cannes, the galleries of Antibes or the scent-laden streets of Grasse, the perfume capital of the world. For active days, kayaking on Lac de Saint-Cassien or golfing at Terre Blanche offer unforgettable moments just a short drive away.

Whether savouring sundowners by the pool or exploring the Riviera hinterland’s timeless charm, La Bastide de Bigarel is a place to gather, unwind and reconnect in true southern French style.

This beautiful countryside bastide lies close to the charming hilltop villages of Callian – the views towards the village from the terraced grounds are stunning. The area is wonderfully connected, just 40 minutes from the glamorous shores of Cannes and the perfume-rich streets of Grasse, with Nice Airport only 40km away.

It’s a short drive to Callian (or the most energetic could walk uphill in less than half an hour) for restaurants. In the other direction, the pretty village of Montauroux also awaits. Across both villages, guests can meander through cobbled lanes, sip coffee in charming cafés and enjoy long lunches on shaded terraces.

Culture and nature intertwine beautifully here. The local villages of Fayence and Seillans offer irresistible Provençal charm, bursting with artisan shops, weekly markets and celebrated restaurants. Golf enthusiasts will be drawn to the world-renowned Terre Blanche Golf Course just 10 minutes away by car, while spa lovers can unwind at the Four Seasons Resort or Domaine de Fayence, both offering indulgent treatments and serene settings.

Lac de Saint-Cassien, within a 15-minute drive, is a haven for families and outdoor lovers alike. With pedalos, kayaking, lake beaches and a floating water park in the height of the summer, it’s the perfect spot to cool off under the Mediterranean sun. Other activities in this region include hikes, horse-riding, mountain biking, forest walks and even gliding above the hills from the airfield near Fayence.

Grasse, the world’s perfume capital, offers a sensory journey through its characterful streets and legendary fragrance houses - try your hand at crafting your own scent. Meanwhile, the French Riviera beckons with Cannes, Antibes and Juan-les-Pins offering sandy beaches, world-class dining and vibrant nightlife that draws celebrities and jet-setters alike.

Whether you’re seeking hinterland seclusion, cultural exploration or Riviera sparkle, this countryside location offers it all.
