The house
Beautifully renovated house with views over the hills and a private heated swimming pool.
The Bergerie is situated in a rural setting in the middle of the Provence, close to the artistic village of Bargemon, 45 minutes hours driving from the coast.
The house is built in the original provincial character with a magnificent garden and the romantic style that many more modern houses lack.
The house is large 1800 square feet and has been decorated by the owners (Véronique Jansen is an interior designer) to a high level of taste and colour.
You enter the spacious hall with staircase to the first level.
On the right there is the cosy living kitchen equipped with all modern day devices such as dishwasher refrigerator/freezer, hob etc. a dining table for 10 and french doors opening out onto the garden.
In the pantry there is a washing machine with iron and ironing plank.
Large living room with a big fireplace, comfortable settee and beamed ceiling.
There is a satellite TV, DVD and stereo with CD player.
The French doors led out onto a shadowy cosy terrace with dining table.
From the hall on the ground floor, with separate toilet you come into the main bedroom with a double bed and doors opening out into the garden, en suite bathroom with shower, toilet and washbasin.
On the 1st floor are 2 bedrooms, with beautiful views.
Since you will be staying in the mas type, the first charming bedroom is located on the semi-open loft.
You walk through a hallway to bedroom 2.
In the hall on the left is a small bathroom (with a beautiful view) with a bath with shower facility and sink.The separate toilet is located on the left side of the hall
On the 2nd floor is a separate 'studio', with beautiful views over the entire valley.

Margriet Veldhuizen from Amersfoort,
Wij hebben genoten van een heerlijke week in een prachtig en verzorgd huis met een heel fijn zwembad en prachtig uitzicht. Huis is sfeervol ingericht, waardoor het ook bij een dag minder weer fijn is om te zijn. Daarnaast is de keuken voorzien van alles wat je maar kunt bedenken! Super!
Goed om te weten met jonge kinderen is dat de bovenste verdieping alleen buitenom bereikbaar is.
Wij komen heel graag nog eens terug!Comment from Veronique Jansen
Beste Arnold & Margriet,
Hartelijke dank voor deze positieve recensie; word ik heel blij van van.
Dank-jullie-wel!
Jullie zijn van harte welkom om nog een keer terug te komen!
PS Er gaat dit jaar nog wat veranderen in de Bergerie --> In de woonkamer komt een grote raampartij met openslaande deuren aan de kant van met mooie uitzicht op de olijfgaard van de buren!
Hartelijke groeten, VéroniqueKelly from Den Bosch,
Wij hebben een fotoshoot gehad rondom deze prachtige villa. De tuin had genoeg mooie plekjes en ook binnen was het huis erg netjes met een ruime living. Het contact verliep erg soepel met welgemeende interesse en behulpzaamheid vanuit de verhuurster. Al met al geen slecht woord te zeggen over deze locatie!
Comment from Veronique Jansen
Dank jullie wel voor de beoordeling Kelly!
Leuk om een team van Sissy Boy in de Bergerie te mogen hebben.
Ben heel benieuwd hoe de foto-reportage is geworden.
Ik ga de beelden binnenkort op jullie website bekijken.
Misschien tot ziens....... en dan in de zomer...... :).
Groetjes, VéroniqueKris from Antwerpen,

Comment from Veronique Jansen
Dank je wel Kristel en familie.
Jullie waren volgens onze care-taker de "beste" gasten ever.
Vriendelijk, hartelijk en jullie hebben het huis meer dan netjes achter gelaten.
Heel veel dank daarvoor!
Misschien tot een volgende keer!Hartelijke groeten, Véronique Jansen
Restaurants, food & wine
Bargemon has a few very good restaurants.
In Other villages we can recommend:
Restaurant Bruno in Lorgues (truffles)
Gorge dus Pennefort close to Calles
Restaurant, Chez Hugo, les Castellares and Les Deux Rocs in Seillans
Furthermore, at CHEZ HUGO (a favorite of ours), you can also enjoy delicious food at an affordable price.
Hugo's parents have a Chambre d'Hotes in Seillans (Les Combes Longues). Mother and son are very good cooks. To us they are the best in their field, in the region.
In our area you can also find a few good wineries.
For example: Chateau d'Esclans and Chateau Sainte Rosaline.
And of course you can taste here their excellent wines.
A very famous winery in La Motte is: Chateau d'Esclans.
Sacha Lichine settled in La Motte-en-Provence in 2006 and bought Château d'Esclans from a Swedish family.
Sacha is the son of world-renowned winemaker and writer Alexis Lichine.
He has only one goal and that is to make the best rosé in the world.
Activities
Within half an hour you will find several renowned golf courses of which Terre Blanche in Fayence, the Taulane in La Martre, designed by Gary Playet and the famous Royal Mougins and St Andreol in La Motte.
At approximately 45 mins driving you have the Cote d’Azur of which some of the places to visit are Théoule sur Mer, Les Issambres and St. Maxime.

Further remarks
What we love about our Bergerie is, is that our home has a real SOUL.
It's not a prefab "perfect" house, buits it's an old, renovated house, with thick walls, beams and a lot of "secrets".
The house has a beautiful view, peaceful, with distant views on the mountains and also on a big beautiful olive groove.
the garden is 6000 square meters large and has around 50 olive trees, olanders, fig trees, mimosa, an almond tree etc. etc.
The house is originally an old sheepfold (La Bergerie), whose core has very thick walls, which gives extra character to the whole.
La Bergerie is situated in a complete private setting, but not isolated, which was very important for us.
The house is situated only 2 kilometers from the lovely, unspoiled art-village Bargemon.
The daily ride (2 km) to the village is a joy.
The nature is so incredibly beautiful and the village itself is old, has beautiful art galleries and is not spoiled by all kinds of souvenir shops etc.
