DESCRIPTION OF GUEST HOUSE
Set in sublime scenery of woodland, vineyards and olive groves, right in the heart of France's spectacular "Green Provence", this family run country Guest House invites you to a haven of tranquillity and relaxation amidst lovely natural surroundings. A little piece of paradise, offering a true hideaway from everyday stress and noise.
Enjoy the luxury ambiance of this charming Provencal manor with its 5 spacious bed and breakfast lodgings (ensuite, double bed) and 2 fully equipped one-room self-catering flats, which may sleep up to 4. All is carefully decorated and outfitted with valuable country-stylish teakwood furniture. Wooden ceiling beams, terra cotta-floors and hand waxed pastel-coloured walls create a cosy Mediterranean atmosphere, which will instantly make you feel comfortable. Situated on the first floor, all lodgings offer a splendid view of the natural surroundings.

Bras is a quaint medieval village, ancient command post of the Knights Templar, idyllically nestled between the lushly wooded hills and mountains of "Green Provence". An eldorado for all lovers of nature and authenticity. The surroundings offer many picturesque corners for extensive hikes and walking tours but also a variety of other activities like biking, climbing, horse riding, canoeing, boating, paragliding, tennis, golf, fishing and many more… And not to forget: thanks to its central situation halfway between the Verdon Gorges and the French Riviera, "La Bastide des Templiers" is the perfect base from which to tour Provence and see most of its famous attractions.
Comfort, quality and hospitality of this Guest House is certified "Caractère Provence Verte" and recommended by numerous accommodation guides. Tripadvisor top-rated.
Be advised that this property is not suited for children under 12 years. Its wild character with plunging terraces and age-old drystone walls constitute an accident risk for them, which the owners are not willing to accept.
