There is a Michelin star restaurant in St Raphael "La Terrasse" at a 5 minute drive and course several Michelin star restaurants in Mougins and Cannes at a 20-25 minute drive.

We can recommend a very good guide to take guests on treks in the Esterel mountains and who is also a historian and can take guests to local towns and areas of interest.

There is an excellent selection of vineyards in the area including Chateau St. Roseline with good wines and a beautiful chapel with a Chagall original painting. Next door to this there is a fantastic Michelin starred restaurant "Le Relise des Moines" so this works well for lunch or dinner. St Martin vineyard has an interesting tour and wine tasting and the Chateau Cabran has good reviews too.

Frejus, closest local village has several art galleries and a provencal market on Wednesdays and Saturdays
