Var
Head for Gassin, a hilltop village on the French Riviera, overlooking the Gulf of Saint-Tropez
Perched 200 metres above sea level, Gassin offers one of the most beautiful views on the French Riviera. In its medieval streets, adorned with bougainvillea and jasmine, you can stroll past ancient doorways, stone houses and sun-drenched terraces.
From Place Deï Barri, the view takes in the Mediterranean, the Îles d’Or and the Massif des Maures: a sight you never tire of. So, what are you waiting for? Why not treat yourself to a getaway under the Provençal sun, nestled between the sea and the vineyards ?
The most beautiful view of the Gulf
From the heights, take in the beauty of the Gulf of Saint-Tropez and the sea on the horizon. Here, the sun bathes the Mediterranean landscapes and the village’s heritage in light.

Word of Mouth
In the 1980s, the village of Gassin underwent an urban regeneration project designed by François Spoerry: houses and small blocks of flats blend charmingly into the old village. An award-winning project and a neighbourhood well worth a look!
