We could have stayed forever.
My husband and I stayed at this lovely place for four days, but, when we got there, truly wished that it could have been four months. La Cadiere-d'Azur, itself, is especially beautiful, with winding streets, gorgeous historic stonework, and far less tourism than in the neighboring towns and villages. As the pictures indicate, this apartment is pretty much at the top of La Cadiere, looking down on the city and valley. What the pictures can't communicate is what a stunning view this is. My husband and I spent hours on the terrace, looking out at the deep, changing green of the vineyard-covered valley, the foot-hills and mountains beyond, and the bell tower, juste en face, with all of its swallows careening around it at evening.
Horia met us very kindly at the entrance to the village and had us follow her up to the parking area (not far from the apartment itself, but because the village is so antique and twisting, and most of the streets pedestrian-only, there's no way we would have managed without her). The apartment was welcoming, spacious, clean, and full of character. The kitchen was well-provided for cooking the excellent local produce; the bathroom is simple but functional; the bed perfectly comfortable.
Guilhem was an exceptionally responsive and kind host in our correspondence.
In brief, my husband and I both only wished that our stay was longer. The next time we travel in the Var, it certainly will be.
