Properties range from B&Bs in Provençal villages to holiday homes on the Var coast, as well as farmhouses in the Luberon and mountain homes in the southern Alps.
Prices reflect this variety:
The most common amenities are Wi-Fi, free parking, a barbecue and a garden; many houses also have a pool or a hot tub.
The highlights are easy to reach from most properties:
To get around, the Luberon is best explored by bike between vineyards and villages, the Var coast offers coves and coastal paths, and the Verdon can be discovered by canoe or on foot.
