Anybody who knows me knows how much I adore resorts — the ceremony the ease gets old. But as a recent trip with a set of beloved pals, I have been dreaming about a different kind of remain: bringing my visitors to sprawling villa where we can laze by the pool and explore the region, then recap our experiences over long, relaxed dinners at the dining table.

Which is why I’m drooling over La Bergerie. Check out this foyer, and that’s just the beginning.

I love the pool for relaxing and swimming daily, but it would also create an occasion space at night decked out with strings of lights and maybe even a plexi covering that turned it.

And here’s another amazing aspect: gardens! That I do is or anniversary vow renewals with this lovely fountain. Perhaps you get the picture?

My favorite part is that this dining table, place on the patio overlooking the stunning scene of this Var. It seats 12 with no problem, and the food is certain to be beautiful, with a gourmet kitchen and private chef to deal with chopping and the shopping.

As our days, I would set up a private driving tour of the towns like hilltop Callian, stopping to choose vintages to relish every 31, for. Working with a lavish villa provider means you receive the best of both worlds: the support of a resort along with the vibe of home.
