the garden

The garden is one of the centerpieces of the place.

The house is located at the very top of the hamlet of La Coste, the last house in the village before the Caroux massif begins. A true haven of peace, the view is breathtaking over the Col de Beyrtouire and the Roc de l'Homme.

I like to say that this location is at a crossroads, from the chaos of the stream and the forest to the west, to the gentle hills of meadows and orchards to the east, the Caroux massif upstream, the hamlet in downstream.

In this marvelous garden, plants and minerals mingle, olive trees, roses, lavender, banana trees, cacti, flowers, green grass... stone walls and low walls, traditional slate terraces or in wood, a large pergola that protects from the sun or the rain, very comfortable with its teak lounge and dining room, its plancha, ideal space to enjoy the garden at any time of the day.

You will find a small swimming pool, ideal for cooling off and relaxing, surrounded by its large wooden terraces for sunbathing.

Some exotic wood decorations have been brought back from East Timor (ladders, wheels, architectural pieces, rice chest...).

A whole game of lighting and light brings a real magic when night comes...

THE ESSENTIAL RULES

You are in the house where I live the rest of the year. I therefore leave all sorts of decorative objects brought back from my travels there, books in particular on art (my job being a graphic designer) that I will be happy to share with you during your stay.

You are surrounded by nature, with no opposite, but the place is located at the top of the Hameau de La Coste. Which means there are neighbors. Thank you for respecting them.
