La Bastide Saint-Antoine

From the top of this estate that stretches over 10 hectares, carved into undulating terraces, the valley extends out to the sea. An extraordinary environment that the entire team of the Bastide Saint-Antoine work hard to preserve…

To the sound of the cicadas; fig, lemon and some 60 citrus varieties mingle in an explosion of aroma and color. Their delicious fruit are served to the guests.
