About this property

Gorgeous Gigaro Hillside Beach house nr St Tropez-Beautiful views. Walk to beach

A Gorgeous hillside house with sea views from the garden and balcony and views of the surrounding hills including Cap Lardier.

A chilled bottle of Champagne or Rose on your arrival!

This lovely semi detached house (private entrance and none of the private outside area is shared) includes a private sunny terrace & gardens on three sides of the house. It also has beautiful sea views from the garden and the upstairs balcony across the valley to the Mediterranean. On one side it is woodland & completely secluded.

Bed linen/Towels/Beach towels/Shampoo, Conditioner & Shower Gel are all included.

Amazing STARLINK WIFI

We don’t accept pets.

Free Parking close by (25m) and always space.

High enough in the hills for a breeze even in summer. Situated to the West of the St Tropez Peninsula, just 10km from the heart of St Tropez, La Croix Valmer has a wonderful relaxed atmosphere.

3 minutes by car to the beautiful local beach of Gigaro and superb water front restaurants Marius a La Plage and La Couleurs Jardin, or a 18 ( depending on how speedy you are !) minute walk across the vineyard. The house is 7 minutes by car to the local village of Croix Valmer.

In La Croix Valmer you will be able to go to the provencal market on Sunday, enjoy a meal in one of the many local restaurants or enjoy a glass of rosé on one of the terraces.

The famous Lily of the Valley hotel is 7/8 minutes by car and the beach club & restaurant & Sailing club even closer.

A few minutes drive will take you to the other lovely sandy beaches of Bouillabaisse and Heraclee with its shaded beachside restaurants serving excellent fresh seafood and locally produced white & rose wines. We have a great restaurant list should you need it and a 'Days Out' Guide also - please ask.

All around are miles and miles of vineyards and lush parasol pine forests, wonderful outdoors with fantastic countryside and spectacular walks to Cap Lardier along the coast and through the forest.
There are over 220 hectares of nature reserves in addition to the many pretty beaches near Gigaro, Sylvabelle, Vergeron and Heraclee. The area is a haven of tranquillity on the Mediterranean while being only a few miles away from the trendy beaches of Pampelonne with the famous beach clubs like Club 55 or Nikki Beach.

What Kate loves ..

An unspoilt, very special little paradise
Just a 18 minute walk to superb beaches, restaurants and shops
It's just beside the preserved Cap Lardier national park, reputed to have the most beautiful coastal walk in France from Gigaro to Cap Taillat to Pampelonne - Come and see for yourself !

No main roads

Only 20 minutes by back road to St. Tropez

Facilities near by:-

Within Croix Valmer you have two great bakers, two amazing butchers, Beauty & Massage centres, Jazz Bar, fab restaurants and SPAR & U supermarkets, for all your needs and short drive to St Tropez for more life if you need it!

A Golf and Country Club is 20 minutes away

Beach Restaurants with sea views and great seafood, child friendly.

Sailing & boat/pedelo rental available on Gigaro beach.

Skiing in Isola 2000 is 3-4 hours drive from Croix Valmer.

St Tropez Polo club is also 20 minutes away and has a great bar/restaurant.

Great for peace and quiet or close to St Tropez for nightlife and great restaurants - It is the perfect place to stay!

All organic (BIO) cleaning and washing products used.

Sheets, Towels, Beach towels & Shower products included.

Gas BBQ Available

We normally ask for three days notice as a minimum but if we might be able to do the next day if the house is available so always worth enquiring !

Who would you recommend to stay?
It is a great place to rent as a family, as a couple, with friends or simply alone!

Holiday home in a quiet, green area
The house was neat and clean and nicely decorated. It was nice that there were beach towels. The landlord responded quickly. We had a heat wave and the house stayed quite warm at night. Great house with beautiful views.

Beautiful area of France
We had a perfect time, thank you for being so accommodating. The house is beautiful and the photos do not give it justice. It's perfect for families. The area is lovely and you can walk to the beach. There are some amazing restaurants at the beach. We loved it and will be back next year, thanks again.

Gigaro
The house was in a lovely position on the hill above Gigaro coast surrounded by greenery and with sea view in the distance. We did walk down the hill a couple of times but got lazy in the end and drove, it was a quick to drive to the Spa bakery in the mornings and there are lots of beaches to access. Kitchen was well equipped and sofas comfy for lounging and looking out at the view. The beach bars with sun beds have gone upmarket since we were last here, a bit too much for our taste in the case of le Brigantine (ex little rustic Pepé le Pirate) but Heraclée (la Cabane) we still liked. Lovely couple of weeks.

Relax!
Wir haben 2 Wochen in Kate's Strandhaus verbracht. Dieses Häuschen hat alles was zu einem erholsamen Urlaub beiträgt. Angefangen bei der geschmackvollen, heimeligen Atmosphäre, die durch Bücher, Bilder und bequemen Möbeln ergänzt und durch den Willkommensgruss, eine Flasche Champagner, eine persönliche Note bekommt. Die Kommunikation mit Kate war angenehm, umgehend und bei Problemen immer lösungsorientiert und wertschätzend. Die Lage des Hauses ist wunderschön - Ausblick von der Terrasse auf Pinien und Meeresrauschen Einkauf kann im Spar in etwa 15 Minuten zu Fuss erreicht werden. Strand und Gastronomie ebenso. Empfehlenswert ist der Weg zum Kap Lardier und natürlich die gesamte Cote Azur. Wir freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Aufenthalt bei Kate.

Bon séjour
Maison très bien équipée et joliment décorée. L'extérieur est spacieux et agréable, orienté est, ce qui permet d'en profiter pleinement dès la fin d'après-midi lorsque le soleil a basculé de l'autre côté. La chaleur est en effet torride au mois d'août et l'absence de climatisation s'est fait durement sentir. Deux points importants manquent de précision sur l'annonce : (i) la maison est mitoyenne avec une autre, la terrasse de l'autre dominant celle de la maison (avec une petite haie entre les deux toutefois), nous avons eu la chance de n'avoir que peu de voisins pendant notre séjour, mais ça aurait pu être un point très négatif, et (ii) la maison est vraiment dans le haut de Gigaro et il faut au minimum 20 mn de marche soutenue pour atteindre la plage, en aucun cas 10 mn comme il est mentionné dans l'annonce ! Enfin, la deuxième chambre gagnerait à être équipée de 2 lits simples plutôt qu'un lit double pour accueillir des familles, pas moyen de faire dormir deux ados ensemble par une telle chaleur, l'un d'eux a fini sur le canapé... Bref, nous avons globalement passé un bon séjour, mais nous estimons que le prix est élevé compte tenu de l'absence de climatisation et de la distance à la plage. Kate a été une hôte très agréable et réactive. Nous avons apprécié la remise accordée du fait de la présence d'une grue de construction juste sous la maison à cette période (aucuns travaux en été, juste la vue gâchée).

Wir haben uns von Anfang an sehr wohl gefühlt und können dieses schöne Haus nur empfehlen. Für eine Familie mit 2 Erw und 2 Kindern perfekt. Für 4 Erw ev zu klein, da nur ein Bad. Wir waren zu zweit und würde gerne wieder mal kommen.

Wonderful fall vacation with family
We just spent a wonderful week in Kate's vacation home, after having made a last minute decision to head to St. Tropez region for our fall break. Kate was wonderful in responding to our short-term booking request and getting the place in a great shape for our stay. As we've been to the area before, we like the neighborhood and the beach access nearby. All in all, the place is wonderful for a family vacation with small children, relaxing, quite and just perfect. thank you so much!

Great stay in La Croix at Kate's - perfect for 2 couples
We have really enjoyed our stay at Kate's place. She was really responsive on all my messages, despite of time difference between us (I live in USA). Our arrival was smooth and adjusted to our needs. Whole place is proper, well equipped and as described. We were able to make eggs for breakfast and we used grill for 2 dinners. The view from balcony is amazing. Neighborhood is really nice and rather quite. Closeness to the beach and restaurants there allows you to walk there if you want nightlife, but keep your privacy if you want to stay and chill on the terrace. Breakfast outside was great beginning of the day. Downsides - lack of the AC in bedrooms might keep you awake at nigh (if, like my American husband, you are used to it). We used provided fans and left windows opened. It helped. House has problems with ants, so make sure you have food out only a moment when you are starting to eat. Some ants were walking on sofas downstairs, bedrooms were clean. An advise - we used grill and had good time eating our dinner from it. Just remember not to use it your last day - it is required to clean it on your own and we were rushing with it in the morning (as grill during use gets greasy and difficult to clean quickly). Maybe Kate can add that to the cleaning fees or the additional fee you/we pay for usage of the grill anyway.

About the host

Hosted by Kate Hill

Host profile image
London based English speaking family with local English/French speaking housekeepers . We are a family who have been in this area for many years on vacation and our parents & grandparents before us. It is our home rather than a rental and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

The tranquillity of the house with a 18 minute (approx- depending how fast you walk!) walk to one of the most gorgeous beaches in the South of France, 7 minutes to local village for all shopping needs and lastly 15-18 minutes by car from the vibrant St Tropez, provides the perfect mix.

What makes this property unique

Absolutely gorgeous position in the area: 1) close enough to walk to the lovely beach, great restaurants and well equipped beach supermarket. Just high enough on the hill to get some breeze in August! 2) Just being south of the centre of Saint Tropez, there is never much traffic driving in the back roads (15-20mins). Walking distance to the new Lily of the Valley beach club & Hotel
