What an incredible season so far! 😍 We'd like to say a massive thank you to all our guests who have made it such an enjoyable time! I hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have 🙂 And a massive thanks to everyone who left a Trip Advisor review too - bit.ly/3yMKSLJ 😲 We've had an unbelievably busy 2021. In fact, it's been our busiest ever year, which is pretty incredible considering what's happening in the world. We do have availability for activities from Sept onwards if you'd like to pay us a visit and enjoy some awesome activities and soak up some late summer sun! Matt 🤙

In short:![]()
If you've been double-vaccinated at least 14 days before departure date, then you can travel to France without having to quarantine on your arrival in France, or on your return to the UK. You will need to take a PCR test no more than 3 days before travelling, another no more than 3 days before travelling back, and another on day 2 of being back. So 3 tests in total. PCR tests in France are cheap (€15 to €25). PCR tests in UK are around £68 each, for the "fit to fly test" and day 2 return test (using an easyjet discount code).

Fully vaccinated travelers from orange/amber countries will need to arrive with a negative PCR test, taken within the previous 72 hours. If people are not vaccinated from orange list countries, they cannot travel, except for essential reasons. If they are still allowed at this point, they need to arrive with a negative Covid-19 PCR test and quarantine for 7 days (with another test on day 7).![]()

Fully vaccinated travelers from red-list countries can arrive in France but only for essential reasons, must be in possession of a negative PCR Covid-19 test result (taken no more than 48 hours before departure) and quarantine for 7 days, with a negative test to leave self-isolation.

Note: *Travel rules for minors are the same as those that apply to adults who have been vaccinated, whether the minor has been vaccinated or not. e.g. A family of two adults and two children from UK can travel to France as long as the adults are vaccinated. All four family members would need to have a negative PCR test taken up to 72 hours before travel.![]()

I don't think Fred Sirieix was particularly impressed with our choice of wine! 🤣 #prosecco #fredsirieix #firstdates
Channel 4 today @ 4pm. We should feature a little bit in this programme, but it's mainly about the area, St Tropez and surrounds in Cote d'Azur. There should be some stunning scenery, and as expected a trip to Gorges du Verdon - worth a watch for that alone -, and maybe Port Grimaud too? 🙂
We're on the telly box again on Monday 3rd May @ 4pm on Channel 4. Apparently this programme will feature some unseen footgage that was filmed when the TV crew came out in Summer of '18. Also featuring some footage of the wonderful Gorge du Verdon. Worth watching for a glimpse of that alone 🙂
President Emmanuel Macron has announced that holidays to France will be allowed to go ahead from May this year, including visitors from UK, Europe and USA 🙂 Visitors will need to have proof of vaccination or a negative PCR test taken no more than 72-hours before travel. So get booking and have an awesome time away after the débâcle that has been 2020/2021 so far! 🙂 (video in English with French subtitles).![]()
