The village of Mons en Provence

Perched at an altitude of 814 meters in the Var region, Mons is a charming “village of character” overlooking the Pays de Fayence, offering superb panoramic views that have been awarded two stars by the Michelin Green Guide. With its medieval alleyways, fountains, stone houses, and 13th-century church, it charms visitors with its authenticity and tranquility, far from the hustle and bustle of the coast.

Ideally situated between the sea and the mountains, Mons offers easy access to Nice and Saint-Tropez, while allowing visitors to explore the natural treasures of the Var hinterland, such as the Siagnole and Siagne rivers, Mont Lachens, and the Gorges du Verdon. The region offers a wide range of outdoor activities, including hiking, cycling, swimming, golf at Terre Blanche, and even gliding.

In Mons, you immediately feel at peace. The air is fresh, the climate mild, and time seems to slow down. The village exudes an authentic atmosphere, like a scene straight out of a Marcel Pagnol novel, enveloped in the scents of thyme, pine, and lavender—typical of Provence.
