Perched atop the heights of Cap Brun, just a stone’s throw away from Toulon’s glistening marina, Villa Axelle is a modern house set on the French Riviera, offering a one-of-a-kind stay for the most discerning jetsetters.

Tucked away from the crowds that flock to Toulon’s shores in warm months, it’s perfectly positioned to discover the region’s beautiful beaches, bustling nightlife, rich nature and the charm of typical Provencal villages.

The architect-designed house is full of space and natural light due to having a semi-open-plan character, with the angled bay doors also instantly connecting the living room with the terrace. We recommend ‘removing’ the doors completely on warm sunny days to allow the ocean’s cooling breeze to come in as you sink into the plush sofas. The interiors have been tastefully decorated to offer serenity and character, with paintings, patterned rugs and quirky wallpaper. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, each benefiting from an en-suite bathroom, audio system and access to the terrace – inviting you to soak up the warm sun’s rays from the moment you wake up.

Stroll through the landscaped garden and to the splendid infinity pool – framed by a wooden deck; it even has an elevated terrace with sun loungers where you can rest without risking getting splashed by those having too much fun in the pool. Thanks to the abundance of comfy furniture, there are plenty of opportunities for al-fresco dining and peacefully watching the sun slip behind the horizon. Drink your morning coffee on the roof terrace in total solitude, or gather everyone in the garden for a barbecued fish bought at the farmer’s market and caught the same day before heading out for drinks in the city centre.

The city of Toulon is just a 10-minute drive away with lovely terraces, cafés and shops set amongst the pretty winding lanes. Stroll around its historic harbour and have lunch in one of the many restaurants located along the promenade or take a cable car up to Mont Faron for breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape.
As well as pretty villages with weekly markets and brocantes, the French Riviera can be reached within an hour by car, with La Londe-Les-Maures, La Presqu'île de Giens and Plage de Saint-Clair just some of the notable beaches along this coastline.
