St-Tropez a seaside town
We spent an enjoyable day walking round the town and harbour. It was just over one hours drive from our rented house near Cannes
Saint Tropez is a small seaside town on the beach in the south of France. It has public and private beaches both nude and otherwise.It is an expensive place prices are higher here than further up the coast. We did however splash out on 2 coffee before we left.
The best time to go is April to early June
or September. The town gets very busy in the
peak months
During winter, the weather here can be
miserable St. Tropez faces north, and picks up the cold weather of the mistral.
St Tropez
The town is reached on a narrow coast road which gets blocked with traffic. It can be better to go further up the coast to St Raphael and travel by boat.
The boat leaves every couple of hours and the short journey takes about 50 mins. Try this local map of the area
In the town you will find a chapel that has been
converted to one of the best art galleries in the
country works to be found Matisse's
Corsican Landscape and Vuillard's Two Women by Lamplight.

Chateau De La Messardiere Hotel
The stylish Chateau Hotel de la Messardiere stands
like a fairy tale castle on a hill overlooking the
gulf of Saint-Tropez and the seven beautiful beaches
of Pampelonne.
A Mediterranean style hotel now complements the original chateau. All rooms feature balconies or terraces.

St Tropez
The Rue Sibilli is filled with trendy boutiques and unique items, try the place de Lices, where you can find produce and regional foods as well as clothes and collectables.
Visit the maritime museum, from the upper floors you'll have a great view of the entire peninsula, the gulf, and the Alps.
At night there is a wide choice of places to visit. If you want to eat you will find most of the restaurants in the town.It will also give you a guide to the cost of eating out
On Tuesdays and Saturday morning you can visit the local market.It is held at Place des Lices a small square in the town centre.
St Tropez town and harbour

We stayed in a gite in a small village an hour from the town. This is a good way to live like the locals and enjoy the French lifestyle. It is also good value more so if several of you go together
