Grimaud – Close To The Village – 5 Bedroom House

Grimaud occupies a privileged position in the Var, set back from the Gulf of Saint-Tropez between the Maures massif and the coast. The medieval hilltop village, with its Romanesque church, ruined castle, and stone lanes, has retained a genuine Provençal character that the surrounding coastline largely lost decades ago. It sits at a remove from the seasonal intensity of Saint-Tropez while remaining fully connected to it, which is precisely what draws buyers who want the peninsula without the compromise.

The village centre has a weekly market, several well-regarded restaurants including Le Coteau Fleuri, and a handful of artisan producers. Port Grimaud, the car-free lagoon development on the waterfront, is five minutes by car and offers direct boat access to Saint-Tropez. The beaches of Saint-Pons and Beauvallon are within a ten-minute drive.

Saint-Tropez is approximately 12 kilometres by road, around 20 minutes outside peak season. Sainte-Maxime, with its ferry crossing to Saint-Tropez, is 15 minutes away. Toulon-Hyères Airport is roughly 60 kilometres west, approximately one hour by car, and handles scheduled and charter services. Nice Côte d’Azur Airport, the primary international hub for the region, is around 100 kilometres east, typically 90 minutes to two hours depending on traffic.
