We have had a wonderful week here in Flayosc. Many thanks for an authentic Provençal experience - we have loved sitting at the table by the window eating croissants and listening to the babble below. We have enjoyed visiting Aups. Moustier Ste. Marie and Cotignac and have also been drawn back to our favourite beaches: Tahiti (St. Tropez) and La Lavanou - the strip of sand above the main beach is especially lovely. Although Frejus and St. Raphael are closer, we would not recommend visiting them.

Had a fantastic week here in Studio Mimosa in Flayosc - great appartment, lovely village. Never would have expected to eat so well. Obviously the fine dining in L'Ostaou (more expensive, but worth it) but the others just as good in their own right (and more easy on the purse!). the surrounding area is amazing, som many places to visit and explore - the highlights (no lowlights!) were: 1. Sillians La Cascade - amazing waterfall, crystal clear water 2. Gorges du Verdon/Lac de Ste. Croix - wonderful scenery, beautiful place to picnic at and swim in. Of the beaches we tried, La Nartelle (to the east of Ste. Maxime) would not recommend - busy & dirty water and L'Elephant (sic), a bit further up the coast towards St. Raphael - much, much nicer - can park your car right at the beach... But really it's all good, we'll be back.

A great 2 weeks in the region, our first time. Flayosc is well situated to go to lots of places. All of the small towns we sweet and lovely, and good restaurants - but the best were in Flayosc.

We had a lovely week here, did lots of walking in the Verdon region, the weather was fantastic all week & the flat is perfectly positioned to go all over the region. One tip, go to the boulangerie furthest down the street, the croissants are great.

This is a really lovely studio in a beautiful location. Flayosc was a great atmosphere, very friendly locals and lots going on. We ate at L'Ostaou once - it was great food (but took 1hr to get a drink - don't go if you're in a hurry or thirsty!) The other bars/restaurants all served good hearty fare. We would Highly recommend driving to the Lac de Ste. Croix for a picnic by a beautiful lake and a swim/pedalo/boat ride. We asso tried to visit the Gorges du Verdon - drove round and saw it in all it's glory but couldn't find where you could pedalo in it - check with locals to find out before you set off, it's a long drive. We are sure to come back to do more exploring.

We loved Staying in Studio Mimosa and making this our home for a week. Excellent location! Charming, shabby chic décor. Wonderful shops, wines, antiques, patisseries & restaurants. Quiet at night. After all the villages we visited, Flayosc was our favourite to come back to at night. Thank-you!

Everything we needed here in Studio Mimosa. Well situated - enjoyed nearly all the cafés & boulangeries & most of the other shops! Very friendly. Also had a good birthday meal at L'Ostaou. If you find yourself in Riez, Le Rempart next to the bell tower does fabulous food. Highlights of visit - the Gorges du Verdon - amazing (& we have both been to the Grand Canyon in US). We also liked Tourtour & many other villages. First visit to Provence - hope it won't be the last. The sunshine & blue sky most days were icing on the cake.

Compact, lively Studio in the heart of a typical provencal village (no tourist shops etc). Wonderful countryside, friendly locals. Each village has it's own character. Highlights were: Gorges du Verdon, Cotignac, Collobrieres & La Garde Freinet. Not forgetting Flayosc! Wonderful choice of restaurants for such a small village. Merci!

We had a marvellous stay at the Studio; enjoyed the local merchants and the fabulous breads, cheeses & wines. We explored from the Gorges du Verdon to the ports along the coast and many of the villages perched in between. One highlight from a local is Sillans-la-Cascade, near Salerns - a 20 minute walk to a delightful waterfall. Merci beaucoup!

The apartment is charming, as is the village - great atmosphere & shops in the village, also restaurants. Le Muy market Thursday ( get there early, closes @ 12.30) & Les Arcs stunning - We'd certainly like to come back since a week is too short!
