Forcalqueiret is a village in the Var hinterland, in the Provençal landscape of Provence Verte. Roads wind through wooded hills, farmland and small towns, where the pace is calmer than on the coast. The nearest village is 1.8 km away; the surrounding area is suited to walks and drives between the towns of central Var. This part of the region appeals to travellers looking to alternate time relaxing in the garden with local discoveries.

Le Castellas, 1.5 km away, is a landmark of local heritage in the village landscape. The area also has green spaces and walking trails. At 8 km, La Celle Abbey offers a chance to discover a Provençal monastic complex linked to the region’s history. The Palace of the Counts of Provence and Saint-Sauveur Church are also in Brignoles, where you can round off your visit with a stroll through the old streets. A car is useful for reaching these different sites and exploring nearby towns.

Spring and autumn are good seasons for hiking and sightseeing, with temperatures generally milder than on summer days. In summer, the pool and outdoor spaces take centre stage during your stay; you can head out early in the morning or in the late afternoon. You can combine a walk nearby with a heritage visit in Brignoles, then return to the garden to enjoy the peace of the Var countryside.
