Mercure Brignoles Golf de Barbaroux & Spa

The rooms include double-room options and a room designed for four people. Two 25 m² double-room options are called Standard King Room; they differ in their features, with one offering a balcony and garden view. A 25 m² Privilege Room overlooks the pool and has a bath. The larger family room measures 35 m² and combines one extra-large double bed with two single beds.

Air conditioning and a flat-screen TV are among the amenities in the first two categories. The Privilege Room also includes a coffee machine and minibar, while the balcony and garden view set one of the Standard rooms apart. Both of the double rooms described have private bathrooms, with a bath or shower depending on the category. The rooms on offer therefore differ in capacity, size and distinctive features, from a pool view to space designed for families.

The spa and wellness centre brings together several facilities and treatments: a sauna, hammam, steam bath, massages, facials, manicures and pedicures. You can also enjoy a relaxation area, wellness packages and body treatments. Outdoors, the swimming pool, tennis court and terrace offer a range of activities. The golf course is less than 3 km away, and tennis equipment is available.

The restaurant, bar and snack bar offer different dining options; there is also a café on site. Children’s menus and special diet menus are available on request, as is breakfast in your room. The hotel has a 24-hour reception, luggage storage and a shared lounge with a TV. Private parking is available on site, with an electric vehicle charging point and spaces accessible to guests with reduced mobility. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel.

Brignoles lies in the Var hinterland, among wooded hills and villages in Provence. The Barbaroux estate combines a golf course with a natural setting, away from major urban centres. The region suits travellers who want to alternate outdoor activities with heritage visits and dining breaks. Brignoles, a former comital town, adds a town stop to this rural stay.

The Golf de Barbaroux course is close to the hotel. The Caramy Falls, 7 km away, make for an outing amid river and rock scenery. In Brignoles, the Palace of the Counts of Provence and Saint-Sauveur Church offer a glimpse of local heritage, 8 km away. Thoronet Abbey, 9 km away, is a remarkable Cistercian abbey known for its restrained Romanesque architecture. The surrounding villages, including Vins-sur-Caramy and Cabasse, are easier to explore by car; the roads pass through a landscape of hills and vineyards.

To plan a day, you could spend the morning playing golf or going for a walk, then head to Brignoles to visit its old town. Another option is to explore the abbey and nearby villages before returning to enjoy the swimming pool or spa. Spring and autumn often bring pleasant temperatures for outdoor activities and visits. In summer, plan outdoor outings for the cooler hours and leave time for a break by the water. Wine lovers can also discover Var wines at the estates in the region.
