“We spent three weeks in the house just behind the church in La Farlède, a small town some 5 km north of Toulon. The house fitted our family of two adults and two teenagers perfectly. We all had enough space and all necessary shops were at walking distance. We loved staying close to practically everything and live in a genuine french small town without the frenzy of a tourist spot. People are friendly and helpful, although few could speak more than french. Just 20 minutes away you have the beaches of the Mediterranean in Toulon or in the lovely small touristic town of Hyère. We also appreciated the short distance to charming provencal villages and towns in the mountains to the north. In three weeks we toured from Nice to Camargue. It was the first time we exchanged houses, but it will certainly not be the last! Thank you, Corinne and Tim!”

About our home
Notre maison set une maison de village,sur 3 Niveaux. Le village se situe à environ 12 ams de toulon. Les plages à 20 minutes (toulon, hyères, le pradet…) Nous disposons de 3 chambres pouvant accueillir 5 à 6 personnes.
La maison est confortable ; la rue bien que située au coeur du village est peu bruyante et très sympathique.
Au coeur du village, plusieurs parkings sont disponibles.
La farlède est une ville de 6 800 habitants, assez dynamique ; un marché les mardi et samedi matin est proposé sur la place de la mairie. Plusieurs restaurants et supermarchés sont également à proximité.
Our house has 3 levels. In a little town (La Farlède) outside of Toulon behind the church. It is cool in the summer time and we are 15 minutes from the beach. It has 3 bedrooms: one very big with separate bathroom and 2 other smaller. There is a confortable livingroom next to the kitchen (possibility to sleep 2 persons) We often have a drink in front of the house where no cars pass by (too narrow). We like our home and glad to share with someone else who can enjoy the summer near the beach. La Farlède is at the foot of a typical provencal village Sollies Ville, perched on the mountainside, overlooking the valley.

Depuis maintenant 6 ans nous échangeons notre maison et avons ainsi découvert la suède, l Irlande, et en 2014 la Bretagne. Cette formule originale, pratique nous convient parfaitement. Elle nous a permis jusqu ici de faire des rencontres très sympathiques.Tim and Corinne: we have 2 children each. I'm french/american and Corinne is french. We both work in social work. We are both directors of 2 associations working in Toulon and Hyères. We love travelling, eating out, running, watching a good movie or spend time with friends.

Where is it?
Neighbourhood
A proximité : boulangeries, boucher, bar restaurants, épicerie fine.
Pour les sportifs, possibilité de faire du tennis à soleils-pont (tennis club soleils pont) et de faire du footing sur le domaine de la castille (la crau). Au même endroit, une activité d'accrobranche pour petits et grands.
La proximité de plages (et très beaux espaces naturels notamment sur Hyères) permet de s'adonner aux sports aquatiques. Toutefois, le centre var et ses villages vaut aussi le détour (le castellet, sollies-ville…)
Small town with shops (very good butcher) and the "boulanger" near by. A shopping mall not far (5 min walk). Surrounded by people with whom we have good relationships. We are 15 min. from different beaches (Hyères, La londe,..., 10 min from Toulon or big shopping malls or movie theatres. Not far from some very good "caves de vin" and restaurants. Many activities possible during summer: hikes, climbing, bicycle riding, swimming, tennis,...
