Have you ever traveled with Le Collectionist?
Yes, we often stay at Villa de la Palme in Gassin, near Saint-Tropez! We love this house, it's such a special place with one of the best views of the Mediterranean you can imagine. We have a weakness for the colours of the façade, its yellow walls and its blue shutters perfectly capture the South of France.
