Motorhome area of Le Thoronet, L'Abbaye (Var)

In the Argens valley, Le ThoronetWelcome to the Thoronet In the heart of the Var, between vineyards, wooded hills and Mediterranean landscapes, Le Thoronet is an authentic Provençal village, where one comes to seek calm, the beauty of the landscapes and a certain art of living. Known worldwide for its remarkable 12th century Cistercian Abbey, a masterpiece of stone, light and acoustics, Le Thoronet also has a more intimate charm, that of a village one discovers by taking its time. In the heart of the village, we like to walk along the main street, observe the houses with Provençal facades, then reach the town square, shaded by its plane trees, a real meeting place. Its fountain, the murmur of the water, the terraces and the animation of the beautiful days make up a simple and warm decoration, in the image of Provence that we love. Around the village, nature is omnipresent. Lovers of walking and wide open spaces will be able to take several hiking trails, in the middle of the Mediterranean forests and landscapes of the Var Center. Le Thoronet is also a land of flavors and know-how. Wineries, local products, and artisanal producers invite you to discover a generous and lively Provence. The monastery of Bethlehem, nestled in a preserved environment, is also a unique stop for those seeking peace and serenity. Ideally located between the Mediterranean, the Gorges du Verdon and the characteristic villages of inland Provence, Le Thoronet is a privileged starting point to discover the Var differently. But Le Thoronet is above all a village where you can still take time: the time for a walk, a coffee under the plane trees, a meeting, a tasting or simply a moment of silence facing the ancient stones of the Abbey. Welcome to Le Thoronet, a village where history, nature and the Provençal way of life meet.
