In the lower room, the closest to the stream, might be a bit humid. But open windows during the day solve the issue.

This is the second we stay at monsieur Bernard's. It is definitely not just a stay a hotel, it is really like visiting an old friend. "Old school" bed and breakfast, when a host invites you to the breakfast and enjoys spending time in an unobtrusive talk. Location is wonderful for those, who like buildings with history and rural quite. The host, monsieur Bernard, is incredibly welcoming.

This is perfect place to have a rest in the middle of nowhere. Even though the house is just a couple of minutes from the highway it’s calm there. The pool is no so big but we enjoyed a lot of fun there. Bernard is a great host!

Everything was good!

Staying at La haute verrerie is like staying as a warm welcomed friend at an old noble manor. Incredible hospitality of the host, welcoming tea by the fireplace, fresh baguette and croissants right from the oven, marmalade, butter and other sweetest and nicest things for breakfast - that's what expects the guests there. The Ivory room, where we stayed, is equipped with everything one might need for a comfortable and cosy stay. It also has a terrace, so neatly constructed, that once you are there, it seems you are sitting right on the roof and enjoying the picturesque view over the scenery. Even in February it is an eye catcher. I can't imagine what it looks like in Summer. The house has its own history, dating back to 1800-s. If you are interested, monsieur Bernard can tell you very interesting facts about what was there in the old times. The location is exceptional for those who prefers the stillness and quiet of a rural home on one hand, and the proximity of a town with the shopping possibilities on the other. For speed adepts, the Circuit du Var ring is 15 minutes away driving from the place. We are definitely coming back to La haute verrerie for the next track day at Circuit du Var.

While the property had charm, the room did not match the description. The ceilings were so low that even at 5'3", we constantly hit our heads. In early July, the room's heat made relaxation impossible despite having all windows open and a small, inadequate fan running. We come from a country with temperatures over 40°C. The listing failed to mention several crucial details, such as the limited access through a narrow, spiral staircase. This staircase has very small triangular stair treads, coupled with low ceilings inside the staircase, so you need to be very careful not to miss a tread and slip. Additionally, the property photos are not an accurate depiction and make the room look like it has mostly normal ceiling height. There was no door on the bathroom, the farmhouse didn't have a lock on the front door, and we were advised by the owner not to use the lock on the room door. The dining area was occupied by the host's family and could not be used. There was no WiFi, and the room was so uncomfortable that we left after one night. I notified the host the next day, but he complained about my use of the narrow, dark staircase to get luggage. He mentioned his daughter stayed there without issues, but that’s not the same as a paying guest relying on the property listing for accurate information. Essential details should have been disclosed upfront. I paid for four nights but could only stay one. The host offered a partial refund but required in-person collection, which was intimidating for a solo female traveller in a rural foreign country. Worse, the owner has halted communicating with Booking.com to avoid resolving this. As a well-traveled guest, this is the only negative review I’ve given. The experience was distressing and disappointing.

The experience was immensely traumatic. If I could give a 0 I would.

Unfortunately one of the days were walked into the room with sewage coming up through the toilet shower and sink. The host resolved the issue which was a problem with his drains outside but unfortunately didn’t clean the mess up in our room from the sewage and this was left for ourselves to sort. We were provided with three very small thin towels that had to last us all week. No towels were allowed to be washed and rooms were never cleaned.

Breakfast was basic, one croissant and bread. The host was very offended when myself was sick one morning so couldn’t make breakfast. Aswell my partner had to leave for work very early two mornings and this offended the host. The day we were leaving the host followed my friend to her car where he began shouting and screaming at her making her feel very scared and nervous. He was shouting that loud if woke us all up. The reason for his upset was she apperently used to many towels in the week. (2 people staying in the room and they used 4 towels each all week) wifi didn’t work in most rooms and the rooms were very cold.
