What La Bastide de Correns does

La Bastide de Correns operates a single vacation rental property on a 1.3-hectare private estate in Correns, Var, in the Provence Verte region of southeastern France. The offering comprises a main Provençal villa (two bedrooms, two bathrooms, living and dining areas, a kitchen, and two terraces) complemented by two independent suites — Suite Libellule (a double-bedroom suite) and Suite Familiale Esparron (a family suite with one double and two single beds) — that can be added modularly to host groups of up to ten guests on an exclusive-use basis. Property amenities include a private 12×5 metre heated swimming pool (available April through September), gardens with native oak, cedar, fig, olive, and apple trees, wild lavender, rosemary and thyme, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, a wood-burning stove, and a fully equipped kitchen. The business is owner-operated by Christophe, who is identified as the proprietor and the primary point of contact for guest relations.

The revenue model is short-term villa rental with sharply seasonal pricing. Off-season rates (November to March) start at €200 per night or €1,400 per week; shoulder seasons (April–June, September–October) run €300–400 per night and €1,750–2,450 per week; peak summer commands €400–450 per night and €2,800–€3,150 per week. A 40% discount applies to monthly rentals, additional guests beyond four incur a €25 per-night surcharge, and a €1,000 security deposit pre-authorisation is held one day before arrival, with a 50% booking deposit and balance due 90 days before arrival. Distribution is exclusively through the property's own website and the Lodgify booking platform; the property is not listed on major OTAs such as Airbnb or Booking.com based on available evidence.

The target customer base consists of families and friend groups seeking private accommodations in a nature-based Provençal setting, with secondary appeal to couples seeking romantic getaways. The property markets through its website (content covering activities, vineyards, and the Correns organic-village narrative) and Lodgify, supplemented by reciprocal referrals to local partners including the K-Noe kayaking operator and the Vignerons de Correns organic-wine cooperative. The business is privately held with no evidence of external institutional investment or parent-company ownership, was founded in 2022, operates with 1–10 employees, and is registered at 1087 Vieux chemin de Cotignac, 83570 Correns, France.

Broad incumbents
