Set in between the hills including the Loube mountain at 836 m and with the Issole river running through it, this village in the centre of the Var region has really kept its authentic charm and ambience. The route into the centre of the village is lined by old plane trees and leads to the St Saviour Church dating from the 15th Century. With strong similarities in architecture to the basilica at St Maximin la Ste Baume, they hold regular concerts here owing to the excellent acoustics. There is also a clocktower with an inscription dating its construction at 1616 with its ornate bell a later addition in 1669. In front of the tower is one of the many fountains in the village - the water is drinkable - dating from 1792. A former olive oil mill has been renovated and is now dedicated to local artists and artisans with exhibitions running from February to December. Examples of traditional 3 and 4 storey village houses abound throughout the narrow streets. The chapel of Notre Dame of the Inspiration is one of the best known buildings in the area set on the top of the hill, it was first the site of a roman enclave, then a feudal castle. It's amphitheatre dominates the plain and welcomes pilgrims on the 8th September. Outside the village, roman remains were found and you can visit a former roman farm/vineyard. At 3 km is the hamlet of Molieres with the Chapel of St Louis perched high above the valley - a successful renovation of a formerly abandoned medieval hamlet. There are also the Laoucian lakes, numerous tributaries and various caves with Neolithic remains to discover in the surrounding area.
La Roquebrussanne is located approximately 20-30 minutes north of Toulon and 15 minutes south of the A8 motorway between junctions 34 and 35 St Maximin la Ste Baume and Brignoles. The nearest airport is 43 km/35 minutes to the south at Toulon-Hyeres with Marseille an hour to the west and Nice or Avignon one and a half hours to the south-east and north-west respectively. The TGV runs to Avignon, Aix-en-Provence and Toulon.

Location in France
The prosperous Var department is located in the most extreme south-easterly point in France and has an unsurpassable climate, except in early spring when the heavy showers arrive.
Toulon is the departmental capital of the Var with a population of over 160,000. It has the biggest harbour in mainland Europe, and France's Mediterranean navy fleet use the city as its base. Toulon is a historic centre in many ways, and its attractive old streets are host to many ancient buildings and hidden historic corners. The town also has a lively cultural scene, the highlight of which is the fantastic local opera company. The hills that look over the town and onto the sea have a number of great houses, villas and apartments.
The city of Toulon was damaged severely during the Second World War giving the centre a very different atmosphere to its neighbours on the coastline.
To the east of the Var you'll find the town of Hyeres, which is a great blend of both Provence and Cote d'Azur culture. There are few other places that offer exotic palm trees on a sun-soaked coast together with a medieval old town and other historical interests - imagine spending your holidays here!
The very famous St-Tropez is a stunning town architecturally and is celebrated for its glamorous lifestyle. It has a population of just 6000 in the low season, but as the temperature increases for the summer months the population explodes!
Further up the coastline and you'll come across the tourist resorts of Frejus and St-Raphael with their stretching sandy beaches and Roman remains. Not to be missed is Port-Grimaud. Built along a network of canals, the city bears a striking resemblance to the Italian city of Venice. The city is very attractive, although the top prize goes to Bargeme, which is widely acknowledged as one of the prettiest villages in the whole of France.
Both EasyJet and GB Airways fly to Toulon from Gatwick. If you'd rather avoid flying, however, you could take a Rail Europe service from London Waterloo all the way to Toulon.
Property prices in the Var remain high thanks to the popularity of the region and the proximity to the Mediterrannean coast. However, for investors, they have the advantage of a strong rental market to make a return on your investment. As expected, properties get slightly cheaper the further inland you delve.
