The Clinic was founded in 1965 on an 18th century farm owned by distinguished harvesters in the Fayence countryside. The idea, which was ground-breaking at the time, was to provide those who were suffering with the exceptional natural resources from the site.

Located in the Varois back-country, protected from the wind and in an extremely tranquil region at the edge of the medieval village of Callian, the site benefits from ample sunshine and a very mild climate, making it possible to provide year-round care in the great outdoors.

The five-hectare estate, located near Lac de Saint-Cassien, offers orchards and vegetable gardens from May to September and total immersion in an incredible natural setting.

Upon opening, the then 20-room site was certified as a convalescent home. As a measure of its success, it would undergo several expansions in 1966, 1969, 1971 and again in 1979 to reach a capacity of 72 rooms.
