In Provence a country house represents a countryside family home.

Consequently, Nicole Houques together with the Côté Bastide name wishes to recall the art of living in the south of France, as well as the beauty of the country houses where a feeling of well-being emerges.
“Our preference for the essential and interior beauty makes us want to take up residence in the land of countryside houses”, maintaining the genuineness of the Côté Bastide products, which are mainly produced in the south of France.

It was in 1990 that Nicole Houques, using her own emotions and personal experiences, created Côté Bastide in order to rediscover the authenticity and the art of living symbolised in the south of France.
In order to express this art of living, she combines the traditional with the contemporary in her range of toiletries, fragrances and house linen products, making it simple, natural and elegant.
Nicole Houques draws her inspiration from her unforgettable childhood memories and her vast travelling experience. The memories reappear so that they may last throughout time.

- The fig tree describes a moment of fullness, under the shade of a tree.
- Amber for the beauty of its warm colour.
- Linen for the love of simple, noble and essential matters.
