Callas was originally  a sheep rearing area. later olive growing, so has its own Olive mill where growers take their olives for pressing. The origin of Les Micocouliers, was as two sheherds' cottages, each with its own bergerie or barn: you can still see the iron rings to which the sheep were tied at night and the shapes of the big barn doors, which now lead onto the lower outdoor terrace and (new) second bedroom.

The Terraces are populated with Olive trees and wild fig trees and, after heavy rain there is a large waterfall from the stream on the village side of the  property.

Wild boar are common in the area, and although not a particular problem during the day, forage for roots and insects at night and inevitably cause nuisance for gardeners, a simple solution is to fence in with an electric fence the area of your garden. Les Micocouliers is equipped with an electric fence around the main garden, from property entrance to below the pool and with exit gates and automatic timer for the electricity.
