There's a wine shop where you can buy a glass of wine with a small snack. It's worth stopping by. Plus, there's a lovely outdoor seating area with a view of Pic St. Loup.

Adorable little lake where it's good to have a picnic and swim before getting back on the road!

It’s a shame that the resurgence can only be seen through a fence, there are fences everywhere… Precaution against vandalism?

Cazevieille is a small, characterful village (beautiful stone houses around the town hall), with scattered housing, best known for being the starting point of the trail that leads to the summit of Pic St Loup, which overlooks it. There are few shops apart from a wine bar and an organic bakery that appears to be closing, but it's a welcome stop for hikers and cyclists at the shaded fountain next to St Etienne Church.
