Mas Art et Soleil

Just 2km from the picture-perfect village of Eygalières, Mas Art et Soleil lies quietly in a little hamlet, where cypress trees sway gently in the breeze and the craggy silhouette of Les Alpilles rises in the distance. Once an artist’s studio, this restored Provençal farmhouse is now a welcoming retreat, where natural textures, curated design and beautiful spaces come together in perfect harmony.

Inside, the open-plan kitchen and dining area features original stonework, high beamed ceilings and a large window framing the verdant surroundings. The space is both sophisticated and soulful, ideal for preparing local market fare while sharing stories over long meals. The light-filled living room exudes warmth, with inviting sofas and thoughtful touches that speak to the home’s artistic heritage.

Each of the three double bedrooms is delightful; two are on the ground floor (one adaptable as a twin, the other with air-conditioning) while the air-conditioned master upstairs is a sanctuary of calm with a king-size bed, cool stone shower and Travertine finishes.

The gardens are a Provençal dream, shaded by mature trees. Sunbathe by the long pool, enjoy pétanque on the lawn or sip rosé on the terrace. Al-fresco lunches stretch into starlit dinners in this idyllic setting in southern France.

Just a few minutes away, Eygalières offers a taste of authentic Provence with its shops, Friday market and acclaimed restaurants. From here, you can reach St-Rémy, Les Baux-de-Provence or Arles, each steeped in history and culture, with vines, pine forests and olive groves in between.

Just outside the pretty village of Eygalières (2km), Mas Art et Soleil is in the heart of Provence with lovely views of Les Alpilles Natural Park. Eygalières is one of the prettiest spots in Provence, a small hill-top village with winding lanes, lovely landscapes and an authentic charm. It is no surprise that many A-list celebrities have bought villas here to escape the paparazzi elsewhere. There is a village church, a bakery, butchers, a handful of restaurants and cafes-bars (including the Michelin-starred Maison Haché) plus a wonderful Provençal market on a Friday morning.

This idyllic corner of Provence places you among rolling vineyards, olive groves and some of France’s most celebrated villages and towns. Just 10km away, charming St-Rémy is known for its thriving art scene, with galleries throughout the village and the lively ‘Route des Artistes’ on select summer Sundays. Food lovers will enjoy its excellent restaurants and the bustling Wednesday market.
