Having been recently renovated, this 18th century property is a contemporary haven.
Once an olive mill, the old olive trees and original mill can still be found on site, giving a sense of history to this property.

The modern amenities are complemented by the vaulted ceilings, stone walls and antique furnishings, with the welcoming ambience created by the warm colours.
A highlight of this property is one of the master bedrooms, with its four poster bed and copper bathtub, the ultimate relaxation.

Water fountains, lawns and a forest of pine trees fill this French garden.
You can admire the views over the ancient olives as you take a tip in the swimming pool and enjoy an evening meal on the elegant terrace.

A number of boulangeries can be found in the local village, as well as a fish monger, butchers and a number of lovely restaurants.
Some of France’s most beautiful villages are just a short drive away, where you can explore the galleries of Saint Remy, or explore the magnificent cities of Arles and Avignon.

This villa is located in the heart of the Alpilles Natural Regional Park, within walking distance to a characterful village and just a short drive from one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’, Les Baux-de-Provence.

You can wander into the local village in about fifteen minutes or so, where you will find a selection of good places to eat including a great pizzeria as well as a Michelin starred restaurant. There are also some lovely shops such as boulangeries, a butchers and deli and a couple of small grocery stores. You can sample some of the amazing olive oil produced in the village at one of the local presses.

It’s only a 5km drive into Les Baux-de-Provence which enjoys a marvellous setting and is a delightful place to explore. Many visitors come to soak up the ambience in the pretty village, exploring the lovely squares and little lanes or heading up to the fortified château.

There are many other idyllic villages and towns to discover across Les Alpilles including Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, where you can follow the Vincent Van Gogh trail around the town or enjoy the Wednesday morning market and Eygalières, an incredibly picturesque village which is now a bit of a celebrity hot-spot at times with A-listers escaping the paparazzi here.

Just to the north of Les Alpilles, the small city of Avignon is a wonderful day out, not just because of the two UNESCO world heritage sites (Saint Benezet Bridge and the Pope’s Palace) but also due to the great atmosphere around the covered and weekend markets, the brilliant restaurants and great cafes and wine-bars.

Arles is also famous for its Van Gogh connections and is a lovely city to visit for its galleries, museums and restaurants. It is also the gateway to the Camargue, an incredible region about an hours drive away, well-known for its incredible landscapes of land, lagoon and sea with wild horses and pink flamingos.

This region offers endless activities such as horse-riding on the estate as well as nearby, golf within a short drive near Les Baux-de-Provence and beyond and some amazing walking and cycling trails, following routes through lavender fields, vineyards, olive groves and summer meadows.

In July you must try some of the melons from Cavaillon whilst antique lovers mustn’t miss the Sunday market in Isle Sur La Sorgue, also popular for those who love canoeing. The heart of the Luberon region is also waiting to be explored with so many archetypal Provencal villages including Ménerbes, Roussillon and Gordes.
