Home description
A touch of rural Provence with all the modern amenities, this comfortable newly renovated property (one of 2 gites) is part of a working sheep farm. A perfect way to leave any stress behind, and immerse oneself in the peaceful countryside. The added charm of a possible insight into agricultural life in France makes this a holiday location with a difference.
With ancient plane trees bordering the farm and lush green fields reaching into the distance, the Luberon and Alpilles mountains showing their characteristic silhouettes, it is truly a setting which can only be described as distinctively Provencal.
A short distance away is the attractive 16th century village of Alleins with cobbled streets, and narrow alleyways, not only great for sightseeing, but useful for local cafes and shopping.
The two gites have been stylishly converted from a section of the old farm, each with their own front door and garden area where you will find attractive garden furniture to relax on, or eat outside. The interiors which are bright and friendly incorporate many of the original features
The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Bouches-du-Rhone region
Alleins, is 3kms from the farm, the position of this delightful village make it a perfect starting point for excursions into the region. The options are endless from pretty, stone, French hamlets to historic towns such as Aix en Provence and Avignon. Outings to the seaside also can be done within the hour. For the more energetic there's walking, biking, horse riding, boules, tennis, and the fantastic Pont Royal golf course at Mallemort
