The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Bouches-du-Rhone region


Sporting activities It's a great location for touring and leisure; there is tennis in the village, a golf course just on the doorstep of the village, as are the cycling, walking and horse riding paths across the beautiful Alpilles which are practically on the doorstep
Beaches can be found on the Mediterranean coast which is about a 45-55 minute drive away, easily accessible for a morning or afternoon out
Sightseeing is endless. The property is situated in the heart of one of the best the Olive growing regions of Provence - a panorama of Olive Groves with stunning limestone scenery as the backdrop. There are then all the local towns; Avignon, Arles, Aix en Provence, the City of Marseille and the sleepy villages of the Luberon. You also have the vineyards of the Rhone not far away as well as the Carmargue National Park for some authentic nature - spoilt for choice and practically all of the attractions are well under an hour away!
The Aureille area
Local shops can be found at Aureille (2km) or Mouries (3km). Aureille is fairly quiet with just one or two shops but Mouries is a village well serviced with bakers, butchers, grocers, bank and a post office as well as a weekly market, cafes, bars and restaurants.
Local markets are found in nearly all the local villages at least one day a week. There are also some great markets which are a little larger in St Remy de Provence, Arles and Cavaillon, all less than 30 minutes drive away. The nearest supermarket is about 7kms away in St Martin de Crau

Guestbook for Villa St Rocco
Excellent interior, well equipped throughout, and spacious for 4 people. Bathrooms and kitchen particularly good given previous experience of French self catering accommodation. Quiet location (would be difficult to find in the dark!).
