Home description
This exquisite, newly built, colonial style property sit in the countryside, between Fontvieille and Paradou, and within a short drive of Les Baux de Provence, Mausanne and Arles.
The design has been based on an original colonial wooden house, with the rooms opening to large verandas on three sides, furnished with comfortable sitting and dining areas and ceiling fans, giving a wonderfully light and airy ambience. The garden is a delight, filled with many trees, palms and exotic flowers. In the front garden there is a swimming pool (10 x 4m) with sun terrace, furnished with wrought iron sun loungers. Use of a nearby tennis court is also available on request.
All the accommodation is on one level in two buildings, a main house and an adjacent guest house. Wood is predominant throughout with wooden floorboards, panelled walls and shutters on the windows. The rooms have been decorated in subtle beige and cream colours and furnished very tastefully to an extremely high standard. The large, airy living room has high beamed ceilings with ceiling fans and opens on both sides to the eranda. There is air conditioning throughout and mosquito nets on the windows. Further amenities include satellite TV in both the main house and guest house living rooms, DVD and internet access.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Bouches-du-Rhone region
Welcome to the heart of Provence, where you will be able to admire our most beautiful properties from our office. Provence has a magic all of its own, and with its fascinating history, charming villages, its light and countryside of olive groves, fields of lavender and vineyards, the same spell prevails which has captivated artists and writers over the centuries. From the ‘Vaucluse’ department to ‘Les Bouches du Rhône’ one, crossing the ‘Lubéron’ area, we will propose you a range of choices through our magnificent region.
The Vaucluse, bordered by the rivers, Rhône in the west and Durance in the east, is a region of vineyards, lavender, honey, truffles and spectacular mountain scenery. It includes the Luberon Hills, with its picturesque hill villages, such as Ménerbes, Bonnieux and Lourmarin, made famous more recently by Peter Mayles books. We feature some lovely villas in the area, in the countryside, and on the outskirts of the pretty village of Gordes, with spectacular views across the valley. Within an easy drive are the wonderful historic towns of Avignon and Orange with their fascinating Roman and Medieval remains, and famous summer music festivals. A little further to the north are the Dentelles of Montmirail and the impressive Mont Ventoux, visible miles around. The Vaucluse is known also for its fine Côtes du Rhône wines, including Châteauneuf du Pape, Gigondas and Beaumes de Venise.
The south western corner of Provence, the Bouches du Rhône, is what many people consider to be the true and authentic Provence. Still very traditional, this is the land of Van Gogh, Marcel Pagnol and Daudet. To savour the atmosphere of Provence, visit the small towns and villages, such as St Rémy de Provence, Fontvieille, Paradou and Maussane Les Alpilles, with their weekly markets in central squares shaded by plane trees where old men while away the afternoon playing boules. Close by is the spectacularly situated Les Baux de Provence, the remains of a hilltop feudal stronghold, perched on the rocks. We are particularly pleased to welcome you and to offer you an enlarged selection of properties in this beautiful and unspoilt area, both in the central village locations and in the surrounding area.
From our office of Maussane, we are able to offer help and advice on local activities, restaurants and places to visit, to our guests. We are also usually able to arrange for the services of a cook or a babysitter at your property with advance notice.
Should you need further details or have any question, do not hesitate to contact us ; we are at your entire disposal.
