To the south west is the Carmargue with its wildlife reserve, famous for flamingoes and wild horses. The cities of Nimes and Arles are also worth a visit, as is St Remy de Provence (home of Nostradamus) and the nearby Les Baux de Provence (ancient mediavel citadel). Just east of Marseille is the old seaside town of Cassis with its lovely Mediterranean coves and nearby cliffs.

Reviews

We really enjoyed our two week stay at Pont Royal Villa. Situated at a very nice vacation resort between Aix en Provence and Avignon, this place was great both for seeing different parts of Bouches-du-Rhone and Vaucluse regions of Provence, and for relaxation at the nice pools nearby. Our kids aged 1.5, 8 and 9 years old also enjoyed our vacation. The villa was well equiped and well kept, and we had very friendly contacts with the owner. I can definately recommend this place for a vacation in Provence! |

The Fynn Family April 2009
Just thought I'd mail to say what a lovely time we had last week.The accommodation was fantastic, surpassing our expectations. The weather was great and we did plenty of sightseeing (our daughter even attempted some swimming but the water was a little chilly!). The information you provided was all really helpful.
Many thanks for everything.

Our stay in Pont Royal was really good. The house was perfect and so was my meeting with Elisabeth.
So for me nothing needs to be improved.
The Davies Family July 2010
We got back from France at the weekend and I just wanted to write and thank you for renting your house at Pont Royale to to us. We had a super week there and enjoyed all the pools, riding, tennis etc - a great location and the weather was superb. Now trying to re-adjust to the UK's grey skies!
