About the villa

Nestled in lovely gardens edged with mature trees, this very attractive villa is imbued with an air of calm relaxation. Within the fully air-conditioned house, the style is one of effortless elegance. The sitting room, furnished in cream and gold, is open through an archway to a traditional dining room, and is flooded with light from huge double doors, opening on to a sunbathing terrace which overlooks the swimming pool. With terracotta tiled floors and contemporary appliances, the kitchen leads out to a covered al fresco dining area. And a double bedroom at ground level offers privacy and comfort including a private terrace, en suite shower room, and its own kitchenette.

Occupying the upper floor are three further bedrooms, all attractively designed with understated country-house décor.  Bastide des Alpilles is well maintained and superbly placed for local amenities. Barely four minutes from the best bakery in St. Remy, it is within a ten minute stroll of the town’s shops, restaurants and markets, and an easy drive from Avignon, Les Baux and several Michelin-starred restaurants.
