Our guests speak best of the property. They often remember, and it's true, the absolute calm and the huge spaces, terraces and living areas of the estate, much larger than the photos suggest, which is ideal when there are many of you to preserve a certain privacy.
Pétanque games at night and the night lights of the pine forest are also popular, as is the heated pool (on request) in mid-season.

The space
Step into the sun-drenched landscape of Provence with this wonderfully-restored country home. The impressive stone-facade house embodies the rich rural heritage of the region, while modern interiors, amenities and rustic touches equal the best vacation living. Relax by the pool, lawns and towering cypress trees, with airy mountains and the medieval city of Aix-en-Provence just a short drive away.
This former farm property comprises 3 buildings. The sheepfold itself with its inner courtyard and it's 6 bedrooms and the "Petit Mas", a former manor house that has become a guest house with 3 additional bedrooms.
Provence is a renowned region of France, and guests can indulge in its fruits at will from this villa. An internationally renowned golf course, Pont Royal, and excellent wineries are within minutes of the location, while the charming small town of Saint-Cannat is less than 5 minutes drive away, where herbed cheeses, sausages, tapenades and other delicacies await. Venture into the Luberon mountains and its small renowned villages Lourmarin, Ménerbes or Lacoste to the north or discover the famous Calanques National Park or climb Sainte Victoire mount, symbole of the painter Cézanne, to the south, you'll always finish in the city of Aix-en-Provence, architectural jewel of the 17th century, heart and capital of Provence, just 20 minutes away, with a plethora of markets and restaurants offering unique and colorful Provence dishes amongst ancient streets.
