Self-catering holiday home in Provence with pool & garden

Introduction

Pure France's favourite location in the whole of France!
Superbly placed amongst beautiful countryside, St Rémy is the perfect example of a traditional, unspoilt Provençal town full of winding streets, pavement cafés, cultural events, historic sites and a fair share of the world's famous film stars.

From the colourful town centre with all shops and array of restaurants, it's a 2 min drive or pretty, 15 min walk to the villa.
A lovely stroll for the morning bread or an evening meal.

Alternatively, just a 5 min walk away is a great 'buvette' restaurant, ideal for lunches and alfresco dinners.

The villa sits down a small track; a long private drive leads down to the property. 1,500m² of private grounds including lawn, olive and fruit trees and many Mediterranean plants and flowers.

Centre piece is the 9 x 4m pool with sun terrace and loungers - all south facing.

Overlooking the pool is a charming, shaded dining terrace with table and chairs.

Spacious interior with open plan living / dining room with Wi-Fi internet throughout.
Separate breakfast room opens to the front terrace.

Fully equipped kitchen with washing machine and dishwasher etc.

3 bedrooms to sleep 5. Two WCs and family bathroom.

Superb base from which to discover an almost endless list of nearby sites; St Rémy itself, Arles (and the Van Gogh trail), Avignon, Nimes, Les Baux, Aigues-Mortes, the Camargue national park and the Mediterranean coast at Saintes Maries de la Mer with its fantastic town and beaches.

Map & local information

The property is located 2 min drive or 15 min walk from the centre of St Rémy de Provence, one of the best conserved Roman towns in France.
St Rémy is 20 min south of Avignon and 30 min east of Nimes.

The town has all amenities in abundance. All shops and in particular, a huge choice of traditional restaurants and pavement cafés and bars. Magnificent tree-lined boulevards and winding streets make this one of the prettiest and most sought-after towns in Provence.

Unmissable street market every Wednesday.

The countryside surrounding St Rémy is quite beautiful and typically Provençal; garrigues full of wild herbs and olive trees.

One of France’s premier tourist attractions, Les Baux lies just 10 mins away; an 11th century village built into the rocks.

The Roman town of Arles is also only a 10 min drive. Many Roman and Romanesque monuments are still in use today; the amphitheatre provides the setting for bullfights and concerts, and what remains of the theatre plays host to formal concerts and traditional folk festivities throughout the year. The Cathedral of St Trophime, with its magnificent doorway depicting the Last Judgement carved in stone and its beautiful cloisters, is open to the public for visits and Sunday services.
The necropolis, or Alyscamps, is today a narrow, tree-lined avenue, located just outside the old town.

Many lovely restaurants and pavement cafés. Van Gogh spent two years of his life here, so there are may related tours and souvenirs to be found.

Arles also boasts one of the regions finest markets every Wednesday and Friday. Overflowing with Provençal goodies - fruits and vegetables, lavender products, soaps, olives, flowers, honey... The list is endless and makes the Arles market an event not to be missed!

Also not to be missed is a day out to Avignon to discover the winding streets and lovely Provençal shops. Here you’ll find the wonderful 'Pope's Palace' – the former home of the Pope which really is spectacular. And the infamous 'half-bridge'!

Spectacular, fortified town of Aigues-Mortes 40 min.

Just over an hour to the Mediterranean coast (lovely beaches and town of Saintes Mariès de la Mer).

For wine lovers, this is paradise; domaines and tasting almost on every corner.

The lovely Camargue National Park lies close by. You really will see black bulls, pink flamingos and white horses. Many horse and pony-trekking ranches and great choice of Mediterranean beaches.
