Perks for the Parents

This elegant family villa, just a few minutes’ walk from the famous village of Mouriès in Provence, features a stunning garden, heated swimming pool, and an outdoor summer kitchen. It sleeps 8 + 1. Kick back and relax in this luxurious, spacious home - there are so many areas to sit, drink, dine, or play, both inside and outside. Lounge by the pool or cool off in the shade under the pergola, while the rest of the family splash in the water or enjoy the lush gardens. There are 2 primary suites designed just for parents, and the outdoor kitchen is furnished with a TV, sound system, and coffee machine, so you can escape the little ones for a quiet morning coffee in the sunshine.

Why Kids Love it

This spacious home is perfect for kids who want to run around or play in the easy 1-storey layout. A crib, high chair, and baby toys can be provided on request. There are also 2 bathtubs to make bath time easy, plus a baby bath for the youngest of guests. The pool can be heated - a must for babies or toddlers learning to swim - and secured with a rigid cover for safety. This area is great for kids who love the outdoors: they can try horseback riding, tree climbing, or mountain biking - ask the hosts for local info or guided tours.

Things to Know

Minimum stay: 7 nights. Tourist tax is not included and should be paid directly to the host on arrival (approximately 4EUR per adult per night, depending on location). Safety notes: 2 of the bedrooms have balcony doors leading directly out to the garden. The whole property is totally fenced and gated, with security cameras. The property has private parking available - car rental is essential in this area. There isn’t any public transport nearby (although you can catch the Eurostar from Avignon, 40 minutes away) but the hosts can recommend a private driver. Sorry - no pets. Air conditioning is available throughout the property.

About the Location

The villa is located just 8 minutes’ walk from the village of Mouriès, in Provence, France. The village is 30 minutes away from Arles. Mouriès is a picturesque village with bakeries, eateries, shops, and 2 parks - the perfect place to enjoy an iced ‘pastis’ at a local café. It’s roughly 1 hour away from Marseille airport and 2 hours from Nice airport. The beautiful beaches along the south coast are just half an hour’s drive, and this area is well known for its world-class vineyards: there are a few vineyards to visit within half an hour’s drive, and Châteauneuf-du-Pap is less than an hour away.

Accommodation Details

This residence has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms over 2 levels. There are 2 primary suites for parents (1 with a kingsize bed; 1 with a queensize bed) which have ensuite bathrooms, and 2 more double bedrooms which share a bathroom. The hosts also offer 1 travel crib. In the living areas, there is a spacious living room, a cozy dining room with a contemporary fireplace, and a fully-equipped kitchen with a large dining table. Most of the house is on the ground floor with 1 bedroom a bathroom on the 2nd floor.

Style Notes

Elegant Provencal. The villa blends the traditional French styles of this stunning region with subtle contemporary and chic updates. It’s bright and light, with each room leading seamlessly to the next to create a relaxing space, perfect for vacations. The beautiful garden is landscaped with fruit trees, herbs, vines, olive trees, Mediterranean plants and a vegetable and fruit garden which guests are welcome to forage from. The bedrooms feature warm color accents and antique furniture, while the living rooms are finished with unique artwork, crafts, and ornaments. We love the deep blue hue of the living room, the rustic exposed wooden beams in the kitchen, and the unique oval-shaped windows in the bedroom and bathroom.

I am in love with Provence. I love the blue of the sky, the heat in Summer, the cold in Winter..the food, the people.. Al the properties I managed have been carefully chosen and all of them are kids friendly. I know my region by heart and I can help you to plan your holidays. For your kids, many activities, potery, art classes, cooking classes, climb tree experiences, fishing, canoeing etc.. For you, parents: Wine tour, Air tour above Provence and Luberon, cooking class or private chef at home, perfume making etc..

Follow the olive trail

This pretty village in the heart of the Alpilles National Park, Provence, is in the country’s premier olive oil producing region and has beautiful trails through vineyards and olive groves to explore. Twenty minutes from Saint Remy and 15 minutes from Les Baux de Provence, it’s nestled in a golden part of Provence with horseback riding, great food and villages made of honey-colored stone to enjoy nearby.

We had an incredible two weeks at this fabulous villa. The inside of the house is spacious, and beautifully decorated with everything you need. It is also air conditioned and so wonderfully cool even when it is very hot outside. The real highlight though is the garden and the pool. We enjoyed rotating our meals between the various outdoor/indoor spaces in between lots of swimming. Our kids absolutely loved it there and we would highly recommend. The only note we would make is that the owners have some very lovely bits of furniture and decor that might cause some stress to parents with very young (but mobile) children. Our 3 and 5 year olds (and not yet crawling baby) were fine though.
