Perks for the Parents
This charming Provencal residence is totally private – located in a fenced, landscaped park of 3000 sq m – with a pool, and is just 3 km from the captivating village of Saint Rémy de Provence. It sleeps up to 10. Swim in the pool, play croquet on the lawn or dine together under the pergola; this stunning property provides quiet and relaxation. The spacious 5-bedrooms would also suit 2 families travelling together, or a vacation with extended family. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need for family feasts with local produce. St Remy has restaurants and cafes, boutiques and art galleries to enjoy together, while the impressive ruined Roman town of Glanum is just down the road.
Why Kids Love it
The residence has plenty of toys and books for children under 10 and is a great family space with a library that features a kids’ play corner. The cable TV has dedicated kids’ channels. The kids’ bedrooms are bright and fully air conditioned. A crib, high chair, baby toys and a baby bath can be provided on request. Children will love to play in the pool, to roam around the grounds and nap in the hammocks in the shade. It’s a short drive from a local playground. There are ice-cream shops in the village and fun to be had walking around the windy streets and discovering boulangeries, artisan chocolates and other delicious goodies.

A car is essential to stay here and to make the most of the area and see the sights.

Style Notes
Provencal chic. This beautiful residence was built around 1850 and has plenty of original features and charm. All bedrooms have views of the lovely garden. The house is laid back with comfortable couches and beds and a library for curling up with a book or playing games as a family. It’s ideal in summer (the pool, al fresco dining) or winter (cozy times around the log fireplace). Original artwork and prints adorn the walls. We love the pretty bedrooms with soft colors, embroidered quilts and French doors to a balcony; the large table in the kitchen that’s great for socializing and eating together; and the private, landscaped garden that ensures peace and quiet.
