The Artist’s Lunch

Tucked down a country lane just 3 kilometres from the centre of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, this house sits within manicured grounds planted with cypress, lavender, and olive trees, with the Alpilles hills forming a quiet backdrop beyond the garden. The outdoor pool stretches a full 25 metres, and when the seasons turn cooler, a year-round heated indoor pool means you're never without a swim. Two garden suites – one beside the pool house, one in a private studio – give larger groups their own breathing room, while inside, a fireplace and a curated art collection make the evenings easy. Les Baux-de-Provence is a twenty-two-minute drive.

Home truths:
* You're about 3km outside Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, down a country road, so you'll need a car to reach the town's shops, markets, and restaurants.
* Two of the seven bedrooms are separate from the main house – one beside the pool house and one in a garden studio – which works well for guests who want their own space, but does mean stepping outside to reach the main living areas.
* While not all bedrooms and bathrooms are photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
* The swimming pool isn't fenced.
