Olive & Ivy

The immense stone walls, grand fireplaces, and historic furnishings in this home remind us more of a chateau than the converted farmhouse it is. Yet one glance at the exteriors and the connection to the Provence landscape is clear – a striking picture window opens onto the landscaped gardens, which feature more than a few picturesque spots for alfresco meals and drinks. Will you gather at the pool house's summer kitchen? Or savour canapes under the trees while playing pétanque? Nearby, traditional Alpilles villages beckon for days out – Eygalières, with its Michelin-starred restaurant and Provençal market, is less than ten minutes away.

Home truths:
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay – there's parking available on the premises.
*Bedroom five is on a mezzanine level with visibility from below, so it lacks privacy. We think it's better suited to children or teens.
*There are steps throughout this home, and some uneven surfaces in the gardens, so it may not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and a high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. Please note that the swimming pool is unfenced.
*One end-of-week clean and a four-hour mid-weekly clean are included. Bed linens are changed weekly.
