Mas Gabrielle, St Rémy, Alpilles. Sleeps 8

Description

Overview

Think pristine heated pools, manicured gardens and scents of lavender, Mas Gabrielle can ensure your Provençal escape will be one to remember. Enclosed within century old olive trees, palms, plantanes and oleander; the floral backdrop is like something painted by Monet or Van Gogh.

A short drive from the ancient ruins of Glanum and the cobbled streets of St Rémy-with arty markets-there is plenty to keep your mornings busy. Pack a picnic and cycle into the Alpilles National Park to enjoy idyllic hilly views before returning to your luxury farmhouse with all the trimmings.

Interior

Comfort and style is assured in the elegantly decorated Mas Gabrielle, where you can slip into deep relaxation whatever the weather. With a well-stocked kitchen,ideal for socialising, and a rustic dining room, for cosy evening meals in front of a roaring fire, self-catering has never been so appealing. There are four spacious and classy bedrooms with armchairs to catch up on ‘me time’ in. Meanwhile, glistening modern bathrooms provide all the luxuries one needs after an afternoon hiking in the hills and visiting art museums.

Exterior

The Provençal sun won’t keep guests indoors for long. Floating on the pool without a care in the world as the children run about the vast gardens or enjoying a chilled glass of rosé over a game of Pétanque is what life in the South of France is all about. Take a break from the sun on a lounger under the shade of the olive trees or get preparing the ratatouille in the outdoor kitchen. The feast is shared at the terrace table to the sound of cicadas rubbing their legs in the sunset.
