Villa Cachée, Eygalières, Alpilles. Sleeps 6

Description

Overview

Looking for a break from big city life? Villa Cachée is a hidden exotic oasis just begging you to indulge in some Zen time.  Idyllically situated in the depths of the Provençal countryside, rejuvenation awaits you in this jungle of mature olive trees, tropical palms, colourful flowers and skin healing Aloe Vera.

A 3 minute walk will take you to the oh-so Provençal village of Eygalières for some authentic culture. Pick up a French stick and some artisanal spreads for a light lunch at your distinctive self-catering sanctuary. If you wish to venture further afield, an invigorating hike or cycle in the Alpilles National Park should do the trick.

Interior

This spa-like villa exudes extreme style with highlights of nature. A cactus here, a tree stump table there and earth tones throughout the house contrast with the sharp edges of contemporary design. At Villa Cachée, the open plan design encourages communal living and with 3 double en-suite rooms, every guest has the privacy they are looking for. For extra discretion, one of the rooms is at the end of the garden, complete with kitchenette. After sunning yourself on the private timber decking of your room, rub away impurities in your very own stand-alone tub before heading downstairs for a tinkle on the baby grand.

Exterior

Chill on the sun lounger, read under the trees, dine al-fresco, depending on where the mood takes you. The soothing gush of the pool fountain and the under-the-trees shower follows you around the outside haven of Villa Caché giving the impression you are living in the tropical rainforest. The owners have gone to great lengths to ensure total privacy as you pad along the stepping stones through this enchanted escape.
