Perks for the Parents

This beautiful house just outside Saint Rémy de Provence comes with its own heated swimming pool and a dedicated playroom to keep little ones entertained. It sleeps 8 + 1. Enjoy the beautiful grassy garden while the kids play in the pool, and spend your days sampling local wines and cooking family meals on the barbecue. Make like a local and explore the bustling village atmosphere of Saint Rémy de Provence, marveling at the historic churches, cobbled streets and pretty town squares, or take in some rural scenery in the nearby hiking or biking trails.

Why Kids Love it

This spacious family home has plenty of games and books for children under 10, with a dedicated playroom on the mezzanine floor. Kids of all ages will enjoy splashing the heated pool all day, or a day trip to one of France’s many sandy beaches. It’s a short drive to the local playgrounds, and the nearby village will keep the kids stocked up with French patisserie treats. Younger children will enjoy a day trip to Le Petit Paradis petting zoo just outside Montpelier (1 hour away) and parents of babies and toddlers can take advantage of the host’s baby essentials: a crib, high chair, baby toys and a baby bath can be provided on request.

Things to Know

Minimum stay: 5 nights in low season, September through May; 7 nights during high season, June through August. Tourist tax is not included and should be paid directly to the host on arrival (approximately 4EUR per adult per night, depending on location). The property is safe and secure: there are automatic gates and the garden is fully fenced. There are stair gates to help keep little ones safe. The (heated) swimming pool has an automated cover but it can be accessed directly from the garden and patio so younger children should be supervised when the pool is in use. The house has private parking for up to 4 cars (car hire is recommended to explore the area), as well as air conditioning, dishwasher, washer/dryer, TV, DVD player and WiFi. Sorry - no pets allowed.

About the Location

The residence is located just outside Saint Rémy de Provence in the south of France. It’s 1 hour from Marseille airport by car and 20 minutes from Avignon TGV train station (2.5 hours away from Paris). The bustling village of Saint Rémy de Provence is less than 10 minutes’ drive (or an easy 15 minute cycle ride - there is a shop nearby where they can be rented) and offers a choice of patisseries, restaurants, child-friendly cafes and museums. This rural area is great for hiking and biking - the whole family will enjoy exploring the beautiful Camargue Nature Park and the Ornithological Animal Park of Pont de Gau (both just under an hour away). It’s also around 1 hour from the south coast’s sandy shores, such as Piemanson beach.

Accommodation Details

This residence has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, set over 2 floors. Downstairs, there are 3 bedrooms: 1 with a queensize bed and ensuite bathroom, and 2 further bedrooms each with 2 single beds as well as a bathroom with a shower. The ground floor also has a spacious open plan kitchen/living/dining room, with breakfast bar (seating 2) and dining table (seating 8), as well as a second cozy living room. There’s also a study with 1 double sofabed. Upstairs there is a unique mezzanine floor (used as a play area) and a master bedroom with 1 queensize bed, plus an ensuite bathroom with dressing area. Outside there is a large dining table and barbecue on a patio, and a large grassy garden with swimming pool and outdoor sofas.

Style Notes

This pretty country house is full of charm and period features - the perfect place for a traditional French vacation. The residence contrasts rustic wood textures, natural materials and simple furnishings with more contemporary finishes, such as the sleek modern kitchen and sophisticated bathrooms. Part of the terrace is shaded by an elegant iron structure, adorned with vines, and the outdoor seating areas mean you can relax and enjoy different spots in the beautiful green garden. We love the wooden shutters and original windows, the colorful Indian print bedding, and the stunning exposed ceiling beams in the living area.

Provence is my roots, where I grew up. I love the unique light, the heat in summer, the cosy winters, the food, the people. All the properties I manage have been carefully selected and are kids friendly. I know my region inside out and I can help you plan your holidays. For your kids, many activities, potery, art classes, cooking classes, climb tree experiences, fishing, canoeing etc.. For you, parents: Wine tour, Air tour above Alpilles and Luberon, cooking class or private chef at home, perfume making etc... or just enjoying Provence art de vivre !

Artists, sunshine and good living

Twelve miles south of Avignon, this beautiful Provençal village embodies all that is great about the area; art, good living and sunshine. Vincent Van Gogh lived here for a time; it’s also the birthplace of Nostradamus. Explore the Roman ruins nearby after browsing chocolate shops and playing in rivers beside flower-filled meadows.
