As a refined, creative refuge nestled in the heart of Provence, the Mas offers the ultimate private getaway to host family gatherings, friendly reunions, intimate celebrations, weddings and a relaxation retreats. Entirely private, this exceptional artist's property becomes guests' home from home, for a weekend or longer. Like a personal guide, the owners organise each tailor made stay down to the finest detail.

Just a stone throw from Saint Remy de Provence looking out towards the Alpilles range. Set in 5000m2 of grounds, the 700m2 main Mas is built on several levels, at first glance you see a big 18th century Provençal farmhouse standing majestically amid  the trees and flowers of the garden, where you'll also spot some amusing artworks, with an effusion of colures and mosaics. The style suggests the bohemian life beloved of many artists,

As you enter the Mas the first room you enter is the big living, boasting a magnificent mosaic by Roger Bezombes and comfortable sofas await you, around an imposing fireplace.

Up a few steps, in the centre of the house, is the landing area on your way to the terrace, from here you can see the pantry and the open kitchen, both possessing top quality professional equipment. A few more steps up and the second living area with it’s large window opens onto a terrace overlooking the garden and out towards the Alpilles hills. This room is big enough for the craziest activities, with projector, games table, bar and drinks trolley, bookcases and reception area.

In the rock is a walled dining room, in its bright, mineral decor, guests sit around a big glass table. And with the wine store is carved into the rock!

The 6 bedrooms all in different colures, light rooms are invitingly dreamy, with big beds, silky bed linen and bathrooms steeped in the emblematic scent of Hermès Eau d'Orange Verte.

The Orange suite, on the ground floor, is deliciously spacious, south facing and with a bathroom one could live in. You'll find the Le Corbusier style reading chair perfect for relaxing in the caress of the southern sun. 

The Yellow room bright, spacious suite opening onto its own terrace overlooking the garden and pool. A framed Hermès headscarf with a firework pattern in shades of yellow is accentuated by the light of the rising sun. 

The Purple room boasts an outstanding view of the Alpilles, framed by the century old wisteria with  its huge hanging flowers. An especially peaceful room, symbolising feminine softness, with a  large, immaculate white bathroom.

The Red room, at sunset the view over a landscape of garrigue scrubland seems to catch fire, reddening the entire room.

The Black room, it could have been called the room of secrets. Even the bathroom has its mysteries! Über colourful, in the Christian Lacroix spirit, with a surprising Boucharouite rag rug in black leather on the floor. The small terrace leads directly to the garden.

The Blue room on the top floor, it's the closest to heaven! with sloping attic ceiling, it's ideal for youngsters and has its own lounge corner

There is an office on the first floor landing area is a desk with computer and printer.

Across the garden is the former dovecote (an integral part of any Provençal Mas where, hidden from view at the top of a flight of stone steps, is the massage and beauty care annex.

The garden fully enclosed 5000m2 estate borders the Voie Aurélia, the old Roman road along the north side of the Alpilles range. Your first glimpse of the property comes as the big gate opens. In the foreground, generations of nettle trees, pines and mature oaks. Hidden species create secret places as you stroll around the Provençal terraced garden, with here a herb bed, there a stand of flowering shrubs. Plants grow out between the old stones of the terrace walls; climbing roses and bushes below the walls add graphic effect and wafting scents. Perspectives lead the eye to Land Art works skilfully placed here and there around the garden, or to vistas of the Alpilles beyond. Ideal for a siesta is the old pond with its water lilies, darting goldfish and three water spouting sculptures by Max Crueize.

Below the big house are shady terraces decked out as comfortable lounges.

On one terrace people relax on the grass beside the heated pool. This is the setting for all your holiday fantasies! A swim, a sublime siesta, an evening with drinks by the pool ...barbecues and party nights ... and always that fabulous view of the Alpilles. The pool house boasts a very artsy 1970s oval bar and a summer kitchen you'll become expert at mixing cocktail

And what would Provence be without a pétanque party? The pétanque court is near the pool, a few step further down. 

The location of the Mas is exceptional in a quiet area a 15 minute walking distance to the center of  St Remy-de-Provence, with is a lively charming classical little town capital of the Alpilles, it has it all the amenities, boulangeries, little boutiques, quaint pavement cafes and excellent restaurants, its winding cobbled lanes you will discover the small squares, historic buildings, churches and museums and on Wednesday the colourful weekly market will offer the opportunity to discover local products and handicrafts which is a must to see.
