Additional info
Set in stunning landscaped grounds, Mas Maureau enjoys an enviable location just a stone’s throw from some of Provence’s most enchanting destinations. Set just off the road connecting the charming villages of Eygalières and Mollégès, guests are perfectly placed to explore the beauty, culture and gastronomy of Les Alpilles region and beyond.
A short 3km drive brings you to the characterful streets of Eygalières, where stone houses, café terraces, high-end restaurants and the bustle of the Friday morning market embody the essence of Provençal life. It’s a quintessential village loved by A-list celebrities who have been known to buy houses here to escape the French Riviera paparazzi.
In the other direction lies Mollégès 3km, a traditional village with local shops and cafés, while you can find a good range of supermarkets around a 10 to 15-minute drive away near Plan d’Orgon and Cavaillon, ideal for stocking up on regional produce and essentials.
Meanwhile, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence 11km is a vibrant and historic town brimming with charm. Famed as the place where Vincent van Gogh created some of his most iconic works during his time at the nearby Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum, the town offers art lovers a deeply atmospheric experience. Wander its tree-lined boulevards and cobbled lanes, pausing at shaded squares or browsing boutiques and galleries. A highlight is the Wednesday morning market, a lively affair that fills the town with colourful stalls selling local produce, cheeses, textiles and crafts – a true feast for the senses.
Nature lovers will be drawn to the spectacular Alpilles landscapes, where rocky outcrops, pine forests and vineyard-strewn valleys invite walking, cycling and leisurely drives. Discover neighbouring hilltop villages like Les Baux-de-Provence 20km, one of France’s most beautiful, where ancient castle ruins overlook sweeping vistas of olive groves. Whether hiking the GR6 trail, visiting olive oil mills or joining a wine tasting at a local vineyard, this region offers unforgettable experiences for all seasons.
Further afield, Avignon 25km beckons with its Papal history and lively cultural scene, while the canals and antique markets of L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue 24km make for a delightful day trip. The famed hilltop village of Gordes 30km, with its honey-hued stone buildings and sweeping Luberon views, promises yet another taste of Provençal magic, or venture deeper into the Luberon to discover perched villages, orchards, vines and lavender-scented valleys.
