The elegant town of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is home to boutiques, galleries, and restaurants, along with lively summer markets and festivals. And all of that is on the doorstep of this delightful villa, which is only a ten-minute walk from town. Set across the main house and a separate annexe, the rooms offer ample space for a group getaway. Spend your days lounging in the shade of the olive trees, swimming in the pool, and playing on the sports court. Then, after an aperitif on the pretty terrace, it’s time to stroll into Saint Rémy for some fabulous French cuisine at a local eatery. Holiday heaven.
