Cezanne's Basket of Apples

  • 12 guests

  • 6 bedrooms

  • 4 bathrooms

Step into a Cezanne painting at this Provençal home near Aix-en-Provence. Filled with antiques on the inside and ample living space on the outside, this is the perfect home to host a family or group of couples and friends. If you tire of days by the pool, recline in the shade of the towering trees in the garden. Visit the nearby Sainte Victoire Mountain or wander into town to pick something up at one of many local vineyards or markets. Rumour has it that Cezanne’s paintings were inspired by the very lavender-lush roads and the colourful countryside surrounding the property, which has now been declared a Unesco site.

About Provence

Provence’s pastoral landscapes are a French fantasy come true. Peaceful hills humming with cicadas, swathes of olive trees, colourful markets, secluded creeks, and scrublands perfumed with lavender are all evocative of this southern French idyll. It’s little wonder why Cezanne, Van Gogh, and Chagall all felt the pull to immortalise the region in art.
