Overview
This attractive traditional country residence enjoys enviable space and privacy only a ten minute walk from the centre of St-Rémy-de-Provence, one of the most picturesque towns in the region.
Enclosed grounds, lined by a variety of mature trees, surround the splendid heated pool with space to lounge under parasols next to the neat olive tree dotted lawn. There are two spacious terraces between pool and house where al fresco diners can choose sunshine or shade to accompany their meal and young people will just love the love the outside space and sports room.
Step inside to relax in sizeable and comfortably furnished rooms with cooling systems on both levels. The interior is tastefully renovated and modernised with white washed walls adjacent to ceiling beams while furnishings and art work are contemporary and stylish with some interesting character pieces.
St-Rémy is located on the plains at the northern edge of Les Alpilles and is the town where Nostrodamus was born and Van Gogh painted Starry Night. Here you can enjoy the charm of a typically Provençal way of life by strolling along the boulevards, exploring restaurants and shops, browsing at the Wednesday morning market or visiting the galleries where resident artists display their work.
There is so much to do in this area of idyllic villages, famous towns, vineyards and glimpses of vibrant summer sunflowers. Nearby Les Baux-de-Provence has charming squares and narrow streets with stunning views across the Crau plain, the Camargue and the city of Arles. Mausanne-les-Alpilles is yet another delightful village and you shouldn’t miss the hill top village of Eygalières, one of the prettiest spots in Provence where a handful of celebrities appreciate peace and privacy.
Take a boat trip on the Rhône in Avignon or stop at the other historic city of Arles as you journey to La Camargue with its wild terrain, beaches, windswept white horses and iconic pink flamingos. There are so many activities to be found here, ranging from riding, trekking and quad biking to jeep tours across this extraordinary landscape.

Location
About the surrounding area of Le Patio Du SoleilThis beautiful house is situated on a quiet residential road only a ten minute walk from the centre of St-Rémy-de-Provence.
You will experience the charm of a typically Provençal way of life in St-Rémy where you can stroll along the boulevards, browse among the stalls of the Wednesday morning market or follow the Van Gogh trail. It’s located on the plains at the northern edge of Les Alpilles and is where Nostrodamus was born, Van Gogh painted Starry Night and many artists now live. The ancient centre has pretty squares, fountains, medieval buildings and cobbled streets as well as plenty of restaurants and shops. Hiring an electric bike is an excellent way to savour the landscapes around St-Rémy or head out on a tour to enjoy a spot of wine tasting.

Nearby Les Baux-de-Provence (11km) has charming squares and narrow streets with stunning views across the Crau plain the Camargue and the city of Arles. Mausanne-les-Alpilles (10km) is yet another delightful village and you shouldn’t miss the small hill top village of Eygalières (12km), one of the prettiest spots in Provence where a handful of resident celebrities appreciate the peace and privacy.

Region
The Provençal way of life is one that’s deeply tempting for anyone who’s been feeling the need to get away from it all. This is a place where the Mediterranean weather turns fields of corn and lavender into picture-perfect backdrops, where you can sip your locally bought wine and enjoy the landscapes before heading out and tackling them head-on with a range of great activities for families, groups of friends and adventurous foodies. Better yet, our range of villas in Provence and chateaux and holiday homes in the Côte d’Azur make the perfect base to explore this enchanting region!
