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!

A quick drive takes you to charming Saint-Rémy-de-Provence (8km) with its delightful shops, galleries, and the famous Van Gogh trail leading to the Monastery Saint-Paul de Mausole. History buffs can’t miss Glanum’s archaeological site just south of town. Plus, kids will love the playground at Place Joseph Mauron near the tourist office which promises endless fun.
Around a 10-minute drive away, you can feed the animals at L’Arche de Méo farm, which pairs wonderfully with a visit to the expansive wooded grounds of Parc et Château de Saint-Andiol. For something a bit different, Fontvielle is where you’ll discover the Vélorail des Alpilles. Here, you can hop on pedal-powered vehicles and cruise along an old railway track, surrounded by the stunning beauty of Provençal landscapes.
For art lovers, a day trip to Arles (32km) is a must, where you can delve into the life and art of Van Gogh. It’s a historic town with a rich Roman heritage and also serves as the gateway to the Camargue, where even more outdoor adventures await.
Even on the grounds of Le Platane itself, the secure garden provides a safe and picturesque backdrop for outdoor activities, including a sandbox and table tennis, perfect for children to play.
