Framed by the craggy silhouette of Les Alpilles and bathed in the golden light of Provence, La Demi Lune is a private home of rare character and understated luxury. As you pass through its gates, time seems to soften. Cypress trees sway in the breeze, stone walls glow with warmth and the gentle scent of roses and herbs carries across the garden. This is not simply a holiday retreat; it is an invitation to savour life at a slower, more beautiful pace.
Crafted with the elegance of a traditional Provençal mas, La Demi Lune blends rustic materials with refined touches throughout its air-conditioned interiors. Exposed beams and stone floors anchor beautifully styled rooms, while bespoke furnishings and thoughtful decor create a restful atmosphere. Sleeping 10 adults, each of the five main bedrooms offers king-size doubles, plush bedding, TVs and stylish private bathrooms. In addition, a delightful dorm-style bedroom welcomes up to five additional children with its own relaxation space and small bathroom.
At the heart of the property, the generous living space opens onto the terrace and garden, light pouring in from the arched French windows. The fully equipped kitchen is ready for local market hauls (think ripe tomatoes, creamy goat’s cheese and crusty bread) while the outdoor dining area and summer kitchen is ideal for leisurely al-fresco meals as the cicadas sing.
The gardens are a verdant triumph, carefully landscaped yet effortlessly wild. Discover olive trees, native grasses and lavender plants alongside the heated swimming pool, where stone surrounds and sun loungers invite you to while away the afternoon. For the more energetic, a tennis court and air-conditioned gym await, or you may prefer the relaxing hammam. As you explore, listen out for braying donkeys and goats, weave through the labyrinth and climb the raised platform for glorious views of the gardens and distant Alpilles. A shaded pétanque court and several hidden corners for reading or repose complete the outdoor experience, all enclosed within a private, gated estate.
Pick fresh vegetables from the potager, collect eggs from the henhouse and make sure you try the estate’s honey, jam and olive oil. A buffet breakfast is served each morning and daily maid service is included. Additional services can also be arranged such as cookery classes, pilates lessons and massages.
Set just 3km from the enchanting village of Eygalières, La Demi Lune is an ideal base for exploring Provence. The hilltop village, a short drive or bike ride away, is known for its high-end restaurants, Friday morning market and authentic Provençal spirit. From here, explore the storied landscapes of Les Alpilles, with Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Les Baux and Avignon all within easy reach.
For families or groups seeking a refined retreat in the heart of Provence, La Demi Lune is a place where tradition and comfort meet in perfect harmony.
