"L'Orangerie" at PROVENCE PARADISE is a 17-th century stone cottage, best suited for a couple and or a family with up to two small children. This house sleeps a maximum of 4 people and is part of a cluster of six old, provencal farm houses, with a total capacity for accommodation of up to 37 guests in our "hamlet" at PROVENCE PARADISE.
In L'Orangerie, we offer one queen-size bedroom with toilette and shower, plus an area on the mezzanine level two twin- or one queen-size bed. Those on the mezzanine level share the toilette and shower with the guests staying in the queen-size bedroom on the mainfloor.
A big fireplace is a central focal point in the indoor social area. Then, there is a very functional, modern kitchen, with a family dining table for up to 4 hungry eaters. Just outside, guests enjoy summertime, family life on the large, outdoor covered terrace, with private use of a barbeque, comfortable seating for cocktails and games, plus a mosaic dining table seating for everyone. Very comfortable and very private. Something very special, indeed.
The large, 7x10 metre pool, family jacuzzi (heated year-round) and summer kitchen are just down an old stone stairway from this old cottage, as are the family game areas and sun/shade furniture for guests. L'ORangerie is a very private, family living area, with an old Roman wall and tall shrubs and trees, to assure privacy from the outside.
We rent this authentic, provençal cottage, so full of light, color and history, for week-long periods throughout the year. We offer special, off-season rates, which are very attractive and include "weekend SUNSHINE breaks" and/or séjours of less than a full week. Ask us about availability.
Restoration of this 17-th century property involved two years of hard work, to create full-comfort indoor and outdoor living area which covers about 100 square metres. A true, labor of love!For further details on this property, please see our PROVENCE PARADISE website: www.provenceparadise.com
Property Location:
L'Orangerie" at PROVENCE PARAIDSE is in our restored "hamlet," on a hill just above the old town centre of Saint Remy de Provence. We are well within walking distance of all activities and shops, not more than10 minutes on foot along the old canal path or following the quiet, country road into town.
Saint Remy de Provence is at the centre of activity in this part of southern France: Arles with its Roman ruins, Avignon and the Papal Palace, the Luberon, the beaches of the Mediterranean, ...fields of poppies, lavander in bloom, bull-fights, folk festivals, etc., the list goes on and on. We are literally in the middle of Provence, with mountains, the seashore, museums, provencal markets, cycling and even...cooking classes and wine tasting... within easy access.
Sunshine guaranteed, a warm jacuzzi year-round, huge pool and terraces. Relax and enjoy! Our guests come from all around the world. We speak many languages and are here ready to help you to LOVE PROVENCE...just like we do!
The restoration of a family "hamlet:"
This house is part of a cluster of six old, provencal farm houses, which we have recently completely restored and which are perched on a hill just over St. Remy de Provence. "La Tuilerie" (VRBO#78417),which sleeps 12 people, is close by. "Le Vieil Moulin" and "La Tour de la Girouette" (VRBO# 80586),which sleep 6 and 8 respectively, and most recently "Le Mas de la Pierre Milliare" and "La Bastide des Micocouliers" are all just down the hill...on the other side of small streams which flow through the gardens toward the watermill and cascade to make the wheel turn slowly.
This property has just recently been awarded a "FIVE STAR" classification by the French Tourism Board.
A Bit of History:
Specifically, "L'Orangerie" was built in the early 17th century, originally as part of a much larger fabrique, where we found large ovens and the remains of what was probably a Roman aquaduct, used centuries later as a source of water to be mixed with local clay for the manufacture of roof tiles and bricks. We will show you our "collection" of strange "stuff," unearthed as restored the buildings.
Restoration of this property involved creation of a huge, glass-paneled facade, behind which we have built a unique, full comfort living area. All the modern conveniences our guests would expect from a five-star property are brought together under one tiled roof, including summertime air conditioning!
"L'Orangerie" is a very private, almost intimate living area, with colorful oleander and other tall shrubs and trees, to assure privacy from the outside.
We think we have a unique location and offer very special accommodations and facilities. We live on-site in the hamlet, albeit at a "discreet" distance. Speak many languages; so communication should never be a problem.
We are present and active in further restoration work, as well as in gardening and maintenance of our "hamlet." Ready to help you make your sejour in Provence a positive and memorable one, we invite you to peruse the website listed in this announcement and to contact us soonest, if you have questions.
If we are "complet" (full) at the time you would have liked to come to "L'Orangerie" or to another of our vacation houses, we certainly would welcome a phone call during the time you are in our Region; so we can meet and show you our "project." We know you will return to stay here...many others have!
Thanks for your interest in our "hamlet"---"Au Moulin Entre Deux Mas" (translation: "At the Mill Between Two Old, Provencal Farmhouses.") Hope to see you here one day soon! |
