Car: Recommended
Saint-Rémy de Provence is located in the heart of Provence within easy day trips to local villages, Roman antiques and the famed Riviera. Food and wine are exquisite.
This is the land of Van Gogh and Cézanne. Le mas de Pitou is located within walking distance from the famed hospice Saint-Paul de Mausole where Van Gogh recuperated for a year after his stay in Arles.
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2008
About the owner: We are a Franco-American family who traveled and lived all over the world. When we decided to settle down, we looked all over the South of France for a quiet place, yet easily accessible and real interesting. Saint-Rémy de Provence was exactly what we were looking for. The local population is born there, and has a wonderful culture. We are blessed to be able to keep the house in the family as a haven for peace and happiness. We hope everyone who comes and visit enjoys the same.
Why the Owner Chose St-Rémy-de-Provence, France:
It is lovely, not too big, not too small. It is located a 20 minute-drive from the high speed train TGV which takes you directly to Charles De Gaulle international airport, or Paris. One hour from Marseille and not much longer to Nice.
Yet it is so uniquely different, authentic, quiet and the smells of thyme, lavender and rosemary wrap you up in another world of delicious sensations.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
Close enough to walk to town or tourist attractions yet secluded enough from the hustle bustle of town during the tourist season of July-August.
Also, contrary to other towns and villages in Provence, it has kept its original population and character. This is not a made over village for tourists or wealthy retirees from Paris and London.
You can either use the house as a base to visit Provence and the Riviera; even spending a day or two in Paris; or you can stay put, read, swim, walk and bike around town and enjoy the marvellous restaurants or cook after shopping at the local market.
