Located on a vineyard at the foot of the Mont Ste-Victoire, these accommodations offer a wonderful opportunity to stay in a building with old world charm on the grounds of a gold medal-winning winery.   Appealing to the wine enthusiast and novice alike, this property provides a rich experience in Provençal wine culture as well as a charming vacation retreat.

The apartment is located in one wing of a stone farmhouse that once served as a stagecoach inn. The house retains its historic roots with vintage tile floors and exposed wood beam ceilings throughout. Guests have the use of a private 16 x 16 ft. saltwater filled swimming pool.

The apartment, approx. 750 sq. ft., is on the third floor. Dense stone walls eliminate the need for air conditioning. It has a comfortably appointed living room with tasteful antiques, a sofa bed, and a TV.

In the tiled bathroom there is a tub with a handheld shower, a separate tiled shower stall, a pedestal sink and a toilet.

General Location Map



Anny and Jacques were wonderful hosts. They made us feel so at home in our apartment. They greeted us very warmly, even though it was late when we arrived. Anny supplied a few food staples, such as milk, bread, butter, even coffee and wine. This was so helpful since we were travelling with our 15-month old baby who drank extraordinary amounts of milk while we were in Europe. The apartment and chateau were more rustic than they seemed in the photographs, but it was still charming. The location was good. We were fairly close to the autoroute which made it a good base for day trips throughout Provence. We shopped for groceries in Rousset and Trets. Anny and Jacques hosted us for an apertif the night before we departed, which was lovely.   Staying in an apartment like this was absolutely perfect for our small family, with two girls age four and 15 months. We were able to eat breakfast and dinner each day in the apartment and packed picnics for lunch. Thank you!
