This exceptional luxury villa rental in Provence invites you into the timeless beauty of the Alpilles countryside, where rolling lavender fields, ancient olive groves, and cherry orchards frame a traditional Provençal farmhouse of rare distinction. Mas Lavande Rasclaouse Provence sits within expansive private grounds just moments from the captivating village of Eygalières, offering nine guests an immersive experience of southern French living. From the moment you arrive along the tree-canopied driveway, the property reveals itself as a harmonious blend of rustic heritage and refined comfort, designed for those who seek authenticity without sacrificing elegance.

Inside Mas Lavande Rasclaouse Provence

Step through the sun-dappled courtyard and into a world where thick stone walls keep the interiors cool in summer and a grand fireplace warms the dining room during cooler evenings. The generous living room is a place of quiet sophistication, furnished with deep sofas, soft linens, and French doors that swing open to the courtyard, flooding the space with golden Provençal light. A piano stands ready for impromptu evening performances, adding a touch of cultural refinement to the atmosphere. Wi-Fi and a television are available, though you may find the views from the windows far more captivating than any screen.

The dining room centers around a long farmhouse table, perfect for convivial meals shared beneath exposed wooden beams. Adjacent to this, a well-appointed kitchen features a full suite of modern appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, and all the tools needed to prepare feasts inspired by the local markets of Eygalières and Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. A separate library and study offer a peaceful retreat for reading or quiet reflection, lined with books and bathed in soft natural light.

Across the five bedrooms, each room carries its own Provençal character with terracotta floor tiles, hand-plastered walls in warm ochre tones, and antique furnishings sourced from the region. Three well-maintained bathrooms serve the property, and a washing machine ensures practical convenience throughout longer stays. Every detail reflects a considered approach to comfort, from the quality of the bed linens to the careful placement of fresh flowers from the garden.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The grounds of this luxury villa rental in Provence are nothing short of enchanting. A heated swimming pool sits at the heart of the garden, framed by mature olive trees and sun-warmed stone terracing where you can recline on loungers with a glass of local rosé. The pool area enjoys all-day sunshine while maintaining a sense of seclusion within the estate’s generous acreage.

Beyond the pool, a private tennis court invites friendly matches beneath the wide Provençal sky, while a dedicated sauna and spa area provides a sanctuary for post-game relaxation or quiet unwinding after a day exploring the surrounding countryside. The barbecue area is perfectly positioned for al fresco dining, allowing you to grill fresh produce while watching the sun set over the Alpilles hills in shades of amber and violet.

Wander further through the grounds and you will discover cherry orchards heavy with fruit in early summer, rows of fragrant lavender that bloom from June through August, and shaded pathways beneath centuries-old trees. Private parking ensures easy access, while the sense of space and tranquility throughout the estate makes it feel as though you have your own corner of Provence entirely to yourself.
