Rent Villa Alpilles
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Alpille sits amidst the green fields of rural Provence, close to charming historic villages, forests and the Alpilles mountains. Sleeping up to ten guests across five comfortable bedrooms, this home is ideal for those travelling with a group of friends or extended family.
As you approach the house, you will see an authentic farmhouse-style home surrounded by tall oak trees and pretty pergolas. Indoors the house is spread over two levels; downstairs, there is a vast open-plan living and dining room with a feature fireplace, cosy sofas and a dining table for evening meals. You can also find a shelf packed with books and board games in this room. The kitchen is contemporary and has everything you need for preparing family meals and your morning coffee to enjoy on the terrace.
When you wish to retire for the evening, five double bedrooms boast period beams, crisp linen and views over the garden. If any of your party has reduced mobility or just wishes for a little peace and quiet, then the downstairs bedroom is ideal.
On top of being welcoming and decorated to a high standard, the home also offers all of the modern conveniences you could require for a relaxing stay. In some bedrooms, there is a TV and air conditioning, and there is also a handy laundry room.
Outdoors the excellent facilities continue, and on the grounds spanning a hectare, you will find a boules court, tennis court, ping pong table, and a private pool! The garden is a tree-filled oasis with fragrant planting, lawns and plenty of space for dining al-fresco on a balmy evening.
Though the home is rurally located near farmland, you do not need to travel far to reach the nearest village. Eygalières is just 5km away and has a range of shops, cafés, restaurants, and a bustling market every Friday. The village is a picturesque place which enjoys equally beautiful views over the valleys and olive groves which envelop it. In addition to eateries and amenities, Eygalières has a wealth of cultural attractions, including ancient hillside chapels, a 17th-century belltower and a statue of the Virgin Mary, which looks down upon the village. One of the key attractions is the Chappelle Saint Sixte which lies 1km outside the centre. The church, located on a rocky outcrop, was built in the 12th century as part of a pilgrim trail still in use today.
Two of the spacious upstairs bedrooms offer air conditioning.
As the house is located within farmland near a village, we recommend bringing a car to explore more of Provence. There is a car park for guests to use.
