Villa Vacances

Villa Vacances has been designed in the style of a traditional Provencal Mas and is located close to the center of Eygalières, a very quiet and charming village. Entrance to this recently built property is through a large gate leading to a garden surrounded by olive groves, hedges, and scented trees and plants. Tastefully decorated, and with all modern conveniences, this villa accommodates up to 12 guests. It has five bedrooms, two on the ground floor, three upstairs, each with private shower rooms and lovely views of the Alpilles hills and the village as well as Mont Ventoux. The three double and two twin rooms have been individually decorated in a Provencal style and the whole house is air-conditioned. The living room is comfortably furnished and features a fireplace, a large satellite TV screen, DVD and hi-fi. The kitchen is typically French and well-equipped with a large fridge/freezer, oven and hob, microwave and dishwasher. The kitchen opens onto a covered terrace, where there is a barbecue, and table & chairs. A laundry room provides a washer and dryer. The swimming pool (with security alarm) is set in a lovely, shady setting and has lounge chairs and garden furniture scattered under the trees. Outside lights softly illuminate the whole property in the evenings.

GROUND FLOOR: large living room and dining area, a fully equipped dine-in kitchen. There are 2 bedrooms on this floor. The living room has two sets of French windows opening onto the garden and looking onto the pool. There is a fireplace, two large sofas, some armchairs, as well as a TV, and a stereo system with CD player. The dining area is furnished with an oval dining table seating 12. The open-plan kitchen is separated from the dining room by an eating counter and it is fully equipped (oven, stove, microwave, fridge/freezer, coffee maker, toaster, dishwasher). A window looks onto the garden. Next to the kitchen is a laundry room with a washer & dryer. The two first bedrooms are on the west part of the house. The first double bedroom has a south exposed French window opening onto the garden, and features bedside tables, a chest of drawers, built-in closet and ensuite bathroom with bathtub. The second bedroom is furnished with three single beds and a wardrobe. Two beds can be pushed together to make a queen bed. There is an ensuite bathroom with a double washbasin, a shower stall and a toilet.

FIRST FLOOR: three more bedrooms. The first bedroom to the right is furnished with three single beds with bedside tables, a dresser and a built-in closet (two beds can be pushed together to make a queen bed). There is an ensuite bathroom with shower. The second and third bedrooms are furnished with double beds, a chest of drawers and a wardrobe. Each has an ensuite bathroom with a washbasin, shower stalls and a toilet. Each bedroom on this floor has a window facing south and opening onto the garden with tremendous views on the Alpilles hills, the old Eygalières Village and the Mont Ventoux.

Outside there is a fully-equipped summer kitchen just off the kitchen and the living room, under the large paved and shaded terrace with garden furniture. It is equipped with a BBQ, stove, a fridge and a sink. Guests can also enjoy table tennis, the traditional Petanque court and bicycles that are available for your use. The landscaped garden is planted with trees (olive & palm) and a lawn. The large heated swimming pool is surrounded by lawn. At the rear of the house are enough parking spaces for several cars. There is also a garage for a car. The house is located down the mountain range called "Alpilles" in a priviledged natural and classified area, and less than 5 minutes drive from the historical old village of Eygalières, perched on the rocks. Eygalières is a 10 minutes' drive from the famous St. Remy de Provence and 30 minutes south of the city of Avignon. St. Remy has its own air of quiet chic, elegant shops and a number of restaurants, little squares with ancient fountains, shady cafes and terraces. Within their surroundings, the Alpilles chain of mountains forms both a striking and a harmonious picture. It is also the landscape of famous painters such as Van Gogh, Cézanne and Matisse who came here to capture the extraordinary light and color of the region. It is also rich agricultural area with rolling plains of fruit orchards, olives groves and all variety of Mediterranean vegetables. It is alive with the sound of chirping 'cigales' and the intoxicating aromas of multitude of wild herbs... This area is the ‘Provence of the Rhone’ and has a strong Roman heritage. The famous ruins of Glanum - an archeological site from the first century BC- are nearby. From there it is only a short drive through the hills to Les Baux de Provence, an ancient village perched high on the rocks, once one of the most celebrated and brilliant of the troubadour courts of love in the Middle Ages. The villa is also at the center of the Baux de Provence and Côteaux d'Aix vineyards and not far from Château Neuf du Pape. The closest highway is the A7 (exit Cavaillon) 15 minutes drive away, which goes from Lyon to Marseille with connections for all major cities of the south east of France. The closest train station is in Avignon and is served by the TGV (Train Grande Vitesse, i.e. high speed train) that goes to Paris in 2 hours and 40 minutes. The closest airport is Avignon as well with daily flights to Paris. But most international connections are made through the international airports of Marseille-Marignane or Paris-Charles de Gaulle.
