Nestled among the olive groves and offering a charming bucolic outlook, the 18th-century Domaine de Valombre provides elegant accommodation for up to ten guests. The villa sits in the heart of Provence, inviting you to explore sleepy villages, grand chateaux, and the region’s exceptional farm-to-table dining scene.

The rolling Provençal countryside awaits. From the villa, guests can cycle along quiet country lanes to the delightful neighbouring villages. Browse little stores selling local olive oils, goat's cheese, and honey, then wander to la place for a bowl of bouillabaisse and a chilled glass of white. The Alpilles Natural Regional Park offers a network of hiking trails for all capabilities with breathtaking views and the opportunity to spot kestrels, eagle owls, and Egyptian vultures. No trip to the South of France would be complete without a sommelier-led tasting at one of the region’s sun-kissed wineries: sample aromatic rosés and fruity reds in the most remarkable setting.

Cultured muted tones, exposed timbers, and contemporary touches conspire to create wonderfully calm and cocooning spaces at Domaine de Valombre. At golden hour, warm apricot light flows through the living room's arched French doors, creating an idyllic spot to relax with a charcuterie board and apéritif. The villa’s handsome olive and dark wood kitchen will fill you with inspiration as you rustle up supper using fresh produce from the local farmer’s market. You’re spoilt for choice with al fresco dining options, including a dining table set beneath the fragrant rose bushes and a cool enclave in the pool house.

Each of the villa’s five ensuite bedrooms is a restful oasis, with earthy hues, pared-back styling, and soul-nourishing views of the manicured gardens and olive groves beyond. Two bedrooms offer a king-size bed, two house a queen-size bed, and the fifth benefits from a decadent super king-size bed. The bathrooms treat guests to a boutique experience, with statement polished granite sinks, limestone and hardwood slabs, and freestanding deep soak tubs.

The splendid grounds immerse you in the Provençal landscape, with picturesque views from the sparkling pool and pretty al fresco lounges. Relish a sense of blissful seclusion as you reconnect with your loved ones at the refined Domaine de Valombre.
