A true and intimate Provençal way of life to be experienced by epicurean families
Anne-Sophie and Clément embarked on an challenging venture in 2022, taking over the estate to revive abandoned olive grove to craft their own olive oil and to fashion a distinctive home within the Alpilles. The villa, originally an old farmhouse dating back to the 1960s, had already underwent a complete renovation in 2016 by its previous owners. Imagine a 300m2 refuge in a sprawling 240-hectare of olive trees and green oaks, offering a breathtaking setting. This spacious home boasts 5 bedrooms including 2 master suites, all designed for ultimate comfort. Additionally, an adjacent annex provides two extra bedrooms, accommodating up to 4 more guests for a memorable getaway. Inside, a dedicated room equipped with a projector invites movie nights, while a game room features various wooden games for the children’s entertainment.
Sophisticated Simplicity
The meticulous refurbishment preserved its historic charm while notably enhancing comfort, particularly with hotel-quality bedding. Embellished with a curated interior, the house showcases an exceptional attention to detail and a dedication to premium materials. Wood plays a significant role in the house, complementing the marble to create a polished finish. The use of color accents in the bedrooms, as well as the vibrant tiles in the bathrooms, adds character. Among its standout features are a grand fireplace in the living room, a master bedroom adorned with large glass windows framing picturesque garden views, and the pièce de résistance: panoramic vistas of the olive fields.

A Provençal Art de Vivre
During the year, there’s a particular time to savor the essence of Villa Poésie: October and November, the harvest season, when tenants have the chance to participate and uncover the craftsmanship of the owners and their team. Alternatively, summer invites guests to indulge in al fresco dinners beneath the stars, nestled amidst the olive trees. The surrounding landscape offers a harmonious blend between the rocks adorning the north-facing slopes at the foot of the Alpilles Massif and the pebbles gracing the southern slopes in the heart of Crau’s plain. This unique fusion creates a biodiverse and harmonious environment: Bonelli’s eagles soar over the region while hares, foxes, and partridges coexist in this protected land. Completing this picturesque setting is the house’s exterior, immersing you in the local lifestyle of the house with its expansive blossoming terrace, a Provençal-style boule court and the masterpiece: a overflowing pool that overlooks the olive fields.
