La Bastide

Escape to the peace and tranquility of the Provence countryside at La Bastide, a gorgeous seven bedroom home situated on a vineyard in the southeast of France. This remarkable home exudes Provencial charm with its rustic stone and wood beam accents and traditional blue shutters. Yet step inside to find all the comforts of a luxurious home with spacious living areas, seven comfortable bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a dreamy modern kitchen and several dining areas indoors and outdoors on the terrace. La Bastide is situated in the beautiful Domaine de l’Amour gated estate with 42 acres of vineyards and gardens. The charming Le Mas property is also nestled in the same estate, and both can be rented together to welcome up to 26 guests. Perfect for large family celebrations! 

The Domaine de l’Amour estate is named after the wine produced from the vineyard, and we know you’ll truly fall in love with this Provence home. Spend time relaxing on the comfy sofas in the large living room with space for everyone. Gather together to prepare family favorites in the fully remodeled kitchen with plenty of countertop space to cook together and then sit down at the adjacent dining area for casual meals. Three steps down from the kitchen is a special dining area located in the original wine cellar. Or open the double French doors from the kitchen to step out to the terrace with a long table set under a wisteria covered pergola.

When it’s time to relax, the seven beautifully appointed and spacious bedrooms offer a quiet respite for a rest. Or soak up the sun at the private infinity saltwater pool with Jacuzzi. The pool is enclosed by trees and hedges on three sides for privacy while the other side opens onto a lovely view of olive trees and vines. Spend leisurely days on the large terrace around the pool or enjoy the fabulous sunsets with a glass of wine produced from grapes grown on the estate!

While the estate is extremely secluded, it’s only a short drive to explore charming medieval villages nearby with markets, shops and tons of French charm. You won’t want to miss Vence and Gourdon, considered among the most beautiful villages in Provence, or explore the village of Grasse, which is famous for its traditional perfume production. Drive south to the coast where Saint-Tropez, Antibes, Nice and the French Riviera awaits!

Please Note:

• A car is essential to make the best of a visit to the Domaine de l’Amour estate. For all its seclusion, it is located only 12 miles from the A8 motorway from which Aix-en-Provence, Gorges du Verdon and Provence's top destinations await.
• This property is located in the same vineyard as Le Mas and can be rented together - excellent for family reunions and celebrations! The two properties are located 400m apart, close enough to walk between them in 2 minutes but not within view or earshot of one another.
