Located along the picturesque route to the Sainte Sixte Chapel, just outside Eygalières, the property offers an exceptional setting with breathtaking views of the Alpilles.
Eygalières, a quaint Provençal village, invites you to explore its narrow streets, historic churches, and lively weekly market brimming with local produce and artisan goods. Nearby, the Alpilles Regional Natural Park offers a paradise for nature lovers, with hiking, cycling, and rock climbing amidst olive groves and limestone peaks.
