Provence sublimated

Built in the 19th century, Château des Alpilles embodies the classic elegance of Provence.

The main building, with its white facades and green shutters, stands proudly in the middle of the park, offering a bucolic setting where every detail is meticulously preserved. The estate also includes several restored outbuildings, such as the Chapel and the Cypress House, which add to the charm and diversity of the accommodation on offer.

As soon as you arrive, you’ll be greeted by a driveway lined with imposing trees, leading up to the entrance to the château. This path, which crosses the vast park with its Mediterranean species, immediately immerses you in an atmosphere of tranquillity and discreet luxury.

Bourgeois and comfortable accommodation

Château des Alpilles offers a range of rooms and suites, each decorated with taste and attention to detail.

Each room offers a breathtaking view of the park or the Alpilles, inviting you to contemplate and relax.

For those seeking a more intimate experience, the estate’s outbuildings, such as the Maison du Cyprès, offer equally luxurious accommodation in a more private setting. These suites and flats, decorated in chic Provençal style, are perfect for families or couples seeking absolute tranquillity.

Michelin-starred cuisine in the heart of Provence

Château des Alpilles is also a top gastronomic destination. The château’s restaurant, housed in the former orangery, serves refined Provençal cuisine using local, seasonal produce. Chef Matthias Bettinger has been bringing out the aromas of the south and sublimating the authentic flavours of the region since 1994, offering guests a memorable culinary experience.

Breakfast, served on the terrace or in the château’s dining room, is a veritable feast, with fresh pastries, homemade jams and a selection of regional produce. Every meal at Château des Alpilles is a celebration of the French art of living, where gastronomy goes hand in hand with conviviality and the pleasure of the senses.

The outdoor swimming pool, nestling in the middle of the park, is the ideal place to cool off on a hot summer’s day, while the tennis court offers a sporting activity for the more active.

The estate also boasts a spa, where wellness treatments and massages are offered in soothing surroundings. This sanctuary of relaxation is perfect for unwinding after a day exploring the surrounding area, or simply enjoying a moment of pampering in exceptional surroundings.
