How does a city
in the country sound?

Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is the perfect compromise between city and countryside. The light and beauty of the place attracted many painters, including Vincent van Gogh. Stroll the shady streets of the historic city centre with its lovely shops and art galleries; experience the Transhumance, St. Eloi or feria festivals; or just enjoy the natural wonders of the Alpilles.

An official city of art and culture, Arles is home to many Roman monuments on the UNESCO World Heritage List, including the city’s amphitheatre, ancient theatre and baths. Located just 20 minutes from your workplace, this liveable city on the banks of the Rhône has many festivals each year, including the world-famous Rencontres d’Arles photography festival.

Do you prefer
the countryside?

With the Alpilles mountains as the backdrop, the charming Provençal villages of Fontvieille, Maussane-les-Alpilles, Mouriès, Aureille and Eygalières are sure to capture your imagination. Each one is surrounded by magnificent landscapes: low garrigue-covered mountains, pine and oak forests, olive groves and lush prairies.

St-Etienne-du-Grès is an option that will appeal to smaller budget. Located between the Alpilles and the Crau Plain, this town offers views of two very different landscapes.
