Le Tholonet and the wooded hills east of Aix-en-Provence form a Provençal landscape of vineyards, olive groves and limestone hills. The property is set in this countryside, away from the busy streets of the city centre, with Sainte-Victoire Mountain a landmark in the landscape. The area will appeal to travellers looking to combine city visits, walks and breaks by a pool. The surroundings are well suited to trips by car as well as walks in natural areas.

The Bibémus Quarries are a reminder of Paul Cézanne’s connection with the region: the painter worked there and found inspiration for his landscapes. Cézanne’s Cabin and Tholonet Park are also nearby. In Aix, the Musée Granet displays art collections, while Cézanne’s Studio offers a glimpse into the painter’s world. Aix-en-Provence train station is 4.2 km away; Marseille Provence Airport is 23 km away. Free private parking is available on site, making trips into the countryside easier.

For a day out, you can spend the morning exploring the lanes and fountains of Aix, then head for the trails and scenery of Sainte-Victoire. Spring and autumn are pleasant times for walking and visiting the city without the summer heat; in summer, days are warmer and shady gardens offer a welcome break. The markets and squares of Aix let you experience the local pace of life, while the surrounding roads pass through wine estates and Provençal villages.
