We will be happy to take guests on wine-tours to visit some of the hundreds of vine-yards in the region. Routes include Les Baux de Provence- nearest is St Berthe- a few minutes drive away, Aix de Provence- again nearest only 15 minutes, Chateau Neuf du Pape- 45 minutes away but you will be able to sample some of the finest wines in the world, Costieres de Nimes, Faugeres and St Chinian, to name but a few. 2 weeks is not long enough to visit all of the vine-yards, and your liver will probably give way first!
Art, sculpture and Roman History: Why not combine your stay at Villa La Pinede with some painting or sculpture. There is even a heated pool there as well to allow relaxation and inspiration during your painting.
The area is full of well-preserved Roman remains including amphitheaters at nearby Arles, Nimes and Orange with the ancient city of Glanum a few minutes drive away- the 3rd largest Roman site in the world.
La Pinede swimming pool and other sports nearby: The 14x5 meter solar-heated pool has a Californian beach entry, so no awkward steps or ladders to negotiate. There is an electric pool cover providing total security of the pool when not in use. We do not add chlorine for purification of the water, so no nasty chlorine irritated eyes! Pool temperature usually 25 deg C plus from mid- April to end of October- reaching 30 deg C+ in July/August.
Maussane has its own golf-course 2 minutes drive from the villa with another ar Mouries just 10 minutes away. Plenty of cycling and walking routes in the Alpilles- now a National park.
Close to uncrowded and unspoilt Camargue beaches - naturist ones as well.
We have some family weeks when children over 5 are very welcome but most weeks are adult-only with some weeks clothing optional around and in the pool. Please specify your preferred option before booking.
Other Activities:
Walking in the Alpilles National Park right by the villa. Wine and art/historic tours with transport. Golf 2 km away
