About La Fontaine de Maussane

La Fontaine de Maussane is a beautifully restored Maison de Maître of 600m2 dating from the early 18th century. It is set in a huge French garden with a vast heated pool.

Originally, the property was an oil mill built in 1738 on a field of more than 300 olive trees at the foot of the Massif des Alpilles. Over the generations, the property has become a luxury residence with gardens built around large plane trees, basins and fountains, imposing reception rooms on both the ground and first floors and 8 large bedrooms that can comfortably accommodate up to 16 people in an exceptional setting and style.

The decoration of the property is dominated by warm hues reminiscent of earth and stone. The owners have also created a vegetable garden where everyone can pick their vegetables at will and a henhouse to have fresh eggs every morning...A real luxury these days.

Location and Map

This marker is for indication purpose only

Les Alpilles are a small rocky range of hills in Provence, which stretch from the Rhone to the Durance rivers. The peaks of which are an imposing mix of bare limestone and scrub or garrigue, whilst the lower slopes and surrounding countryside are rich in olive groves, vineyards, cypress, pine, almond trees and sunflowers.

Above all else, what is particularly striking is the magical quality and luminescence of the light, which has been the inspiration of a host of painters, the most famous of which, being Vincent Van Gogh.

The region boasts some of Provence`s most famous tourist sites, such as the Roman ruins of Glanum, the medieval hilltop village of Les Baux-de-Provence and the stylish little town of Saint-Remy-de-Provence, which was the birthplace and home of Nostradamus.

Several pretty and typical Provencal villages encircle Les Alpilles; Maussane, Mouries, Fontvieille, Eygalieres, Le Paradou and Maillane. With stone built houses, clustered around Romanesque churches, open squares shaded by plane trees, fountains, charming cafes, restaurants and weekly markets -all have their own distinct character and charm.

Whilst further afield and yet all within easy striking distance, are, the papal walled town of Avignon, the Roman town of Arles, the spectacular Camargue, vibrant Aix-en-Provence and France`s second city the port of Marseille.
