Philip and the entire property were an absolutely perfect experience!! the setting is magical the rose garden the sculptures the freshest of fresh just picked tomatoes herbs figs delicious breakfast items presented beautifully. Philip kept telling us it is our home as well and we made it that way as well. I can’t more highly recommend this beautiful place. We enjoyed st Remy de Provence as well as day trips to Gordes and Roussillon and the camargue. Nothing

We had a room in an old house, which is set in a sprawling country estate a few minutes' drive from the charming small town of St Remy de Provence. There is a decent sized swimming pool, and the room was very pleasant; we were there in a heatwave and the air con in the bedroom was a godsend. Mine host is an enthusiastic and voluble smallholder, chef and artiste; his sculptures litter the grounds and adorn the walls of the house. You will never be presented with a larger or more varied breakfast, with many dishes prepared by monsieur. Visitors from the Anglosphere might be embarrassed at being content with a coffee and a couple of croissants.

Phillipe was an amazing host. He has a stunning property that enchanted us from the moment we arrived. The brunch was delicious, homemade with fruits and veggies from his garden. Fantastic location - so close to St Remy. We hope to return someday. Nothing!

The property was private and gorgeous. Totally quiet yet a convenient location. Many acres of olive and fig trees, beautiful flower gardens, shrubs, flowering vines and a beautiful 300 years already old stone house. Breakfast was so good, I wished I could eat dinner there too.
-
Lovely farm atmosphere and beautiful rooms full of charm. The pool area is beautiful and we enjoyed relaxing there every evening. Amazing rose gardens and fresh organic breakfasts too! We enjoyed everything about the farm and area.

Incredibly peaceful, full of flowers and bees and other insects. Only noise was birdsong. Fantastic passionate host, so generous with his time and passion for his amazing property Loved all of it !!

Breakfast may be original, bread was excellent. But please be careful with hygienic conditions of food. The hotel was totally overpriced. Garden neglected, (sorry, organic is not an excuse), „art“ falling apart, room not cleaned. And all for 300 EUR/night.
-
Authentic bio farm in a quiet location. The garden and pool are peaceful. The host Philippe is welcoming and a great host, the breakfast was generous and healthy. I would have liked to stay longer.

Definitely one of the most unique places we’ve ever stayed. I appreciated the focus on creating a healthy local ecosystem. The host was quite gracious It had great tips for local activities. St Remy and surroundings were great. The paths to get around the property were overgrown and difficult to navigate. WiFi only available in the common room which was a bit musty and run down. The pillows were paper, thin.

Wonderful setting, nice clean rooms. Close to Saint Remy Breakfast was good but not exceptional. A bit overpriced.

Superb

A really unique and special b&b in a rustic setting. The gardens are amazing, thousands of roses, and lots of vegetables that become part of the amazing breakfast with many, many choices of delicious foods, a true “farm to table” experience. Philippe is passionate about food and cooking and serving his guests. It was clear that he wanted us to feel at home, and we did! He is an older guy but has lots of energy and enthusiasm, sails, rides bikes, runs marathons ( including the 2024 Paris Marathon), runs this place with lots of acres and teaches cooking classes. Part of the fun of our visit was getting to know him! This is the opposite of a chain hotel, it’s a b&b run by the owner and thus has much more character. If you like being pampered and fussed over and want everything to be perfect, with everything perfect, then this is not the place for you. But if you like nature, fresh food, people with character, and a unique experience, then you probably will like it as we did. The location is great too, near St. Remy which is in my opinion one of the nicest towns in the area. (We went to Arles and Avignon but felt much more comfortable in St Remy, checking out the little side streets and enjoying the many restaurants and cafes.) Overall, nothing to dislike. One minor inconvenience - we had only one thin regular size pillow per person on our king sized bed. I had allergies and needed to sleep with my head elevated so I improvised. In hindsight, I wish I had said something because I am sure Philippe would have accommodated us.

Phillipe (owner) is a real character. He was friendly, helpful and quirky (which we liked). The property is an eco-farm and has a magnificent rose garden, heaps of fig trees, over 1300 olive trees and a wide range of other fruit trees and vegetable gardens. All teh breakfast items were homemade and/or grown on the farm. The swimming pool was open (it was October) and we enjoyed cooling off each afternoon and having a refreshing dip each mornings. Upon learning that I was a keen runner, Phillipe showed me the track that runs along the water channel at the rear of the property. The channel and track goes all the way into St Remy de Provence (about 3kms) and for many kms in the other direction. It was a much better option than running on the narrow roads.

An amazing weekend in an amazing place! You can't find a better place to stop in Provence than Philippe's farm! We will definitely be back!

Organic farm.

This property is a slice of heaven . It’s so tranquil with many different areas to enjoy nature and peace. Phillipe has planted it with amazing rose and perennial gardens all over the very large farm as well as groves of fruit trees and olive trees not to mention the organic vegetables everywhere. Each room is like an oasis with its own private outdoor area and inside a very comfortable bed with a fabulous shower and large bathroom. The rooms are very quiet since the historic building is made of thick stone. The entire property is like stepping back in time but with all the modern conveniences. Phillipe is such a great host and his friendly attention really made our stay even better. His super healthy fruits and veggie tarts for brunch every morning was a bonus. The salt water pool is great too even in late September when we were there. We will definitely return. Nothing. Loved it all.

The most gorgeous B&B. Very rural quiet setting. Rooms are very tranquil and comfortable. Whole place is exceptional
-
The grounds were beautiful, the pool a lovely place to relax after sightseeing. you can pick fresh figs and other fruit. There is a lovely rose garden. it is so quiet and peaceful and you can have a little picnic on the property’s terrace or on your own balcony. They serve an organic brunch for 20 Europe’s with lentils, hummus, babaganush, eggs, pesto, fresh fruit, two kinds of homemade bread and pies and chocolate sweetened only with figs - no sugar. Philippe himself is a funny, welcoming and jovial host who it is wonderful. nothing. just if your bathroom door squeaks ask Philippe for a little oil for it. He will help you with the smallest problem.

Quiet location but walkable into Saint Remy… & the fig & olive trees of course Didn’t see a wild boar ?

We could not have been happier with our stay here. Phillipe was a warm and generous host, our room with the balcony was cozy, cute, comfortable, quiet and had a great view over the garden. We could easily drive into Saint Remy for dinners and strolls and spent the days exploring Arles, Aix, Avignon and Nimes with time for a dip in the pool in the evenings. Phillips’s care for biological, organic food was appreciated and the whimsical art around the garden was our first introduction to the artistic wealth of this region. Sensational breakfast! We hope to stay again on another trip to Provence!
