Unique Features

  • · Beautiful white stone interiors showcasing exquisite masonry.

Perched high on a hillside just below Les Baux de Provence and a short drive from Saint Rémy, La Citadelle is a truly unique home in the Alpilles, offering unparalleled panoramic views over the valley. Its rare location, carved into the rocky landscape, provides both seclusion and easy walking access to Les Baux, making it a peaceful retreat away from the summer crowds.

Set amidst several acres of private gardens and land, with direct access to thousands of acres of protected Provençal countryside, the home is perfectly positioned for those seeking pure tranquility within a region of particularly striking natural beauty. The expansive terraces create a "top of the world" sensation, ideal for soaking in the stunning surroundings.

La Citadelle’s interior is just as remarkable, blending seamlessly with the stony cliff to maintain cool temperatures throughout the summer while fostering a harmonious ambiance and deep connection to nature. The ground floor features a spacious open-plan layout with a kitchen, dining area, and living room, all opening onto the terrace that wraps around the house.

A summer kitchen on the terrace invites outdoor cooking and dining. For additional accommodation, an adjacent studio with a kitchenette, sitting area, bedroom, and bathroom is available at an extra cost, making it perfect for teenagers or staff. Please inquire with a villa specialist for further details about booking these additional rooms.
