Fonscolombe-307-007

Lovers of refined living and history: this 18th-century residence, listed as a Monument Historique, belonged first to the Marquis Boyer de Fonscolombe and then to the Marquis de Saporta, both humanists, physicians and botanists.

Set in theheart of an immense park, where tea is taken under a cedar tree donated by Queen Elizabeth II, who once stayed there, Château de Fonscolombe is the place to live the château life in the Provencal hinterland. Completely refurbished with period furnishings, the château’s successful salons invite you to travel back in time, while enjoying the luxury of a genuine 5-star Relais & Châteaux establishment. A heated outdoor swimming pool and a treatment center are also available. The l’Orangerie restaurant delights gourmets, and bicycles are available to guests. It’s also the ideal starting point for a cultural getaway to discover the Cistercian abbey of Silvacane, Château La Coste (magnificent outdoor contemporary art trail), Aix-en-Provence with Paul Cézanne’s Atelier, the Granet museums or the unmissable Vasarely Foundation.

The calm and elegant atmosphere of a “family home”, the park planted with 180 species of trees and plants and its private chapel.
The swimming pool, built in a former parish priest’s pool, with its stones classified as a historic monument!
