Carces and the Chateau des Vignes \u2013 Provence at its prettiest.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

With narrow streets, stone arches, vaulted passages, ancient houses, old olive oil mills, colourful wall murals and medieval portals, the village of Carces is a place not to be missed if you are staying in Provence.<\/p>\n

With a thriving market selling everything from the local delicious delicacies to unique and quirky items crafted out of olive wood, Saturday morning is a particularly vibrant time to visit Carces.<\/p>\n

Although if walking in tranquil and beautiful settings and swimming in crystal clear water sounds more up your street, then travel approximately 4 kilometres to the south of Carces until you arrive at Lac de Carces, which offers the ideal setting for a peaceful walk and some \u2018soothing\u2019 swimming.<\/p>\n

This idyllic scene is yours for the taking if you stay at Chateau des Vignes (pictured), a five bedroom villa in Provence<\/a>, situated a \u2018stone\u2019s throw\u2019 from this inspirational French village of Carces.<\/p>\n

Nestled cosily amongst a maze of woodlands, vines and olive groves, Chateau des Vignes will no doubt enhance your holiday in this quintessential area of Provence.<\/p>\n

Internally, Chateau des Vignes exudes style and opulence, whilst retaining many traditional features, including original tiled floors, tall windows that not only bring light and a feeling of airiness into the property, but overlook the stunning gardens below.<\/p>\n

These immaculately maintained gardens include their own private pool with a shallow \u2018plage\u2019 area for young children, as well as a wooded area, a large dining terrace to enjoy sipping a glass of exquisite Provence wine in the warm evening air, and, for the sportier types, there is badminton, pentanque and a children\u2019s swing.<\/p>\n

If you are a French wine enthusiast, your involvement in the pleasure should extend further than simply sipping it in the grounds of Chateau des Vignes. Being located in close proximity to many vineyards, a visit to where the local wine is produced is a must.<\/p>\n

Likewise so is spending an afternoon at the Abbaye du Thoronet, a sensational 12th<\/sup> century Cistercian abbey, as well as the Gorges du Verdon, where the scenery is dynamic and the sporting opportunities are prevalent.<\/p>\n

A week\u2019s rental of Chateau des Vignes costs \u00a32595 at the beginning of July rising to \u00a32895 in August.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
