Discover our welcome place and our territory

Mas Saint-Paul

Mas Saint Paul is a family farm located in Fontvieille, in the heart of the Alpilles. Farmers for five generations, we cultivate our olive trees and produce organic olive oil. The farm consists of a one-hectare garden, a wooden chalet for 2 to 4 people, equipped with a small kitchenette, shower room and toilet. The chalet offers warm, rustic accommodation, with WiFi access.


Our place is designed to be open and welcoming. Visitors can stroll through the garden, discover the village, observe the farm animals or simply enjoy the calm and natural surroundings. Mas Saint Paul reflects our family history, our connection to the land and our desire to share our profession and our daily lives.

Our eco-responsible and farming commitments

At Mas Saint Paul :


  1. We grow our olive trees organically, limiting the use of natural resources and promoting biodiversity on our farm.
  2. We favor short circuits and local products for our farm table and our activities.
  3. We raise our visitors' awareness of nature conservation through our workshops and educational tours.


These actions are part of a global approach to preserving our territory and transmitting a more environmentally-friendly way of life.

  • Open-air laundry drying, provision of clotheslines
  • Home cooking
  • Majority local products

Territory description

Located in Provence's Vallée des Baux, our village of Fontvieille is an ideal stopover for discovering the history, nature and culture of the Alpilles. The village, which inspired Alphonse Daudet, offers a pleasant old center to explore, Provencal markets and several walking trails around mills, old quarries and local heritage.


A few kilometers away, you'll find Daudet's mill, the Château de Montauban and the remains of the Roman aqueducts at Barbegal, as well as other villages and places of interest such as Arles, Les Baux-de-Provence and Saint-Rémy-de-Provence -all great places to visit to complete your stay in the region.


Rain or shine, you can take shelter in the nearby museums and cultural sites, visit mills and historic sites, or enjoy the cafés, galleries and boutiques in the village center. The Provencal market and the shaded areas around Fontvieille also allow you to stay outside without being directly exposed to the elements, while discovering local produce and the art of living in Provence.
