Nestled amid rolling vineyards and immaculate gardens, Villa Baulieu offers an idyllic escape in the Pays d’Aix, where the beauty of Provence meets the elegance of a Tuscan-style château. With breathtaking views of the Alpilles and Sainte-Victoire mountains, this historic estate embodies a centuries-old tradition of viticulture and refined hospitality.
Built in the 17th century, Villa Baulieu was envisioned as a grand family estate, later refined in the 18th century by architect Vallon, with its Italian-style façade remaining unchanged since 1805.
Surrounded by Provence’s only volcanic terroir, the estate boasts over 2,000 years of winemaking heritage, producing exceptional wines with remarkable ageing potential. The property also features an 800-tree truffle grove, where trained Border Collies unearth the finest Tuber melanosporum truffles, and 100 beehives, producing exquisite honey infused with local flora such as lavender and thyme.
At Villa Baulieu, relaxation and adventure go hand in hand. Guests can unwind with spa treatments in the rose garden, take a dip in the UV-filtered pool, or explore the scenic surroundings on mountain bikes. The estate is also a gateway to Provence’s rich cultural scene, with renowned music and theatre festivals, charming hilltop villages, and vibrant local markets just moments away.
For those dreaming of an unforgettable celebration, Villa Baulieu provides an exclusive setting for weddings, private gatherings, and corporate retreats. With 12 luxurious rooms and suites, as well as event spaces accommodating up to 350 guests, the château offers complete privacy and customisation, ensuring every occasion is truly exceptional.
A stay at Airelles Villa Baulieu is an immersion into history, nature, and Provençal elegance, where every moment is designed to inspire and delight.
