… with vistas of mountains, villages and fragrant fields of lavender and wild thyme. In the dramatic easternmost South of France, fields of broom and oak forests stretch to the rocky peaks of the Alpes Maritimes. Quaint villages perch on hillsides, luminous in the golden sunshine (over 300 days a year). This is Provence at its most picturesque, brimming with wineries, flower markets, olive festivals and antique shops. Yet it is close to the beaches of St. Tropez and the excitement of Monte Carlo, and a short drive from Aix-en-Provence, the Luberon, the Gorges du Verdon, and the Isola 2000 ski resort. Whether guests? interests cover museums or sporting events, scenic drives or vigorous activities, all are easily at hand. Open in spring 2004, the Four Seasons Resort Provence is within the Domaine de Terre Blanche, an enclave of residential seclusion just outside the village of Fayence. Spilling gently through a pine and oak forest, the Resort offers one- and two-storey villas, landscaped for privacy and connected by meandering walkways. Views overlook the surrounding hills, forests and villages. Four Seasons interiors are decidedly cosmopolitan, fresh and light-filled, a contemporary interpretation of the region?s heritage. Four Seasons comfortable luxury and thoughtful service complement a large fitness centre, some of Europe?s most exceptional golfing facilities, outdoor swimming and recreational opportunities for all ages, to ensure that your visit to Provence will be truly exhilarating.
