About the neighborhood
Pourrières
This guesthouse is located within a 15-minute drive of Karting Vallée de l'Arc and Montagne Sainte-Victoire. Guestrooms at this guesthouse include kitchenettes, balconies, and dining areas.
You will love L'Olivette, a cottage nestled in the heart of a Provençal village perched on a hill in the middle of vineyards. It dominates the Arc valley, and the panorama includes the Sainte Victoire mountain to the Sainte Baume and Mont Aurélien. All facilities (food, restaurants, pharmacy) are in the immediate vicinity on foot. Pourrières is an ideal starting point for visiting Provence, the Haut Var or the Cote d'Azur. You will enjoy a stay that will delight lovers of active holidays as a family or couple.
The Olivette has 2 bedrooms with individual bathrooms, a kitchen-living room overlooking a south-facing balcony. WIFI, TV, fitted kitchen, microwave oven, plancha, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer are at your disposal, to facilitate your stay and be perfectly autonomous.
A balcony promises you quiet dinners, with the setting sun shining on the Holy Victory, nearby. You also have access to a space in the shade of olive trees, to have lunch not far from the pool, or to play petanque at aperitif time. A large swimming pool is shared with the owners whose independent villa is on the same plot.
A parking lot closed by a gate welcomes your vehicle safely. A small garage can safely accommodate bicycles, or motorcycles if necessary.
From the Olivette, which is a starting point for many hikes in the nearby garrigue, you can climb the Sainte Victoire, the Sainte Baume or Mount Olympus, discover the surrounding vineyards and villages by bike, motorcycle or car.
You are close to everything. Aix en Provence, Marseille, Cassis, the calanques, are easily accessible from Pourrières. Many cultural attractions, theme evenings, concerts, visits to wine estates, take place around.
Finally, access is easy, whether you come by Plane (Marseille - Provence or Nice airport) by Train (Aix TGV station) or by car (A8).

Un séjour agréable et ressourçant
Nous avons passé deux semaines incroyables dans le gîte de Patrick et Claudine. Le gîte était très confortable et l'accès au jardin et à la piscine parfait. La piscine est vraiment extraordinaire et la vue du gîte incroyable! Nous avons pu visiter les environs facilement. Nos autres ont été charmants et de bons conseils.
