Château de Saint-Girons - Luxury Guest House in Provence

This is an exquisitely beautiful property inside and out. It was like staying in a castle updated of course with well appointed furnishings, bathroom fixtures, etc. Our room was a large sized suite, the breakfast was very good, the grounds are beautiful and walkable, and the location quiet but a short driving distance from Aix-en-Provence and the airport at Marseilles. Perfect in every way.

A nice setting. It was a bit messy due to the high winds with leaves & debris scattered about. I’m sure that it would look nice when the weather was calmer and they’d had a chance to catch up on yard work which would have been pointless during the windy conditions. The overall state of the stately home was more rustic & worn. For the price paid, we expected a more substantial breakfast and more modern amenities such as the bathroom, lighting, power outlets, etc. The location was good with easy access to both Aix-en-Provence and restaurants and services in the immediate area. The host and his family were friendly & charming.

Beautiful chateau in great location The chateau is a wonderful place to stay. Rooms are very spacious and beautifully furnished. The grounds are wonderful and we loved having our breakfast there. Clement was the perfect host and very welcoming. We used the chateau as our base as it is very close to Aix en Provence. It was a lovely quiet place to go back to after our visits to the many villages and towns nearby. Highly recommended.

Lebende Geschichte, toller Gastgeber! Wir waren als Familie für zwei Nächte im April dort. Das Schloss, ein Gebäude aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, wurde liebevoll restauriert. In jedem Raum atmet man Geschichte. Wir haben uns sehr gefreut, dort zu Gast sein zu dürfen und die Highlights wie das Kaminzimmer oder den riesigen Park zu genießen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut. Die Lage ist gut, man ist innerhalb von 10 Minuten mit dem Auto in Aix en Provence. Den Verkehr von der großen Straße hört man etwas, wir haben es aber nicht als störend empfunden.

We left London at 11 am by Eurostar and was in The Chateau by 7.30 pm local time: earlier if we had acquired the mechanics of Uber sooner. What a beautiful place and part of France Aix is - even more so, I would imagine, in the height of summer. Despite autumn leaves falling it is a charming, relaxing, quiet chateau 15/20 mins from the station/town centre:(£12-16). Don’t be intimidated by the adjacent major road/motorway, once inside the gates peace & tranquility awaits! If you’re not in Provence ‘to tour’ I suggest registering with Uber: most efficient & cost effective. Our amicable and knowledgeable hosts, Clement & Sarah, have four spacious bedrooms on the first floor for guests. Breakfast was always delightful and plentiful – you never know what interesting guests you may meet....and of course the lugubrious boxer-dog, Jax: appearing unexpectedly for your company, one cannot but warm to him. The Chateau is steeped in family history that Clement is always willing to share with you; its extensive gardens invites exploration. Do spend an afternoon “chilling” in the square in the nearby village. An afternoon and an evening meal in Aix old town is also highly recommended. We were here for a short autumn break (5 nights which flew by) and thoroughly enjoyed it; so much so that we will revisit again in the summer months.
