St Remy de Provence

Our second visit to St Remy de Provence is certainly not disappointing us. The charming town of St Remy, while quite touristy, is full of restaurants and beautiful French inspired shops with loads of character. Plenty of laneways to explore during our week long stay here. Our accommodation at Mas Des Tourterelles is perfect and within walking distance to the centre of town. St Remy de Provence is overlooked by the Chaine des Alpilles, a range of the Pyrenees mountains in southern France . St Remy is one of the oldest towns in France and has been home to many artists including Vincent van Gogh who painted 150 canvases when he spent time here at the St Paul de Mousole hospital, which we hope to visit later in the week.

 

Although a damp day, it has not stopped us enjoying the local markets in St Remy held every Wednesday, equal to my favourite Salamanca Markets.
