Château Saint-Martin & Spa

Provence has many faces: the blazing sunshine over the vineyards, the sense of time stretching out, gastronomic delights, and its hold over artists. Matisse, Chagall, Picasso and Cézanne roamed these hills and immortalised them. And the Maeght Foundation in Saint-Paul-de-Vence honours them all. Château Saint-Martin is part of this landscape steeped in creativity; just a few kilometres from the Foundation, it combines a deep connection to the place with a generous vision of hospitality, mindful of sustainability and history. Set amongst olive groves, cypress trees and terraced gardens, the grounds are designed in keeping with the spirit of the region to form a comprehensive catalogue of Provence, where art and tradition intertwine.

The rest

Linger in a Cabane — shaded by century-old olive trees — between swims.

The intimacy

Ask the sommelier to turn the wine cellar into a private dining room.
