A Private Villa in Provence
Once the homestead of the Counts of Provence, the Villa Baulieu is a masterpiece of 17th-century architecture and design. Having been lovingly restored to its past splendour, the villa’s interiors seamlessly blend baroque Tuscan influences with modern comfort and luxury.
Echoes of history
Built by the Jullien family in the 17th century, the superb villa that crowns the Baulieu estate is an historic family homestead surrounded by ancient vineyards, marble fountains and shaded grottos. Despite this rich history, by the turn of the 21st century the villa had fallen into disrepair—marking the beginning of a new chapter in the Villa’s story.
Under the care of the Guénant family, Baulieu’s legacy has been lovingly preserved, its design blending modern comforts with a dazzling variety of baroque furnishings and artwork. Each space is imbued with its own particular character, allowing guests to bask in the building’s noble heritage while enjoying contemporary luxury and impeccable service.
Where every room tells a story
The Villa Baulieu’s spacious interior offers 12 beautifully appointed rooms and suites, with sweeping views over the vineyards, the Alpilles mountains, the valley of Luberon and the Alps of Haute Provence. Each room and suite is infused with its own distinct personality, reflecting the cultural influences of the Villa’s many historic residents.
From ornate chandeliers and statues to Renaissance-style bed frames and mosaic ceiling decor, every nook in the villa is a trove of art history, inviting the viewer to ponder the many lives and passions that have flowed through its hallways over the centuries.
A home from home
In addition to these spectacular surroundings, the Villa Baulieu stands out for its devoted service and attention to every detail. Its staff includes a private chef and full butler service, ensuring your needs are not only catered to, but valued and intertwined with the inimitable art de vivre of Provence.
The Villa has always been a family homestead, and today this legacy lives on in the personalised care provided by our staff. Whether you’re looking to plan a banquet dinner, explore the local region or enjoy unique experiences in the grounds and gardens, the Baulieu staff are on hand to help you make the villa your own.
Modern refinement, timeless style
Blended with the spectacular history on display throughout the villa are all the modern amenities one would expect in a property of this stature – Baulieu’s apartments and suites are furnished with air conditioning and Wi-Fi services, with luxurious en-suite bathrooms offering five-star comfort.
The Villa’s many enchanting spaces include a music room and a miniature library, as well as the delightful Orangerie – a greenhouse-style veranda overlooking the swimming pool, providing a sheltered and atmospheric dining space bathed in natural light. With 30 unique rooms extending over 1400m2, Baulieu has a space and ambiance to elevate every moment.
