Jean was an INCREDIBLE host and the property is amazingly charming and located in a gorgeous Provencial setting in the south of France just outside the town of Aix-en-Provence. The room we had for 3 people was the size of a large apartment with two toilets, a simple living room on the bottom floor and two bedrooms and a shower and separate bathtub upstairs. Jean was incredibly kind and accommodating and made us breakfast every morning at 8 or 9 a.m. depending on our preference/plans. Breakfast was a delicious spread of croissants, French bread, hard boiled eggs, jams, butter, cheeses and coffee and orange juice. I would highly recommend renting a car as this little town is 10 minutes outside of a small town. The pizza truck Chez Seb and Jess Pizza Rossi at the end of the driveway is open Tuesday - Friday 5-9pm only. They are closed Sunday and Monday. During our stay in mid July 2025, there was also a truck selling burgers, snacks and some basic groceries. The pizza truck sells wine bottles and beer. I included photos updated from July 2025 with current menus. There is a gorgeous pool and we were even able to order some basic snacks and lunch on Uber eats and eat outside before we had a rental car as to not interrupt our pool day. Uber and Bolt are available for rides into town. There is also a bus that goes into town, but it takes a round about route so it takes a while and stops running somewhat early (7pm maybe?). We didn't end up using the bus, but Uber and Bolt can take a little extra time to pick up so build that into your plan if you don't have a car.

Nothing could be better!

First of all, the accommodation is located very close to Aix-en-Provence — in just 8 minutes you’re already in the city. La Ferme feels like it’s been taken straight out of those beautiful books about Provence: there’s lavender, a lovely pool, colorful flowers, and charming little houses with blue shutters — in one word, wonderful. The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and we had fresh, white towels and perfectly ironed bed linens. Every day, the hosts made sure the room was tidy and clean, if needed. Speaking of the hosts, they are truly kind and helpful people. They gave us clear and useful tips about what to visit, where to park in the city, and the best places to eat in Aix or the surrounding area. Breakfast was also delicious — besides the great coffee, we always looked forward to a friendly chat with the host, who would share interesting facts about France or other equally fascinating topics. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone who wants to stay somewhere that combines beauty and the comforting feeling of home.

Nothing

We spent 7 nights at La Ferme. It really was a wonderful time in a fantastically idyllic complex centred around the owner's private estate. The houses are of older, solid, romantic construction, very well maintained and the bed & breakfast rooms are beautifully and functionally furnished. The Wi-Fi works well and there is a fridge and kettle that you can't hear and you can also prepare small private snacks, which you can then enjoy anywhere in the garden area if you wish. Depending on the room type, a TV is also available. There is also a really nice pool area. The very large garden area and also the breakfast area create a warm, inviting and private atmosphere. There are many beautiful corners to explore and the large goldfish pond is a haven of peace in this complex. Mr Fournier is always available for questions and tips and really advised us with great recommendations for day trips and places worth seeing. We will be very happy to come back if our travels take us to Provence again. A clear recommendation.

Thank you very nuch for your hospitality

The accommodation was clean and exceptionally spacious. We loved the location, generous parking, beautiful gardens, and stunning scenery all around. The bed was comfortable, a really good shower, and breakfast was delicious. Best of all was our host, M. Fournier, who as well as being helpful and friendly, is an intelligent and knowledgeable man. He knows a great deal about the local area, and we enjoyed our conversations with him about history, politics, and culture. We also appreciated his recommendations of places to visit in the area.

All was good.

Our stay at La Ferme in Saint-Marc Jaumegarde was nothing short of delightful. This charming B&B, housed in a 200-year-old building with classic Provence rustic style, complete with blue window shutters, was a picturesque retreat. The property is surrounded by a beautiful garden cradled in trees, featuring a large lawn, a fish pond with koi carps, and a lovely swimming pool. The serene and lush environment provided a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. Jean-Christoph Fournier, the owner, speaks perfect English and was incredibly charming and helpful. He provided us with excellent recommendations for exploring the area and dining at nearby restaurants. His dedication to the B&B was evident, as he single-handedly managed all the gardening, cleaning, ironing, and breakfast preparations. The B&B is ideally located, just a 15-minute drive from Aix-en-Provence and surrounded by stunning mountains. It’s also only an hour’s drive from the famous lavender fields, where we spent a magical day immersed in beauty. Overall, La Ferme offered an idyllic and authentic Provençal experience, thanks to its beautiful setting and the hard work and hospitality of Jean-Christoph. We highly recommend it for a peaceful and memorable stay in Provence.

everything was nice

Everything! This is a gorgeous, unique property a very short drive from Aix, and walking distance from mountain trails. John is a great host, and super helpful. He helped us with a walking trail, and even made a dinner reservation for us. The room for 4 people is really a mini apartment - homely, spacious and comfortable. Our whole family loved the swimming pool! The photos don’t do this place justice. If you are in the area, you should definitely visit.

There is genuinely nothing not to love.

We absolutely loved our stay at La Ferme. Jean is a wonderful and kind host who made us feel right at home. We only stayed two nights but wished we had stayed longer. He runs his B&B with a lot of love and you can see and feel that everywhere. The house and garden are lovely. The breakfast was delicious and Jean gave us great tips for hikes and restaurants in the area

Everything was great

This was our second stay in La Ferme. This is a peaceful place to spend a couple of nights and recharge again. Close to Aix-en Provence but away from the crowd. You can listen the sounds of the trees and birds. You can spend the whole day at the pool area or you can drive to lavender fields or Luberon villages in between 30-45 minutes. Owner. Jaan is helpful with all the requests. This is a place we will visit the 3 rd time in the coming years. Cihan

The B&B is absolutely beautiful with its lush gardens and the cute fish pond and pool. The room was very clean, with an interesting layout. The location is also very good: convenient for exploring Provence but also next to a city (Aix). The host was cool, he made us feel welcome and we liked chatting to him during breakfast.

We found it fun, since we only stayed for a few nights, but the freestanding bathtub inside the room might be a bit tricky for some.
