At the foot of the Sainte-Baume mountains, in the peace of all its grounds, this charming hotel is a wonderful refuge, not far from Aix en Provence and the rocky inlets of Cassis.

On the ground floor of the Relais de la Magdeleine, an early 18th century country house covered in ivy a string of rooms will seduce you straightaway.

For three generations, the same family has cared for the soul of this place where period furniture decorates the lounges and bedrooms. They all open on to the garden or the terrace, which invite you to relax in a landscape of Provençal colours. Just below, a lawn surrounds the swimming pool, spa and vegetable garden of this hotel near Cassis.

Refined cuisine in Provençal flavours.
