About the Place

Welcome to our stunning property in the heart of Provence. Just 5 mins walk into the tourist free, yet equally charming undiscovered village of Beaucaire and only 20-30mins drive to every attraction in Provence. Only 25 mins from the famous Camargue and 1 hour to the sea! Check out out tour of the house here ********

Our recently refurbished “Petit Domaine” is located next to impressive main house, which in its history has seen visits from Napoleon!

Relax in total seclusion at this private and magical walled estate with an incredible 1-hectare garden that kisses the banks of the beautiful Rhône River. A sea of Plane trees and pétanque courts are just outside our electric gate. A peaceful 5-10 min stroll takes you into the town square with twice weekly markets (at the locals’ prices!) with Beaucaire train station taking you directly to Arles, Avignon, and St Rémy de Provence.

New pool construction is due at end of June, until then enjoy an evening glass of Rose under our favourite Willow tree.

We are an Australian/Swedish couple who have spent many of our younger years living in France. We also own a cafe in the heart of Haymarket London, so we know good coffee. We are fluent in French, English and Swedish.

We chose this area because it is so central to everything in Provence. Being on the edge of the village of Beaucaire means you don't need to get in the car every day if you don't want to. Walking is a pleasure around here.

At 340 years old, our property is steeped in history. We love the stone steps that lead you up to the bedrooms in the "petit house” worn over time - who has walked on those steps!
We love that we have a view of the river and can walk up to the Castle in the evening or morning to enjoy the sunrise/set.

Here is some interesting history!

According to the oldest archives, it was built in ******** on land belonging to Henry de Porcelets who married his daughter in 1683 to André Joseph de Brancas, then appointed Military Governor of Beaucaire. The house was probably built for this wedding.
Previous buildings, in the Renaissance style, already existed. Others, of ancient origins but of undetermined dates, are to the north of the main residence. On some the dates of ******** are visible.

The Brancas family is a family of very old Provençal nobility (Avignon, Perses-
les Fontaines, Forcalquier, Paris) and the Beaucaire property still bears the name today.
On the death of his wife in 1706, André Joseph de Brancas inherited the property which he passed on to his son André Louis de Brancas in 1709. He sold it in 1712 to two merchants from Beaucaire, Jean Goubier and Guilhem Chavrier.
When Chavrier died, his widow became owner and sold it in 1733 to Pierre Domergue, bourgeois of Beaucaire.

From 1733 to 1975, the property remained in the Domergue family, sometimes being transmitted by women under various names. It served as a warehouse for goods passing through the Fair of Beaucaire. It also served as stables for several dozen horses used for the "ascent" of boats on the Rhône. Many vestiges of this activity are still visible.
In 1975, it was acquired by Mr and Mrs Eymar who set up an antique business there.
They resold it in 1993 to the current owner.

It is said that the house would have received the visit of illustrious guests, in particular Napoleon Bonaparte in 1793!
