Villa de l'Arc - Résidence Provençale - is a beautiful mansion at the edge of downtown Orange in the Vaucluse. The Villa is situated at a comfortable five minutes walk from downtown.
Villa de l'Arc was build at a unique historic spot: right on the roundabout of the Arc de Triomphe, the more than 2000 years old Roman monument, that is still in almost pristine state. Orange is a pleasant town of about 28.000 inhabitants in de Provence with lots of history, all services and situated right in the middle of the wineries of the Southern Rhône-area, about two hours south of Lyon. The infamous Mont Ventoux is very close, as are the cities of Avignon and Nîmes. The international airport of Marseille and the Mediterranean Sea are at a driving distance of less than one hour.
Since 2001, Villa de l'Arc had been used as a luxury Guesthouse.
