Domaine d'Orvès

The garden surrounds a Provençal bastide at the foot of Mount Coudon.

Trees in the garden include Photinia serratifolia, Cocculus laurifolius, pinus pinea, oleander.

It belonged to the commune, was rented for a time by the Marquis de Castellane, and then was purchased by the painter Pierre Deval in 1925.

After the war Deval and his wife Henriette replanted the trees which had surrounded the house.

Beginning in 1993, their daughter Françoise inherited the house and restored and added many new kinds of trees and plants to the gardens.
