About the villa
A former farmhouse, recently restored, this lovely family villa offers privacy, space and comfort in abundance, and gorgeous gardens, filled to overflowing with mature trees, shrubs and flowers. An al fresco dining area, under leafy shade, looks out to lawns, lavender beds and clustered cypress spires; a fountain splashes soothingly on a sunny terrace; boules, table tennis can be played in the grounds; and, beside the heated swimming pool, a shady pergola adjoins a well-planned pool house with a bathroom and small kitchen. Within the innately welcoming villa, rooms are furnished in country-chic style, combining beautiful antique pieces with contemporary facilities.
At the heart of the house is a multi-functional family room/library, where a grand vaulted ceiling and exposed stone walls now frame comfy seating and a home cinema, a pool table and an open fireplace. Bedrooms are in charming Provencal style, most with en suite facilities. And while the kitchen is replete with modern appliances, cook service could be added. A five minute stroll from restaurants and shops in Lauris, the villa is central for Lubéron discovery.

Provence
Average weather
If you are looking for sun-soaked olive groves, carpets of lavender, sunflower fields, Roman ruins, and gently trellised vines, Provence villa holidays deliver. The region’s blue skies, mountainous landscapes, and photogenic seascapes inspired Van Gogh and Cézanne, and continue to seduce visitors in towns like Aix-en-Provence and Arles. Add the vibrant street markets, gourmet foods—like truffles and chestnuts—and some of the world’s best wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and you have yourself one seriously epicurean destination.
