Stretching from Mont Ventoux to the Southern Alps, the views at this villa are not to be missed. Whether you're cooling off in the private pool or dining alfresco on the terrace, the tree-studded, lavender-laden backdrop feels perfectly Provençal. Inside, traditional charm merges with contemporary details to create a cosy home-from-home. With the option for two children to sleep on bunk beds in the fourth bedroom, we think it suits families down to the ground – just note that only three bedrooms have air conditioning. Location-wise, Avignon and Aix-en-Provence are both an hour or so by car, making them ideal options for day trips.
