Set in the Luberon region, this home welcomes any family or group of friends to kick back, relax and soak up the Provençal sunshine. The outdoor space features a fenced pool (handy if you’re staying with little ones) and a pétanque court for friendly games during leisurely afternoons. There’s also a covered terrace for alfresco meals, cooked up by your or a private chef – a service your helpful host can arrange for an additional fee. The rural location means you’ll need a car to get around, but there are plenty of charming villages with cafes and restaurants within a twenty-minute drive.
