Perched on a hillside above the Luberon valley, this Provençal villa is built for slow, sun-filled days. The pool terrace – shaded by parasols and framed by wide valley views – is the heart of the stay, while a covered outdoor dining area just off the kitchen makes alfresco meals effortless, whatever the weather. Inside, the kitchen opens to the garden and is laid out for cooking together rather than alone. Roussillon's famous ochre village is a short drive away, and the Sentier des Ocres – a trail through flame-red canyon landscapes – is just a fifteen-minute walk from the front door.

About Provence
Provence’s pastoral landscapes are a French fantasy come true. Peaceful hills humming with cicadas, swathes of olive trees, colourful markets, secluded creeks, and scrublands perfumed with lavender are all evocative of this southern French idyll. It’s little wonder why Cezanne, Van Gogh, and Chagall all felt the pull to immortalise the region in art.
