Set within a six-hectare estate of truffle oaks, olive trees, and lavender outside Murs, this Provençal bastide earns its keep in the way it unfolds outdoors – a heated pool with sun loungers, a shaded dining terrace with a plancha and barbecue, a pétanque court, and multiple garden seating areas scattered across the grounds. The setting is peaceful, with no close neighbours and wide views of the Luberon stretching out beyond the estate. Gordes, one of France's most celebrated hilltop villages, is a fifteen-minute drive, and Sénanque Abbey's lavender-framed monastery is about twenty-eight minutes by car.
