Visit wine châteaux, Michelin starred restaurants and idyllic villages during your stay at Villa Luberon Sud, a delightfully restored farmhouse with the most glorious views of the Luberon landscapes.

This wonderfully restored Provençal mas exudes character and charm with its traditional stone walls, wood beamed ceilings and traditional décor. The open-plan lounge has French windows opening to both the north and south facing terrace allowing shady relaxation at any time of day. The living space leads through to the most charming kitchen with original features alongside modern appliances. Enjoying breakfast on the east terrace as the sun rises is an especially memorable experience.

Up to 10 guests can stay across the five bedrooms including a romantic master double with an open-plan bathroom and gorgeous terrace overlooking the Luberon countryside. Indeed, thanks to the Villa Luberon Sud’s hilltop setting, the panoramic vistas around the domaine are superb.

Within the vast gated grounds there are so many places to sit and while away your time, perhaps with a glass of AOC Luberon from a local vineyard. The summer kitchen is such an atmospheric spot for al-fresco meals with loved ones by the pizza oven whilst the rustic grounds add to the Provençal charm. There’s no doubt you will also spend long afternoons in the swimming pool, close to the pool house with its handy shower and WC.

When you are ready to head exploring, start off in hilltop Ansouis just 4km away, officially classified in France as a ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ and home to an impressive château, lovely weekly market and a Michelin starred restaurant. There’s another Michelin starred establishment in nearby Cucuron, a picture-perfect village with its tree-lined bassin, whilst much-loved Lourmarin is a further gem of this part of Provence.

Then there’s walking, cycling and hiking past vineyards, almond trees and olive groves, as well as canoeing along the Durance River. Visit yet more perched village of the Luberon, admire the Saturday morning market in Apt or even spend the day soaking up the Provençal ambience of Aix-en-Provence, only half an hour from your Luberon countryside home.
