Photos and Description of this Lourmarin holiday villa Oasis of calm with fabulous pool and extensive terraces - sleeps 12

Only ten minutes walk from the centre of Lourmarin, this lovely vine-covered villa offers total tranquility in its one and a half acres of beautiful garden, kept permanently green by its own artesian well. In winter, you may choose to relax in the spacious sitting room in front of the huge romantic log fire, but summer will probably find you eating, reading, or just soaking up the sun around the 12m pool or on the sweeping stone terraces that surround the house. Completely refurbished four years ago, it can accommodate up to 12 people in six bedrooms: two are on the ground floor with French window access into the terraces making them perfect for older people or those with mobility problems and two are in a self-contained lower ground floor, ideal for teenagers or those who want to get away from their fellow guests. There is a large fully-equipped summer house complete with American fridge and ice-making machine, BBQ and its own shower and toilet. All towels and linen are provided.

Location: Lourmarin in France

Car: recommended
Lourmarin, acclaimed as one of the prettiest villages in France, is a unique mixture of sophistication and unspoiled Provencal charm. The art galleries, craft shops and the famous Friday market attract visitors from miles around as does the celebrated 16thc chateau where concerts and other cultural events are held regularly through the summer months. The area is famous for the number and variety of its restaurants which range from simple bistros, ideal for family meals, to some of the most renowned exponents of gastronomy in the South of France. More energetic visitors will enjoy cycling trips or walks throughout the Luberon hills and some of the other villages in the area – Merindol, Gordes, Bonnieux, to name but a few, are bound to be on your must-visit list because of their historical connections or breathtaking natural beauty. One thing is for certain: you will not be bored.

Total relaxation

Xxww London
Review Submitted: November 20, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
This is a very well appointed house in large grounds and is excellent either for a family or a group of friends to enjoy a hugely relaxing time in the Luberon. The terraces around the house are a particular feature affording many different opportunities for al fresco dining, whether poolside or shaded by trees or for candlelit dinners on balmy summer evenings. It is very well placed for visiting all the lovely towns and villages of the region.

Fantastic house in great location

me&dm st albans herts UK
Review Submitted: November 19, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
This is a beautifully furnished, clean and well maintained house. Equiped to a very high standard by the friendly owners, there are many personal touches in the house, giving it the feel of a home rather than a basic, functional rental property. Downstairs rooms have shutters and french doors out onto the terrace that surrounds the house. Great features. A spacious house over a number of levels, it provides easy,comfortable,stylish living. Outside there is a super, secluded pool and large garden to provide welcome shade when needed. The poolside summer kitchen is an excellent facility and adds to the overall sense of easy,comfortable living.

The nearby village has a real ‘French’ feel to it with interesting places to explore and a number of good restaurants and bars. There are some small specialist shops there and a much larger supermarket a very short drive away making it is easy to stock up.

For the more energetic, this is a great base for exploring all that Provence has to offer, with many places of interest within easy reach.

This is a fantastic house, in a super location, great for family groups or groups of friends looking to rest, relax and chill out. Highly recommended.

A beautiful house in a wonderful area of France

Jane & Bob Sussex, England
Review Submitted: November 15, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
A very comfortably furnished house in secluded yet accessible surroundings. The house was immaculately prepared for our arrival, the pool clean and inviting and the garden well tended.
There is a short walk to the pretty village of Lourmarin with it's excellent restaurants and boutiques and the lovely chateau where we were lucky enough to attend a concert given by an internationally renowned painist. A truly memorable evening.
There are some good walks around the village vineyards and many ancient villages close by.
We will definitely return for another relaxing and comfortable stay in this special villa. and strongly recommend it others.

A wonderful place!

Toby1 Melbourne, Australia
Review Submitted: November 14, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
We have been to this house twice in the last three years and have booked again for 2010. The house, garden and pool are fantastic and everything is impeccably maintained. It is a luxurious home away from home. The house is wonderfully large and well equipped. The children had great times roaming the extensive garden and swimming in the pool whilst the adults pondered what to eat next whilst sitting on the terrace. Very relaxing! Lourmarin is a delightful village, with great bakeries, local produce and artisan inspired shops, and a weekly market. It is also exceedingly pretty and pleasant to walk around with little winding streets and historic architecture. A car is definitely recommended as the surrounded countryside is well worth exploring. Highly recommended and we are looking forward to our next stay.

Would we go again - yes!

Tracy & Gareth London, England
Review Submitted: November 12, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We had a wonderful week in this spacious house in Lourmarin quietly situated on the outskirts of the town. It has been lavishly furnished whilst at the same time reflecting the Provencale style, and is well equipped to meet the needs of its occupants. The gardens were extensive and beautifully landscaped which added to the sense of tranquillity. The pool area was restful and ideal for a relaxing breakfast or evening barbeque. I would certainly recommend it.

Lourmarin is a picturesque and charming village with winding roads, street cafes and antique markets to browse, with several restaurants to choose from. It is well placed for sightseeing around some of the ‘must-see’ hilltop villages in the region, whilst only being an hour away from Marseilles airport.
