Home description
Villa Althen is a charming property, comfortably and beautifully furnished in a rustic provencal style and has the additional advantage of being all one level.
The open plan living/dining room/American kitchen is ideal for spending quality time with the whole family and also opens onto the outside. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable, some equipped with TV's.
Outside, the children will enjoy the large grounds and the private pool, whilst the grown ups will love relaxing on the covered terrace or dining al fresco under the willow tree.
A wonderful location for a relaxing holiday and if you manage to tear yourself away from the villa, there is also plenty to do nearby with the beautiful city of Avignon just 17 km away.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Vaucluse region
The Vaucluse is home to ancient stone settlements and pittoresque villages perched on high rocks such as Gordes and Roussillon, providing many day trips and afternoons out and about. A major Roman road runs along the north side of the Massif, that led from Italy to Spain passing through the Roman town of Apt.
Ancient ruins and forts barely surviving the Wars of Religion tell astounding stories to visitors of this area rich in history.
The Luberon is mainly dry and arid, made up of limestone cliffs, rocky plains and pine forests. Lavender, thyme and rosemary grow naturally and provide a sweet scented air on hot days. Canals, rivers and lakes lace the region, the cool water and green banks providing a cool haven for wildlife and bathers alike!
The climate is fairly hot and dry from may through to the end of September, with temperatures averaging already around 25 degrees in June.
