Home description
The great thing about this property is the spacious feeling you get, despite being just 400m from the historic village of Bonnieux – just a short walk in the morning to get your croissants!
With superb views of the Luberon and Mont Ventoux, you don’t feel like you’re so close to the amenities, and you soon realise that you’re in an ideal spot for exploring the local area, whether that be cycling and hiking through the beautiful countryside, or visiting the picturesque local villages by car.
Another excellent feature of this property is its stylish interior – throughout the villa, there is a soft colour scheme, providing a warm Provencal atmosphere. Despite this traditional feel, there are all the modern appliances that you could need to ensure you have a thoroughly enjoyable holiday!
This property easily accommodates six people in three double rooms, while downstairs there’s a generous living area, with all the modern entertainment facilities you need to make your stay more enjoyable.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Vaucluse region
There's loads to do in the Vaucluse region. The scenery is some of the most stunning in France, and has always provided a challenge to serious climbers, cyclists and hikers. Alternatively, there's Tennis available in Apt or Bonnieux, horseback riding in Apt and mountain bikes for rent in Bonnieux. It really is hard to get bored here!
There are many Regional summer festivities throughout the region: theatre in Avignon, opera in Aix and Orange, a jazz festival in La Roque d’Antheron and many antique fairs and flea markets. Many of the small local villages host their own summer festivals, and many have a weekly market, well worth a visit to see the range of local produce on offer.
If it's history you're after, there's Avignon, with the Palace Of The Popes and some of the finest examples of Medieval architecture in Europe. Or for a Roman theme, sites such as St Remy De Provence and Pont Du Garde are nearby. Each village seems to have its own history, so why not pay a visit, and wander through the narrow winding streets, or explore the ramparts and Medieval churches.
If you like the idea of a visit to the coast, you can easily go to the coast in the morning, take a swim in the warm waters of the Mediterranean, and return in the early evening.
Bonnieux area
The village of Bonnieux has a rich and varied history and is considered to be one of the most beautiful in the Luberon, and the house is just 400m away. In summer, the village is really popular and therefore has some great restaurants and cafés. Although not very big, it has some useful and interesting shops, including bakers, butchers, grocery, pharmacy, post office and tourist information centre. There's also a local market on a Friday.
The winding roads of the Luberon, with spectacular views, are great to explore and you'll find loads of picturesque villages (Gordes, Menerbes, Maubec) on the doorstep and no doubt you'll want to stop and take some refreshments!
Just a short drive away there's a great Sunday morning market at Coustellet and the larger town of Apt is only 15 minutes away.
If activity is your thing, this area is perfect for climbing, cycling, mountain biking, trekking, golf, tennis and swimming.
