Home description
Tucked away along a rural track, adjacent to the owners property, you’ll find this idyllic 3 bedroom detached, private villa.
The interior has beautiful beamed ceilings, quality solid wood furniture, cool stone floors and lots of unusual antiques and artefacts that all come together to create a stylish and welcoming holiday home.
The owner certainly has a flair for interior design and the 2 double bedrooms and third bedroom with 2 sets of bunks have all been furnished using traditional Provencal fabrics that create a very comfortable holiday home.
In the summer months you’ll probably spend most of your time on the shaded terrace, overlooking the beautiful, very private garden. It’s well stocked with plants and trees that thrive in the warm Provencal sunshine and fresh air and can take in the breathtaking scenery all around you as you relax and cool off in your own private swimming pool.
One big advantage of this rural setting is that it’s actually only walking distance to the village of Bedoin. This is a picture postcard French village with a vibrant local market on a Monday morning – well worth a visit.

The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Vaucluse region
The local landscape is dominated by vineyards, country roads and quaint villages, all gently basking in the Provencal sunshine.
Overlooking this vista is the giant of Mont Ventoux. This is a 2000m summit that is famous for the challenge it poses to serious cyclists. If you are in the car, it also makes for a great day out with stunning views on a clear day! (Have a look at our Cycling in Provence pages here for more information about Mont Ventoux)
