From the outside this is an imposing building with a rich history of accommodating officers of French law, but as you step into the beautiful reception area, be prepared for a surprise!

Of the 6 apartments in total, 5 have 2 bedrooms, 1 has 3 bedrooms. Each is very spacious with King and Queen size beds, well-equipped kitchens and large bathrooms. Outside each apartment has a private terrace or balcony and shared used of the large pool.

The style throughout the building is comfortable, modern and uncluttered. There is attention to detail and where possible, the original features of the building have been retained and incorporated in the new design.

One of the biggest surprises is to find such a large pool and paved area, hidden from view of the village. Again take a look at the photos to get an idea of the great views and privacy of this area.

The Gendarmerie is the perfect location if you want to be in the heart of the Luberon and able to explore all the picture-postcard hilltop villages, great restaurant and surrounding spectacular scenery. It has the advantage of a village centre location, with shops, bakers, restaurants and market on the doorstep, but with the luxury and tranquillity often only found when you stay at a remote, expensive villa.

Further details outdoors

Outside each apartment has a private terrace/balcony with good quality garden furniture.

The clever design means they enjoy sun during autumn and winter but are more shaded during the hot summer.

The large pool, which is heated in spring and autumn, has a shallow interior pool for children and a large surrounding paved area. There's also a shaded area with garden furniture - ideal for relaxing and sipping a glass of white wine!
