Recently renovated town house with private pool and stunning views in the pretty perched village of Oppedette in the beautiful Luberon.
La Madeleine is a recently renovated town house which has been lovingly restored into luxurious holiday accommodation with attention to detail and respecting local traditions, crafts and materials. The restoration combines simplicity and luxury to create colourful and cosy accommodation in a Provencal farmhouse style.
The property is situated on the edge of the small village of Oppedette north-east of Apt and enjoys stunning views of the surrounding Luberon hills.
The nearby river has carved an impressive series of gorges next to the village, with the main canyon about 2.5 kilometres long and up to 150 metres deep. Along a pleasant path from the village there is a viewing point that gives an impressive introduction to their scenic grandeur.
The gorges offer some fantastic walking with waymarked routes including a path that follows along both sides of the gorges or for the more adventurous a descent into the gorge.
La Madeleine is perfectly located for exploring this magical part of the south of France with some of the finest perched villages in Provence including Gordes, Menerbes, Lacoste and Bonnieux within 40km. There are also many other fascinating villages and towns to discover, many with weekly markets, within a very short drive including Reillanne and Cereste.
