The house was built many years ago on the ruins of an ancient hamlet. It is built entirely of stone in the traditional Provencal style but enjoys the benefits of huge terraced areas as well as a large pool 14.5m x 6m with 1m depth in the shallow end. There is a shady poolhouse with summer kitchen and shower room.
The house stands alone and backs onto acres of private woodland, one can literally step off the terrace, then walk or cycle up into the hills for miles. Stunning views stretching to Mont St. Victoire and beyond for 50 kms. The major advantage of its position is that even in high summer it benefits from light breezes but never suffers fully from the infamous "Mistral" winds.
There are two levels of lawned gardens, the lower level is flanked by the pool at one end and a traditional boulodrome at the other. The upper level extends to the shady wooded area.
"Thanks so much for letting us stay in your gorgeous house for our first trip to Provence. We have loved the flowers, the view, the wine, the pool - just everything in fact!
It has been a wonderful escape from the UK and we hope to return to Provence soon."
Sleeps 12
Simply but elegantly furnished and full of Provencal charm.
