This three-storey manor house with attached two-storey annexe and separate caretaker’s house largely dates from the 16th century, though incredibly the site can trace its origins back to the times of the Romans.
It’s set within the boundaries of the Luberon Regional Nature Park, a 120,000-hectare, UNESCO-listed reserve of rugged limestone mountains, gently rolling hills, wild woodland and verdant valleys.
The buildings have all been beautifully and tastefully renovated to offer 800 square metres of elegant, contemporary living space, with mesmerising views in almost every direction.
The 18-acre estate offers total privacy and is surrounded by impressive, award-winning gardens. With 12 outdoor seating areas, guests can enjoy drinks, lunch and dinner in a variety of different areas.
The famous villages of Bonnieux, Roussillon, Loumarin, Gordes, Menerbes and Lacoste are only a short drive away.
Several of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’ (Most Beautiful Villages) are within striking distance of the house.
