So close to many of the Luberon’s iconic perched villages, Villa Grand Bonnieux is an archetypal Provençal mas that has been exquisitely renovated to welcome up to 10 guests (and four additional children) across its stylish air-conditioned suites and bedrooms. Gather on the garden terrace overlooking the beautiful heated swimming pool and lavender field.

Villa Grand Bonnieux’s three-hectare estate is simply idyllic. Not only are there swathes of lavender usually from June to late July, but also cypress trees, gorgeous terraces and the most wonderful views. The heated swimming pool stands proudly between the house and vast lavender field whilst there is a shaded terrace and barbecue for al-fresco dining in glorious surroundings. The boules court adds to the Provençal ambience and there is table tennis for all ages to enjoy.  

This luxurious and spacious Provençal abode is home to five individual suites or bedrooms scattered across the estate. The main living space features a fireplace, bar and arched doors leading to the garden terrace and there is a good-sized dining table for indoor feasts. The first suite is absolutely stunning with its own lounge, fully-equipped kitchen and curved stone stairs leading up to an impressive en suite bedroom with a terrace overlooking Bonnieux and Lacoste.

Elsewhere, there are two attractive courtyard bedrooms, both en suite, and two further suites, one with a private terrace with sunset views and another gorgeous suite overlooking Goult and Mont Ventoux, also benefitting from its own lounge and kitchen. Across the accommodation guests can expect beautiful design and magnificent grounds – this really is a special holiday home.

Arrange for fresh pastries to be delivered each morning to enjoy on the terrace before venturing to one of the many perched villages of the region – Lacoste and Bonnieux are both a short drive away whilst Roussillon, Gordes and Ménerbes are just a little further. Another picturesque village is Goult, slightly off the usual tourist trail but just as charming with its medieval lanes, café terraces and pretty little shops.

Cyclists will love being so near La Véloroute du Calavon, a popular voie-verte that follows a former railway line near the Calavon River passing lovely Luberon scenery – the Roman bridge, Pont Julien, is just over 5-minutes by bike. Meanwhile, make the most of the wonderful walking trails whether admiring the ochre landscapes near Roussillon and Rustrel or seeking shade in the cedar forest south of Bonnieux.

As you explore the Luberon come across excellent restaurants, delightful weekly markets, vineyards and wineries. You are also well placed for reaching L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue for antique shopping and Fontaine-de-Vaucluse for hiking, canoeing and kayaking. Meanwhile, Avignon and Aix-en-Provence are both amazing day trips for experiencing the rich history and captivating charm of Provence.
