Experience the beauty of Provence whilst staying in a converted barn with contemporary interiors and the most wonderful grounds, only a short drive from the much-loved Luberon village of Ménerbes.

Set in the countryside, Villa Cabernet benefits from vast land which includes large lawns, woodland, a vineyard, boules and a stunning 17m long heated swimming pool with views as far as Mont Ventoux. Relax on the decked poolside terrace or create a feast to enjoy with family and friends in the superb pool house’s kitchen. There’s also al-fresco dining at its best on the south-facing terrace by the villa.

The interiors of Villa Cabernet are bright and modern yet with ample character as well as plenty of space. There are three double bedrooms in the main house and space for a seventh and eighth guest in the separate pool house, around 60m from the villa, where there is a sofa-bed or mezzanine bedroom, perhaps ideal for older teens. Out of the three bathrooms, the one with a walk-in shower and bath with jacuzzi jets is sure to impress your guests.

It’s only a short drive to the charming village of Ménerbes, where Peter Mayes’ ‘A Year in Provence’ was once set. As well as steep cobbled lanes with restaurants and cafes, there’s a vibrant weekly market and beautiful views of cherry orchards and vineyards in the surrounding landscapes.

Other Luberon gems nearby include Gordes, Lacoste and Bonnieux whilst slightly further afield you can spend the day visiting the antique stores of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, canoeing along the river from Fontaine-de-Vaucluse or admiring the UNESCO World Heritage sites of historic Avignon.
