In a very huge Provencal landscape, you will hear silence and cicadas

This small stone house fully renovated in a sober and classic style offers great comfort with 2 large bedrooms equipped with high quality beds convertible into a large bed or single beds.
Ideal for 4 people, the house can accommodate a 5th guest in the sofa-bed in the Mezzanine living room and a baby for whom all the necessary equipment is provided (cot, high chair and changing mattress). The comfortable bathroom is equipped with a large shower and a toilet.
A large East-exposed shaded terrace that is comfortably furnished will welcome you for meals around the barbecue and relaxing siesta in the soft sofa facing the perched village of Lurs.
You can relax while playing ping-pong or pushing your children on the swing before swimming in a large 6x10 m pool that used to be an old stone pond by the fountain in the shade of the old willows.
You can have nice holidays without leaving the property but if you want to go sightseeing and discover our region, in a 50 km perimeter, according to your wishes you can discover the splendid Verdon Gorge (swimming, canyoning, sailing, pedalo, etc.), the Plateau de Valensole and its exceptional lavender fields, the Lure Mountain, Saint-Michel-l’Observatoire where observations of night sky are offered to visitors, the great historical villages of the Luberon (Gordes, Lourmarin, Bonnieux, Lacoste, etc.), the remarkable Château de Sauvan dating from the 18th century and the Sisteron Citadel where take place many concerts. If you go a bit further, you can visit Aix-en-Provence, Marseille or Avignon.
If you are interested in industrial life, you will visit the cosmetics factory “L’Occitane” or many mills that produce famous olive oils (for example: Arizzi in Les Mées). Finally, if a higher view can seduce you, a balloon flight with delight you.

Picture Postcard!
This is a gorgeous property with stunning views and a spacious home that feels very authentically French Country. It is rural and lovely and quiet, but a short drive to nearby villages for restaurants, grocery shopping and sight seeing. The home is surrounded by lavender and sunflower fields, as well as farm land. The dark sky nights and open sky are phenomenal for star gazing. The home is very well equipped and our hosts are lovely, charming people who were very helpful and informative, but always respectful of our privacy. It’s a wonderful place to relax, or stay busy with all the nearby activities. We would recommend it to travelers of all ages. Lena and Pat

Relaxing Location
What a relaxing and peaceful location. Marielle and Philippe are lovely, welcoming people and it was a joy to stay at their holiday cottage. The views are beautiful, unspoilt and it is so very quiet. We would love to return.

What a week!
We are so happy we found this amazing property in the middle of a beautiful landscape. We enjoyed the silence, the views, nice walks, the market and chatting with the very warm and helpful host Marielle. For us it was the perfect trip to relax and enjoy nature and silence.

If you are looking for peace and quiet with fabulous countryside views then this is the place.
We enjoyed our three weeks in this charming detached rural property and the owner could not have been more helpful. For 10 days our daughter, her partner and their two twins joined us and this proved to be very successful in every way. We would certainly recommend anyone who wants to get away from the madding crowd to stay in this cottage. A car is essential as the nearby villages and towns are not within walking distance and be warned the drive is over 1 kilometre long and something of a challenge for a low clearance vehicle!

A stunning house with outstanding views of the countryside
A beautiful, spacious and rustic building decorated impeccably, providing all of the amenities you could need. My family and I stayed for two weeks, we really just wanted somewhere we could spend time together and decompress from our busy lives. The grounds are so peaceful and brimming with flora and forna, surrounded by breathtaking views of the countryside. The outside terrace was the perfect space for us to hang out together with a comfy sofa, an outdoor kitchen and a BBQ area. The pool was amazing and provided real respite from the sun. Our hosts, Marielle and Philippe were so welcoming and friendly. They made us feel right at home. They were attentive and also informative in terms of where could visit during our stay. They were even kind enough to share some figs from their orchard with us! We would definitely return to this wonderful place!

Wonderful views
A tranquil location, with vistas that reach over fields of corn & melon to the beautiful village of Pierrerue and Lurs and the Alps beyond. Charming hosts Marielle & Phillip on site to give advice on local attractions including the vibrant Monday market at Forcalquier.

Sublime paysage, calme incomparable et maison ancienne pleine de charme
D'abord, il y a l'arrivée depuis la petite route qui monte et qui nous laisse découvrir une petite colline à la douce beauté toscane, d'où se découpe la double silhouette de la propriété ancienne et de sa dépendance, puis il y a cette végétation provençale qui captive les yeux et le coeur, cyprès, oliviers, amandiers et figuiers en fruits, et enfin on est conquis par la maison elle-même, dont l'architecture typique et les matériaux anciens sont le principal attrait, avec sa terrasse couverte de vigne vierge et ouverte sur la vallée. Un régal au coeur d'une région particulièrement riche en vieilles pierres et villages perchés, en fromage de chèvres et en fruits, en forêts, garrigues et montagnes entre Lubéron, montagne de Lure et Verdon !

Wieder wunderschön
Wir waren zum zweiten Mal bei Marielle und haben unseren Aufenthalt wieder sehr genossen. Das Haus ist sauber, sehr gut ausgestattet, die Betten bequem. Auch unser Hund hat sich im weitläufigen Garten sehr wohlgefühlt. Wir lieben diese Region mit ihren Märkten, schönen Wanderwegen und den freundlichen Menschen. Forcalquier ist nicht weit weg, man findet dort alles, was man für einen gelungenen Urlaub benötigt. Marielle ist eine herzliche Gastgeberin, diskret, aber immer hilfsbereit. Wir kommen wieder!

Paysage de carte postale !
Un vrai petit coin de paradis, au calme, dans une propriété parfaitement entretenue. La maison est fonctionnelle et a énormément de charme, on s’y sent vite comme chez soi. Marielle est une hôte discrète et disponible tout au long du séjour. Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine dans cette maison, depuis laquelle nous avons pu visiter différents sites assez proches (prieuré de Ganagobie, Forcalquier, Lurs, Colorado provençal, L’observatoire…). De beaux souvenirs qui resteront longtemps !!
