We have been coming to the Luberon for the past 35 years. We have learnt to appreciate the advantages of a house like ours which accommodates big groups of mixed ages well. Teenagers can make their own way into town which is only ten minutes’ walk away. Adults can do the same and avoid what can become a tyranny of having to drive everywhere to get shopping or a coffee. Apt, as the capital of the Luberon, retains a genuine charm and year-round life, whilst hosting the most famous Saturday market in the region.
The lane by the house is at the start of a designated walk into the Luberon hills. The most famous villages of the Luberon - Bonnieux, Lacoste, Roussillon, Gordes etc - are typically within 20 minutes’ drive. The area is great for cycling and we make our own bicycles available. There are also a many other activities in the wider area.
