Description  

The traditional construction, with thick stone walls, and shuttered windows, protects the house's inhabitants from the heat of the Provencal summer sun. The south facing enclosed courtyard captures the sun and warmth for al fresco dining whilst providing shelter from the occasional Mistral. A westerly facing terrace offers vantage points to enjoy an evening aperitif whilst watching the sun set over the Luberon mountains.

It also remains fresh in summer and enjoys light breezes which make the temperature very comfortable. The house is surrounded by a landscaped garden, designed by Nicole de Vesian, the celebrated Provencal garden designer, and is set amongst vines and cherry trees At the entry to the house is a garden area planted with olive trees and plane trees where one can play petanque over a pastis.
