Overview

Just five minutes by car from the picturesque villages of Bonnieux and Lacoste, Le Refuge de Provence is nestled in the sun-drenched countryside of the Luberon, surrounded by unspoilt nature and rolling vineyards. This timeless Provençal escape is where rustic charm meets effortless elegance. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Luberon hills and facing the majestic Mont Ventoux, this 18th-century stone estate unfolds like a postcard from Provence: cherry orchards, vineyards stretching across the landscape, a gently flowing spring, and the soft glow of Provence light.

This enchanting property comprises a beautifully restored traditional farmhouse and a charming guest house, offering both flexibility and privacy for families or friends travelling together. Every corner is imbued with Provençal soul, with exposed beams, natural materials and soothing tones that echo the serenity of the surrounding countryside and vineyards. Accommodating up to eight guests across five elegant bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, the property combines modern comfort with classic Provençal style. Air-conditioned bedrooms ensure cool, restful nights after sun-filled days spent exploring nearby hilltop villages and vineyard-lined roads.

Outside, the expansive 15m × 7m private pool becomes the heart of summer days, bordered by loungers and shaded terrace overlooking the natural landscape. Fed by a natural spring and immersed in perfectly peaceful surroundings, the pool and gardens provide a secluded haven beneath endless blue skies, framed by vineyards and unspoilt natural scenery.

So close to Bonnieux and Lacoste yet blissfully secluded, Le Refuge de Provence captures the effortless joie de vivre of Provence, a place to savour long summer days, enjoy local wines and produce, and watch the light drift across vineyards and the rolling Luberon countryside.
