Maison Ballerine - Eight Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 21

Maison Ballerine is an elegant country villa set within walking distance to the idyllic village of Bonnieux in the Provençal region of Luberon.

This beautiful home is air-conditioned throughout and features eight gorgeous bedrooms, each with their own WC and bathroom. Step outside and enjoy long summer days in the stunning gardens with a spacious heated swimming pool, majestic trees and terraces for leisurely al-fresco dining after preparing feasts in the pizza oven. The possibility to use a sauna and hot tub adds a touch of luxury whilst families will adore the play area with ping-pong, table football and more. Admire the traditional borie, beautifully lit up in the evening, or go for a walk through the large estate with woodland and summer lavender.

Just a short walk via the country road, historic Bonnieux is a delightful spot with a charming Friday morning market as well as a handful of characterful restaurants and shops. From the very top, gaze out at mesmerising views of the Luberon, even as far as Mont Ventoux, and you may also be able to see nearby Gordes and Roussillon.

If you wish to explore further afield, visit the antique stores of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue or the markets of Avignon in this glorious part of Provence.
