Roomy and inviting, the 9-bedroom, 3-story house is configured in such a way that even large groups have privacy and feel at home. Guests relish magnificent, uninterrupted views of Grand Luberon mountain range from the terrace, poolside and the gardens. Eight, large double bedrooms with en-suite full bathrooms (toilet, sink and shower) are sure to please the adults in your party. A dormitory for eight children with its own bathroom (two showers, toilet and double sink) is a hit with our youngest guests. Spacious, indoor common areas include a stylish, living room, which comfortably seats 11 and opens to a fully-equipped modern kitchen with farmhouse table, a dining room, and a large TV room with 6-meter L-shaped couch and smart TV equipped with Netflix and DVD player.
