Close to cycling, horse riding, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 22-minute drive to Luberon Regional Park or the 8-minute drive to Paul Cezanne's Studio (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return to this 1938-sq-ft vacation home, you can unwind by the outdoor pool or sip a drink in the hot tub; you may also like the garden and deck or patio. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi, cable/satellite TV, and DVD player.

This 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom rental features a BBQ grill, a fireplace, air conditioning, and a desk. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a lobster pot. And because there's access to laundry facilities, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
