The house is situated in spectacular scenery in the Petit Luberon. Set in almost 4 acres of land the property is surrounded by the local ‘maquis’ with wild thyme, lavender and rosemary.

An outside full size table tennis table is stored here for easy access to the gravel where it stays in shade for half of the day. One of the trees in the garden has a wonderful ‘horse’ swing which children love.
