About this house rental
The "ancienne école" summer rental is the former elementary school in the small village of RUSTREL in the Luberon region of Provence. It has been lovingly renovated and sleeps up to 8 people, offering all the comforts you could wish for.
The website
The “ancienne école” is located in the village and offers plenty of privacy thanks to its elevated position. The terrace, garden, and swimming pool face south and offer a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. You can even see the “Colorado Provençal,” a smaller version of the American Colorado that has made Rustrel famous throughout the region. The garden, planted with cypress trees and lavender, is fully fenced, and the pool has an electric cover.
The school’s former covered playground is now a comfortable patio with a large sofa and armchairs, where you can hear the water from the nearby fountain and enjoy the shade.
The house
The house sleeps up to 8 people: the entrance leads through the hallway into the living area, which features a fireplace and a large television screen. On the other side of the hallway, you enter a fully equipped kitchen and dining area with a wood-burning stove. The stairs lead to an open reading room, from which you can access two bedrooms on each side (on one side, two double bedrooms and a shared separate shower; on the other side, two other bedrooms—one with two single beds and an en suite shower, and one with a queen-size bed and a separate bathroom). The house is decorated with antique furniture, art pieces and paintings, as well as designer sofas and armchairs.
The surrounding area
In our village, you’ll find a delicious “boulangerie” (bakery), a grocery store with local products, and even a post office! There are also two restaurants, and the bakery serves meals as well. The nearest town with all the necessary shops for daily life is Apt, a 10-minute drive from Rustrel. On Saturday mornings, there’s the region’s best market featuring local produce (wine, cheese, vegetables, fruit) and arts & crafts. People come from all over the region to check it out.
Around Rustrel—within a 25-mile radius—you can visit the most fantastic villages of the Luberon, such as Ménerbes, Gordes (as seen in “Emily in Paris”), Bonnieux, Lourmarin, Lacoste (home to the Savannah College of Art and Design), Isle-sur-la-Sorgue (famous for its antique shops), and Fontaine-de-Vaucluse.
