Ideal for 4 people, the house can accommodate a 5th guest in the sofa-bed in the Mezzanine living room and a baby for whom all the necessary equipment is provided (cot, high chair and changing mattress). The comfortable bathroom is equipped with a large shower and a toilet.
A large East-exposed shaded terrace that is comfortably furnished will welcome you for meals around the barbecue and relaxing siesta in the soft sofa facing the perched village of Lurs.
You can relax while playing ping-pong or pushing your children on the swing before swimming in a large 6x10 m pool that used to be an old stone pond by the fountain in the shade of the old willows.

This is a gorgeous property with stunning views and a spacious home that feels very authentically French Country. It is rural and lovely and quiet, but a short drive to nearby villages for restaurants, grocery shopping and sight seeing. The home is surrounded by lavender and sunflower fields, as well as farm land. The dark sky nights and open sky are phenomenal for star gazing. The home is very well equipped and our hosts are lovely, charming people who were very helpful and informative, but always respectful of our privacy. It’s a wonderful place to relax, or stay busy with all the nearby activities. We would recommend it to travelers of all ages. Lena and Pat

If you are looking for peace and quiet with fabulous countryside views then this is the place.
We enjoyed our three weeks in this charming detached rural property and the owner could not have been more helpful. For 10 days our daughter, her partner and their two twins joined us and this proved to be very successful in every way. We would certainly recommend anyone who wants to get away from the madding crowd to stay in this cottage. A car is essential as the nearby villages and towns are not within walking distance and be warned the drive is over 1 kilometre long and something of a challenge for a low clearance vehicle!

A stunning house with outstanding views of the countryside
A beautiful, spacious and rustic building decorated impeccably, providing all of the amenities you could need. My family and I stayed for two weeks, we really just wanted somewhere we could spend time together and decompress from our busy lives. The grounds are so peaceful and brimming with flora and forna, surrounded by breathtaking views of the countryside. The outside terrace was the perfect space for us to hang out together with a comfy sofa, an outdoor kitchen and a BBQ area. The pool was amazing and provided real respite from the sun. Our hosts, Marielle and Philippe were so welcoming and friendly. They made us feel right at home. They were attentive and also informative in terms of where could visit during our stay. They were even kind enough to share some figs from their orchard with us! We would definitely return to this wonderful place!

Wonderful views
A tranquil location, with vistas that reach over fields of corn & melon to the beautiful village of Pierrerue and Lurs and the Alps beyond. Charming hosts Marielle & Phillip on site to give advice on local attractions including the vibrant Monday market at Forcalquier.

Sooooo schön!
Die Lage ist einfach ein Traum: Die kilometerweite Aussicht auf die Hügellandschaft, auf die Felder und Wälder, sowie die alten Dörfer war wunderbar beruhigend und erholsam. Geradezu Seelenbalsam, wenn man so eine Idylle nicht vor der eigenen Haustüre (Köln, flaches Rheinland) hat. Wir waren sofort verzaubert! Wir haben viele Ausflüge gemacht: ins Lure-Gebirge, auf den Markt in Forcalquier, nach Aix, nach Cassis ans Meer, in diverse mittelalterliche Dörfer... Die Gegend ist sehr abwechslungsreich. Das Haus ist großartig und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Es hat an nichts gefehlt. Die Abende haben wir dann mit einem guten Wein auf der Terrasse den Zikaden lauschend genossen (sogar Ende September noch). Der Hund hat sich ebenfalls wohl gefühlt und konnte die Spaziergänge und Wanderungen in der nahen Umgebung genießen. Wir waren auch sehr erfreut, wie viel mehr Insekten als bei uns daheim zu finden waren - hier scheint die Natur noch gesünder zu sein. Für uns war es einfach perfekt zum Abschalten und Ruhe tanken. Die fürsorgliche Gastgeberin ist herzlich, unaufdringlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Auch die Nachbarn sind alle super freundlich und sympathisch. Fazit: Ein richtiger Sehnsuchtsort, der auf jeden Fall ganz oben auf unserer Traumurlaube-Liste steht :-)

Nous avons séjourné une semaine dans ce petit paradis bien au calme. Le jardin est spacieux, bien entretenu et que dire de la vue splendide sur la Provence environnante. Au programme : jolis petits villages, marchés provençaux,…. La piscine est très agréable pour se rafraîchir en fin de journée. Marielle, la propriété est très agréable, très discrète et particulièrement attentionné pour que nos vacances se déroulent au mieux. A recommander sans hésiter.

Sublime paysage, calme incomparable et maison ancienne pleine de charme
D'abord, il y a l'arrivée depuis la petite route qui monte et qui nous laisse découvrir une petite colline à la douce beauté toscane, d'où se découpe la double silhouette de la propriété ancienne et de sa dépendance, puis il y a cette végétation provençale qui captive les yeux et le coeur, cyprès, oliviers, amandiers et figuiers en fruits, et enfin on est conquis par la maison elle-même, dont l'architecture typique et les matériaux anciens sont le principal attrait, avec sa terrasse couverte de vigne vierge et ouverte sur la vallée. Un régal au coeur d'une région particulièrement riche en vieilles pierres et villages perchés, en fromage de chèvres et en fruits, en forêts, garrigues et montagnes entre Lubéron, montagne de Lure et Verdon !

Wir waren zum zweiten Mal bei Marielle und haben unseren Aufenthalt wieder sehr genossen. Das Haus ist sauber, sehr gut ausgestattet, die Betten bequem. Auch unser Hund hat sich im weitläufigen Garten sehr wohlgefühlt. Wir lieben diese Region mit ihren Märkten, schönen Wanderwegen und den freundlichen Menschen. Forcalquier ist nicht weit weg, man findet dort alles, was man für einen gelungenen Urlaub benötigt. Marielle ist eine herzliche Gastgeberin, diskret, aber immer hilfsbereit. Wir kommen wieder!

Marielle est une hôte discrète et disponible tout au long du séjour. Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine dans cette maison, depuis laquelle nous avons pu visiter différents sites assez proches (prieuré de Ganagobie, Forcalquier, Lurs, Colorado provençal, L’observatoire…). De beaux souvenirs qui resteront longtemps !!

Traumhafte Provence
Wir hatten als vierköpfige Familie für zwei Wochen dieses schöne kleine typisch provenzalische Ferienhaus gemietet. Unser Hund durfte auch mit. Uns hat es in den zwei Wochen in dem im Landhausstil eingerichteten großzügigen Haus an nichts gefehlt. Wir haben die Ruhe einfach nur genossen und wenn es zu warm wurde, ging es einfach in den wunderschönen Pool. Falls es Fragen gab, war Marielle immer ansprechbar und hat geholfen wo sie konnte. Danke für einen unbeschwerten erholsamen Urlaub! Wir kommen bestimmt wieder!
