Vacation Rental Description
The 5-acre property features an old mill, a former dovecote and the owner's house and borders a stream in the Vallée d'Aigues, between Aix-en-Provence and Manosque. The area is in the Luberon Regional Natural Park and it is renowned for its small market towns, craft museums, Renaissance castles and gardens, music festivals, prize-winning vineyards and superb walks leading to medieval chapels. Daytrips to Gorges du Verdon, Gordes, Avignon, Pont du Gard and Camargue are easily done, as well as to beaches near Cassis and Marseille. All shops are found at nearby villages and small towns.
The cottage is ideally suited for families with young children and teenagers who will enjoy the big pool and the ball games available on site and many other sporting activities such as tennis, golf, cycling, mountain biking and walking in the Luberon Park.
The tower, called "Le Pigeonnier" (dovecote), has been linked to another small round tower and a former sheep pen to form a picturesque cottage with three areas on different levels linked by small passages and low doors (total floor area : about 55 m²). Heating and water heating is by electricity. All rooms are furnished and beds are prepared for your comfort. Cot and some accessories for babies are available as an option.
On the ground floor in the main part, you will find the kitchen and bathroom, and the two main bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with 2 single beds. The tower itself has three levels : the dining room is downstairs, with the lounge just above. There are books and family games to enjoy, plus a Pal/Secam colour TV with incorporated video recorder. The third bedroom is on the top level (mezzanine), with a single bed.
The small private garden is enclosed and has many bushes, flowerbeds and wall-climbing plants, and a lawn area. The stone barbecue area is shaded by lilac trees and furnished with a garden table and chairs. Two lounging-chairs are available.
The cottage is not accessible to handicapped people because of the different levels and steps inside the buildings. It is a non-smoking accommodation and pets are not allowed. Parking is outdoors, in front of the garden.
