Vaucluse

Feel welcome in one of three stylish boltholes with a lovely pool, views between the pines to Mt Ventoux and truffle hunting nearby

A peaceful setting among plane trees and oleander for this traditional mas with separate apartments and a gypsy caravan, pool and gardens

In truffle, lavender and olive oil country, a dreamy wine château with terraced gardens, run by hosts whose happiness is infectious

Provençale-meets-English country house to great effect – cycle Mont Ventoux, walk to the monastery, visit Roman towns and vineyards

A large and light house sitting by itself in lovely countryside with a big pool, maturing gardens and superb views up to Saignon on the hill

A sensitively-restored three storey house set high in the hills overlooking Mt Ventoux and the Vaucluse plateau and in a dark sky area

A traditional, very French, family-run hotel hidden in a wooded valley with lovely views from the large terrace and a hillside pool

Come for a watery setting by the crystal clear canal (with canoe!) and an elegant house packed with interest, lovely art, much comfort
