LOURMARIN · FRANCE
An elegant Provençal country house with gardens and a pool where you can relax and enjoy the best of Provence in total serenity.
Its picture-postcard setting beckons you to slow down and savour each moment: enjoy a glass of rosé al fresco, surrender to siestas serenaded by cicadas, wander leisurely beneath the dappled shade of plane trees... Away from the bustle, you’ll discover the rhythm of the changing seasons: summer’s vivid lavender giving way to autumn’s blazing ochres; spring’s vibrant symphony to winter’s peaceful clarity. Amble blissfully through the Luberon’s villages, enchanted by their colourful shutters, roofs of weathered tiles and the genuine warmth of residents.
The nearest airport is Marseille (1h15 by car), with Avignon and Aix-en-Provence also accessible by TGV. A car is recommended for exploring the Luberon and its surrounding villages.
The Luberon is a landscape made for wandering — ochre villages, lavender fields, cherry orchards and ancient dry-stone walls. Lourmarin, Gordes, Roussillon and Ménerbes are all within easy reach. There are local markets most mornings, cycling routes through the valleys and, at the right time of year, the lavender plateau of the Valensole to the east.
The lavender season typically runs from late June through to early August, peaking in July. The fields around Valensole and Sault are the most spectacular, though the Luberon itself is full of lavender in bloom during this period.
Late spring (May–June) and early autumn (September–October) are the finest months — long light, warm temperatures and the countryside at its most vivid. July and August bring heat and more visitors; March and April are quieter, with almond and cherry blossom replacing the summer palette.
It is, in fact, one of the great food destinations of France. The Luberon's markets overflow with local produce — truffles, olives, tomatoes, goat's cheese — and the region's restaurants take their terroir seriously. Capelongue's kitchens, for their part, have been recognised among the finest in Provence.
Capelongue and Le Galinier both lend themselves naturally to families — large gardens, open grounds and enough space for children to roam freely. Le Moulin, set right in the heart of Lourmarin village, suits those who want to be immersed in local life: the market, the café terraces, the rhythm of a Provençal town on a summer morning.
Both are villages of the southern Luberon, separated by about 10 km. Bonnieux sits higher, its terraced streets commanding views across the valley. Lourmarin is flatter and slightly livelier, with a Friday market and a château. Both are good bases — the choice is partly one of temperament.
