villa enclosed in 30 hectares of private grounds within 5 minutes of
Gordes, in a highly exceptional location. The village of Murs, a

"Provençal Colorado" (world-famous ochre mines), is just 10
minutes' drive away.

the Petit Luberon mountain and as far as the Alpilles, this incredible
property is an ideal retreat for a group of up to 16 people, which it
can comfortably accommodate in its 600 square metres of living
area and 8 bedrooms, 6 of which are ensuite, the other 2 sharing a
bathroom.
The privacy and the calm surroundings genuinely contribute to the

spaces.

The foundations of this large property date back as far as the 12th century. It was rebuilt in the mid-1900's and fully restored in 2010. Original touches such as the circular turret highlight
this vacation villa's exceptional charm and character.
The back of the house, with its delightful garden, is just as welcoming and relaxing as the front, receiving sunlight in the late afternoon and evening.
Out behind the kitchen, on the west side of the property, there is a sheltered terrace with two wooden tables that can seat 8 people each or can be joined together to seat 14 for al
fresco dining.
Decorated in a bright, modern Provençal style, the living room is light and open, with beautiful views, leading straight out to the patio by the pool.
