General Description

 

·         Villa St Elisabeth faces south with a magnificent view, across a vast and spectacular private valley planted with truffle oaks, yet it is only two minutes from the village of Buoux in the Luberon National Park.
 
·         Seemingly miles from anywhere with its wide-open spaces, tranquility and wildlife, this lovely stone house is equidistant between the market town of Apt and the medieval and exquisite town of Lourmarin with its galleries and restaurants.
 
·         The surrounding countryside is very well known for rock climbing and hiking and with a fabulous old Chateau and an extraordinary medieval fort nearby, the area is also a painter and photographers’ delight.
 
·         Nestled on 120 acres of land with lavender fields, truffle oaks and natural bush land, Villa St Elisabeth is close what one imagines in the picture books of Provence.
 
·         It is a delightful two story stone house with sage green shutters and picture windows and doors framing beautiful views.
 
·         Inside the house are thick stone walls, tiled floors and exposed beams of traditional Provencal architecture.
 
·         Because of its position, light floods the house from sunrise to sunset.
 
·         There is also a pretty pool set away from the main house and a charming summer house with a guest room. Both also have marvelous views.
 
·         Please ask about our discounts for two week bookings.
