Luxury Provence holiday rental home
This small but perfectly formed Menerbes village house hangs above the vineyards and orchards below, and faces the lovely Luberon Mountain opposite. Even when you are in bed there are three different views to choose from - the Luberon Mountain, down the valley to the sunset, and over the rooftops of Menerbes. |

When this house was owned by a medieval farmer, he and his family would have happily lived on two floors with the pigs underneath. But they must have been much smaller then, so I have taken out the upper storey and put the bedroom and bathroom on a mezzanine level. This means all the light and glorious views pour into the whole house. I do not know how I was allowed to do it in such a carefully protected village, but the windows that open onto the Luberon are remarkably generous. Eight feet high, and then there is the balcony beyond, with unmatched views, suspended over the full glory of Provence. The sun terrace opens out from the living room, giving you a bigger plot of Menerbes real estate to stretch out in, sunbathe, pile on the pounds, take in the views. |
