We were totally blown away by the Luberon and this apartment is so well located to enjoy it. Every place we wanted to visit was around an hours drive or less (car is a must!) We didn't know much about Cucuron the local village but were pleasantly surprised to find it was idyllic with everything you need there. Lovely bakery and local wine shop, decent Spar, great little market on a Tuesday and cafes and restaurants. It was too cold to use the pool while we were there so having the hot tub was a real plus. The apartment itself is simple but comfortable with some nice designer touches. The kitchen has a Nespresso machine, big fridge freezer, dishwasher, no oven but a hob and lots of pots and pans. Everything you need to make simple meals. The benefit of staying in an apartment attached to a bigger house is the amazing grounds, poolside terrace and private terrace all with stunning views of the Luberon. We were even given lavender essential oil and olive oil produced on the grounds as a gift! We had a couple of small inconveniences, the internet wasn't working during our stay and the shower had a minor issue, none of which could be helped by Alex and she was extremely helpful and responsive the entire time. Her colleague Brigitte met us with the keys and showed us around, she was also great. Definitely recommend as an affordable base to explore this incredible area of France!
