If you want to stay in a cottage (always great value for families) take in the jaw dropping beauty of the Luberon valley and the atmosphere of Provence, then the Bastide Le Mourre could be the place for you. Le Mourre started off as a 17th century country estate, complete with windmill, granary, hayloft and even pigeon house. These outhouses, six in all and spread out amongst the ten acre estate with its vineyards and olive groves, now make up the independent cottages available to discerning guests. Hence we have the names such as “Le Pigeonner”, “Le Moulin”, etc. (see below).

Each may have its own unique style and individuality but common denominators include a terrace and fully equipped kitchen and uninterrupted vistas of the Luberon valley and cute villages of Oppede-le-Vieux, Menerbes and Gordes. Come to think of it every location in the Bastide de Mourre seems to have a great view, not least the swimming pool which not only overlooks the vineyards, but also the Luberon hills.

The accommodations are made of:
