Surrounded by the vineyards of the Côtes de Luberon, and located just outside of the lovely village of Gordes, this 17th century vacation home for rent in Provence was discovered and redesigned by Dutch natives who fell in love with the region and the house. Consisting of several interconnected buildings set behind a high wall, the manor house’s restoration has preserved the historic aspects of the structures while the interiors have a fresh contemporary update. The large wood timber beams, quarried stone and whitewashed limestone give it a rustic feel which is paired with an eclectic combination of contemporary and the antique furnishings and decor. The spacious library and sitting room is stylish and bright and features a lovely stone fireplace that anchors the room adjacent to the modern eat-in kitchen and dining area. The double bedroom is a cozy retreat for two and includes an en suite bath with a luxurious deep soaking tub.
The large central courtyard and garden area is a private little oasis with lounging areas and a great open pit BBQ for dining alfresco.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Wifi throughout, projector with DVD player, stereo audio system with CD player. Housekeeping and laundry facilities.
