About this property

6-bedroom house with heated pool and superb views in the Luberon

This spacious house provides comfortable accommodation for 12-14 people Located in the hills above the lovely, bustling town of Apt, there are breathtaking views of Saignon, one of the most beautiful villages in the Luberon. The house is an oasis of calm, in a beautiful, tranquil location. The pool is heated from the beginning of April to the end of October. A feature of the house is the small cabin by the pool, which sleeps two and has its own bathroom. Air conditioning in the house is provided in the two upper bedrooms and the main living-dining room.
The 3,300 m² garden is divided naturally into separate sections, which provide opportunities for quiet and relaxation as well as having petanque court. The kitchen is well equipped with an induction hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, Nespresso, large fridge freezer and a drinks cooler. There are two televisions, the internet connection is fibre optic, and the mobile phone reception is very good.
Six bedrooms are available, five in the house and the sixth in the cabin. In the downstairs living room, there is a convertible sofa which can be used as an additional double bed. All bed linen and towels are provided.
A feature of the house is the long south-facing balcony which benefits from the shade from the trees and has beautiful views of Saignon. It is the perfect for spot for breakfast or morning coffee.
We have been coming to the Luberon for the past 35 years. We have learnt to appreciate the advantages of a house like ours which accommodates big groups of mixed ages well. Teenagers can make their own way into town which is only ten minutes’ walk away. Adults can do the same and avoid what can become a tyranny of having to drive everywhere to get shopping or a coffee. Apt, as the capital of the Luberon, retains a genuine charm and year-round life, whilst hosting the most famous Saturday market in the region.
The lane by the house is at the start of a designated walk into the Luberon hills. The most famous villages of the Luberon - Bonnieux, Lacoste, Roussillon, Gordes etc - are typically within 20 minutes’ drive. The area is great for cycling and we make our own bicycles available. There are also a many other activities in the wider area.

Une superbe semaine de Noël à Apt.
Nous nous sommes retrouvés en famille chez John à Apt pour la semaine de Noël. Les instructions fournies préalablement étaient très claires, l'accueil chaleureux avec en bonus un sapin et des décorations de Noël. La maison est très fonctionnelle et il y fait bon vivre. Nous ne nous sommes jamais sentis à l'étroit pourtant nous étions 13. Le sympathique cabanon séparé où 2 personnes peuvent loger est un plus. A noter aussi le superbe boulodrome. La région est splendide; nous avons eu la chance d'avoir du soleil et un grand ciel bleu pratiquement toute la semaine, ce qui a permis de bien en profiter. Nous recommandons cette location sans hésiter.

Parfait séjour dans une agreable maison
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans cette magnifique maison parfaitement située dans les hauteurs d'Apt avec de très jolies vues sur les colines alentour. John, le propriétaire, et Jennifer, ont été aux petits soins avec nous et ont fait en sorte que le séjour se passe à merveille. La maison est parfaitement équipée, et nous avons même pu profiter des vélos pour faire quelques escapades dans les environs. A noter que les vélos sont de très bonne qualité, ce qui est assez rare dans les gîtes en location. On reviendra tres certainement dans les années à venir!

1 semaine à Apt - aout 2023
Contact avec les propriétaires parfait. Super accueil sur place de Jennifer. Maison idéale pour notre groupe de 10 (2 familles avec enfants de plus de 18 ans) avec chacun sa place, une cuisine parfaitement équipée et nous avons même fait des pizzas dans le four à pain du jardin :)) Grosse chaleur donc difficile d’aller se promener… heureusement la belle piscine a permis de contenter tout le monde ainsi que le terrain de pétanque et la table de Ping Pong. Région superbe et petits villages voisins très sympas avec de très bonnes adresses transmises par John :) Nous recommandons chaleureusement cette maison !

About the host

Host profile image
We live in London and love France, especiially the Luberon which we have been visiting for years. Our children and grandchildren of all ages love the house and the area.

Why they chose this property

The house is extremely versatile. You can easily accommodate 12 or more people whilst for smaller group of 3-4 people the upstairs works extremely well. The house was the first house built in 1969 and the owners chose the best site with amazing views. Originally the owners lived upstairs. Later a new garage was added to the side and rooms established downstairs. The cabin in the garden adds a great additional dimension to the property. We have been making the houe more green by adding solar panels and air-source heat pumps for the airconditiong and the pool.

What makes this property unique

Children and teenagers love the cabin. They spend the evenings there and adults can enjoy the house and eating area outside. The proximity to Apt means teenage children can walk down the hill and enjoy the town and the market whenever they want. This makes for a much more relaxing holiday for everyone and frees you from having to get in a car to go anyway. We love the cycling to Saignon wehere we go most days for morning coffee - and our bikes are availble to all.
