Exceptionally charming stone-built cottage with its own swimming pool and garden, just 3 minutes drive from the hill-top village of Gordes, one of the most beautiful villages in France. The cottage is a part of a Provencal Mas, with the bigger house next door, which is also available for rent in the summer months. The cottage has an independent entrance, and is decorated to a very high standard.
Clients' comments
Having returned for some weeks now, I wanted to let you know that we very much enjoyed our week at Les Muriers near Gordes. Your web site information was very accurate and provided a good snapshot of the cottage. Les Muriers was in a great location and we had a wonderful time exploring the delights of Provence in summer. I would have no hesitation in recommending South France Villas to others - Mrs Watson, July 2008 |

This cottage is pleasantly and comfortably furnished, and has views beyond the garden of cypress trees and the foothills of the Luberon mountains.
There is an open plan living room/dining room (with a large convertible sofa bed 175cm x 200cm) with big sliding glass doors opening onto a terrace and the swimming pool. The kitchen area is equipped, amongst other things, with a large fridge/freezer, 2 electric hot-plates, a coffee maker, a toaster and a microwave and a washing machine and dryer.
Nicely furnished double bedroom (160cm x 200cm) and an ensuite shower room with wc. There is also a single bed mattress available if needed by a small child. |

There is a terrace furnished with a table and chairs plus two sunbeds, and two chaise-longue. Beyond the 8mx4m pool (alarm system) is a lawn with surrounding flower beds. A parasol next to the pool for shade.
The cottage is not detached but is a part of a bigger provencal 'mas' with it's own entrance around the back. The 'mas' next door is also a rental property with it's own pool. The two properties are independent of each other however, there is a metal gate (normally shut) between the two houses for when the owner is there with her family. The two gardens are separated by a high cypress hedge, and some green fencing. Some noise from next door may carry, especially when the pool is in use.
There is a very nice private stone walled garden without any 'vis a vis' round the back of the pool, with a wooden pergola over the side terrace.
