Surrounded by olive groves, la Ferme des Oliviers is an elegant, renovated farmhouse outside of Gordes in Provence’s Luberon Valley. This private villa has all the modern amenities accommodating ten (10) guests in five (5) ensuite bedrooms in exquisite Provencal style.

The House:

The owners of la Ferme des Oliviers have created the setting for a magical holiday in Provence. At this refurbished farmhouse, gastronomy and relaxation unite. With entertaining large groups in mind, this home includes two lounges, a games room with a pool table, a dining room and a kitchen outfitted with a La Cornue induction range. The villa is spacious at 450sqm (4800sft) and meticulously decorated, allowing for gathering spaces and privacy as required. Set around a sheltered courtyard, la Ferme des Oliviers resembles a Provençal village square.

The bedrooms all have en-suite bathrooms and independent entrances looking onto the large terrace. Here are some details about each of the rooms:

• Bedroom 1 has a magnificent view of the garden, the field of olive trees, the Alpilles and the Luberon Valley.
• Bedroom 2 is the only ground-floor bedroom in the house. It has two doors onto the courtyard and the garden with a small, south-facing terrace.
• Bedroom 3 is at the back of the house with an enclosed terrace. Several windows give the room an architectural signature.
• Bedroom 4 is a cozy attic room of 34 sqm (365 sqft). Its large terrace includes a tub for a relaxing sunset soak. As the highest room in the house, occupants enjoy a breathtaking view of the olive grove, the Luberon and the Alpilles in the distance.
• Bedroom 5 is on the first floor and is ideal for those who must work during their holiday, as it has a desk.

The Property:

La Ferme des Oliviers is only a few minutes from Gordes, a gorgeous, perched village in the Luberon. The south-facing property has a magnificent pastoral view, with the Luberon massif in the background. With its infinity pool, Mediterranean garden and 240 olive trees, la Ferme des Oliviers is a dream place for a comfortable and relaxing stay surrounded by nature.

Outside spaces include an infinity pool, several seating areas and a kitchen garden (potager) where you can pick herbs and vegetables. Weather permitting, enjoy dining outside, shaded by an arbour, for meals among the olive trees. At any time of the day, there is a boules court for a game of pétanque. Everything at la Ferme des Oliviers is designed to ensure guests enjoy an unforgettable stay in Provence.

Ideal for:
Family get-togethers and reunions with friends.

Please note that we do not recommend the property for families with young children, as some terraces do not have railings. In addition, the pool only has a roller shutter for protection and is not equipped with an alarm.

For health and ecological reasons, rather than air-conditioning, the owners have chosen to equip the bedrooms with an advanced underfloor heating or cooling system for a balanced temperature of around 22°C in the summer.

A state-of-the-art Dyson fan filters and purifies air particles.

If you are electro-sensitive, each room has a button to disconnect from the WiFi.

There is also a billiard table, sound system and a massage room.

The plancha (electric grill top) works like a BBQ.

For evening players, the boules court has lights.
