Chateau de la Loubiere, Provence, France

Sleeps 4 to 20 in 3 houses

La Grange sleeps 10
Sebastian's House sleeps 6
Les Platanes sleeps 4

The three houses of La Loubiere can be rented separately or together, making an ideal location for families or groups of friends of up to 20 people who wish to holiday together, whether it be for a celebration, family reunion or just to get together.

Each of the three houses have been lovingly restored by the owners to provide modern facilities, whilst retaining the character and original features of the old buildings, with stone walls, beams and tiled floors. The interiors are furnished to a high standard with beautiful fabrics, comfortable furniture and good quality bed linen and sumptuous towels. The largest of the three, 'La Grange' (10 pers/5 bedrooms/4 bathrooms) has a vast open plan kitchen, dining and living area of 110 sq. metres, so this tends to be the ‘hub’ for everyone to get together. The kitchen in ‘La Grange' is also equipped so that up to twenty people can prepare, cook and dine together, with two large tables seating twenty. There is plenty of outdoor space to dine 'al fresco’ for twenty, with a built-in bbq.

The fenced pool (12.5m x 6m/39ft x 20ft) has comfortable teak loungers with cushions to relax on (pool towels are provided) and is surrounded by over two acres of grounds, with views of lavender, thyme and rosemary covered hills.

The surrounding area is grass with swings and space for ball games. Guests have unlimited access to the tennis court, which has been resurfaced in 2017 and is set in the grounds of the chateau. There are some tennis racquets which guests are welcome to borrow, also, a table tennis table and boules.

La Loubiere is a perfect base from where to hike, cycle/mountain bike and for horse riding with its proximity to the Durance River and the Luberon hills. Surrounded by beautiful villages reached by meandering country roads, with daily markets.

For golf enthusiasts, there are two courses of a high standard less than 30 minutes away. Pont Royal, designed by Seve Ballesteros and Golf du Luberon, highly recommended for its course and stunning views.
