This charming home in the glittering area of Provence boasts traditional French shutters, a terracotta roof, and a gorgeous terraced garden full with flowers and lavender.

Tucked in amongst the trees just off a quiet country road that leads to a nearby village is La Pergola. Featuring traditional French shutters, a terracotta roof and a beautiful terraced garden filled with flowers and lavender, this pretty house is a real haven within the sparkling region of Provence.

Oozing charm and personality, the owners have taken great care to create a homey yet elegant holiday villa. Up to 8 guests can be accommodated across four stunning en-suite bedrooms, two of which are downstairs and two of which are upstairs. All rooms feature high-end bedding while the master bedroom also enjoys access to a private terrace.

On the ground floor you will find a delightful living area with bright pops of colour, comfy sofas and paintings decorating the walls, plus a sleek kitchen with a wooden dining table. Open the glass doors and allow the glorious sunlight and floral scents to flood into this open-plan space.

Outside, the pergola-covered terrace is one of the best spots to admire the fine gardens and views of the countryside beyond. With the fairy lights on in the evening, it’s a magical setting for dining al-fresco. Take advantage of some of the additional services on offer and hire a private chef or enjoy some wine-tasting. From the terrace, steps lead either down to the luxurious pool area or around the corner to a lovely little boules court.

The local village, with its cobbled streets, fountains and ancient ramparts, is just a short drive or 25-minute walk from the villa. Here you will find a handful of good restaurants, cafés and shops as well as Farmer’s market on Saturday mornings.

This region is known for its colourful landscapes and the area surrounding Villa La Pergola is no exception. The dazzling purple lavender fields of Sault epitomise summer in Provence, while the Luberon mountains, River Sorgue and Rhone Valley offer exquisite natural beauty. Explore on foot, by bike or hire canoes and paddle along the river, soaking up the scenery as you go.

Medieval Carpentras is just 9km away and boasts a popular street market, while L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is 11km by car and is definitely worth a visit for its canals, waterside cafés and antique markets.

Drive 40 minutes to the city of Avignon, the centre of which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Brimming with history and culture, it’s a brilliant place to spend the day during your holiday in sunny Provence.
