Mas St Louis - Traditional Stone Farmhouse in Luberon
Cottage with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 8, Garden, Swimming Pool
Mas St Louis is a great property and the countryside, tranquillity and views surrounding it are stunning. This is a traditional stone built farmhouse in the very heart of the Luberon which can very comfortably accommodate 8 people.
For most visitors, the thick stone walls and traditional shutters at the windows will be much welcomed to help you stay cool. That said, the same thick stone walls and the traditional fireplace inside the house would also make the house feel lovely and warm and cosy for winter evenings as well.
This property offers a good standard of accommodation, tranquility, tradition, privacy and is right in the midst of lovely countryside.

The house has an unusual setting on the side of a hill so the property is laid out over three levels and with 120m², there’s plenty of space.
At ground level there is a very well equipped kitchen with most things that you will need eg Fridge, freezer, oven, microwave, washing machine, dishwasher etc. There is a smaller dining table and chairs here, the main one being in the lounge area.
The lounge is reached via a few steps from the kitchen and here you’ll find a couple of comfy sofas, a television and a lovely fireplace for the cooler evenings in winter time.
There are four good bedrooms consisting of a couple of double rooms and a couple of rooms with single beds. There are plenty of bathroom facilities; three WCs, one bathroom, one shower room and another shower room outside.
In summer time, the outside is likely to be where you spend most of your time and it doesn’t disappoint! There is a lovely terrace just outside the kitchen and lounge doors and just a few steps away is your very own 8 metre X 4 metre swimming pool.
There is a second terrace as well if you fancy a change of scenery and as well as the 1500m of land around you (there are no neighbours in sight), you have the whole valley all to yourselves! There is obviously plenty of garden furniture for either relaxing by the pool or dining al fresco.
Down to the nitty-gritty. Towels and bed linen can be supplied if required at an additional fee of 8 euros per person and if you don’t fancy doing too much housework, the end of stay cleaning service can also be supplied for a fee of 50 euros. There is also a damage deposit payable locally of 500 euros.
