Description

Nestled in an enchanting private pine and oak forest, this very pretty villa is a dream for those wishing to escape the daily grind and have a totally relaxing provencal break. The villa was completely refurbished in 2013 and manages to mix the new with the old: modern on the inside and typically "Provençal" on the outside. The newly built pool (15m x 4.5m) is a modern version of a traditional "bassin" and comes with an innovative filter system to reduce chemicals and a robot that does all the hard cleaning work. Hammocks and sun loungers are provided along with pool towels and a selection of outdoor toys (boules/ badminton). Lavender, thyme and rosemary grow in abundance in the newly landscaped garden and around the enormous terrace. A large outdoor dinning table under the pergola is perfect for al-fresco lunches on the terrace, while an outdoor "sitting room" means that you can spend all your days outside. But what makes Les Fauquieres so special and totally different to any other villa is its stunning forest location. Oaks, pines and poplars grow on ochre land and the forest is the perfect playground for kids wanting to build camps and grown ups wanting to have long walks or bike rides. For those who love antiques we are 40 minutes away from the world famous Isle sur La Sorgue antiques market and there are "brocante" sales weekly in the surrounding villages. We are a 10 minute drive from Apt and its famous Saturday market.
