La Forêt des Cèdres du Luberon offers a serene retreat surrounded by towering cedar trees and the enchanting landscapes of southern France. This idyllic sanctuary allows guests to experience the timeless beauty of Provence, from the charming villages of Bonnieux, Lourmarin and beyond to the rolling hills and ancient vineyards that define the area.
Follow the winding road to hilltop Bonnieux (5km), one of the most picturesque villages in the Luberon. Perched high on a hill, enjoy sweeping views of the surrounding valleys and the dramatic Mont Ventoux in the distance. Stroll through its narrow streets lined with stone houses, or visit the iconic Church of Our Lady of Santé, which dates back to the 12th century. Bonnieux is also home to a handful of artisan shops, cafés, and a Friday morning market where you can stock up on seasonal Provençal produce.
You are also well placed for visiting the hidden gem of Buoux (11km), a tiny village located in an area popular with rock-climbing enthusiasts. Indeed, the Luberon is a paradise for outdoor adventurers. Walk or hike through the forests of La Forêt des Cèdres or appreciate the rugged landscapes by mountain bike. There are also many wonderful cycling routes across the Luberon from the family-friendly Véloroute du Calavon to more challenging trails.
Discover many other picture-perfect villages across the region. To the south, Lourmarin (13km) invites you to explore its stunning Renaissance castle and cobbled streets lined with charming cafés, art galleries, and hidden courtyards. Cucuron (19km), known for its beautiful bassin framed by plane trees, is another gorgeous village where time seems to slow down. What’s more, Cucuron, Lourmarin and Ansouis (22km) all boast Michelin starred restaurants.
Heading north instead, Ménerbes (15km) and Gordes (24km) are other hilltop villages with panoramic views across the Luberon or drive to Roussillon (15km), where the earth itself is coloured in vibrant shades of red and orange due to its ochre mines. All three destinations (alongside Lourmarin and Ansouis) are officially classified as ‘Plus Beaux Villages de France’.
