Calavon is part of a rental property spread over 2.8 ha (7 acres) of land, including a 5-acre lavender field. There are two other rental units on the property and the large pool and garden are shared. The outside space of Calavon faces away from the rest of the property and is totally private, with a shaded patio on the ground floor with table and chairs.

The pool measures 13m x 7m (42 x 23ft) and is heated in the shoulder months to extend the swimming season. The pool has an electronic sliding cover for security, and is on the other side of the property, 30 metres away. The poolhouse offers a shaded lounging area as well as a stone barbecue.

The property has plenty of off-street parking, and a boules court. Also on the grounds and out of the way is the caretakers’ cottage: the caretakers are an English couple who know the area very well and can help with problems or local advice. One of the services they can provide is a daily breakfast delivery.

What we like


  • Pool:  The shared pool is big and heated to extend the swimming season, and has a wonderful setting with the lavender field and the view to the Luberon.
  • Lavender:  No need to go anywhere to enjoy the quintessential Provence experience of a lavender field in bloom.
  • Location:  A quiet country setting roughly equidistant to three great Provence villages – Bonnieux, Lacoste and Goult – this is the famed ‘golden triangle’ of the Luberon, with its abundance of perched villages, daily markets, vineyards and wineries.
  • Bathrooms:  So much care has gone into the gorgeous bathrooms with elegant standalone bath tubs and walk-in showers.

Things to note


  • Pool:  The pool has a sliding cover for security but extra care should be taken with young children.
  • Caretakers:  The delightful English caretaker couple live in their own cottage on the grounds, and you can either get their help with everything from breakfast to local recommendations, or not see them at all, as you choose.

Location – Bonnieux


The property is in quiet countryside 2.5 miles (4km) from the village of Bonnieux and 3 miles (4.5km) from Goult and Lacoste, in the ‘golden triangle’ of the Luberon.

Bonnieux is as picture-perfect from afar as it is on the inside. Beautifully preserved and also alive all year thanks to its shops, cafes and especially its many restaurants. There is fine architecture to be seen in Bonnieux’s streets, dating back to the middle ages. And another reason to love Bonnieux – it has magnificent views, facing west there is a panorama that takes in half of the Luberon. The Friday morning market in Bonnieux is a must, it’s well stocked with stalls and very picturesque too.
