Inside
Mas de Joucas is a typical Provencal country house with generous proportions, a gorgeous terrace under a grand shading plane tree, and original features like the ancient floor tiles. The house dates to the early 18th century. It has some surprises too: a cosy bar made from a stone drinking trough, and a kitchen fit for a professional. The house’s stone walls keep the inside notably cool in the summer.

Living Room: With seating around the fireplace and TV at one end, and dining table at the other, the room has large windows facing south which let the light flood in.
Kitchen: The kitchen is perfect for keen cooks, with its professional gas cooker/oven, and stainless steel worktops. There is also a more simple combi oven/microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and both Nespresso and Senseo coffee makers.

What we like
- Period features: It’s a lovely old Provence house and the much desired old floor-tiles have been retained, as well as the bar recycling parts of the old stables. Houses of this age have stone walls which means they keep cool in summer.
- Kitchen: A kitchen in which you can play at being a master chef.
- Bedrooms: The bedrooms are all a good size and with en suite bathroom.
Things to note
- Country life: The property is in the countryside and not fenced in, so supervision of toddlers is necessary.
Guest reviews
The house is 1 mile from Joucas, one of the most beautiful hill-top villages of the Luberon.
Joucas is a laid-back and very pretty little perched village, topped by a 900-year-old fortress. After wandering around its medieval streets you can take in the wonderful view over a morning coffee or lunch from the simple bistro La Terrasse. For the sporty there are tennis courts as well as a playground for kiddies. And Joucas also has an ace up its sleeve for foodies – a Michelin-starred restaurant, Mas des Herbes Blanches, where the view matches the food.
