Villa Lacoste is a pristine 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental villa with private pool in the ‘golden triangle’ of the Luberon, right between the villages of Menerbes and Lacoste. At its heart is the stunning chef’s kitchen, open-plan to the large living room, and the finish throughout is to a high standard. The house sits in the middle of a typically Provence garden, along with outdoor dining spots and boules court, in a quiet residential country setting.

The mature garden is planted with lavender and rosemary, oleander and box, pines and olive trees and a great deal more.

Villa Lacoste is in a quiet, wooded close in the Luberon countryside 1.3 miles from Lacoste and 2 miles from Menerbes.
Menerbes is a perfect Provence village – picturesque, perched above the vineyards with terrific views all around, and blessed with good restaurants, bar and small food stores, as well as the seasonal market on Thursday mornings. Art expos and a classical music festival give Menerbes a gentle buzz in the summer.
Lacoste is famed as the home of the Marquis de Sade, whose castle still dominates the village, with amazing views over the Luberon valley. The village is beautifully preserved with almost no trace of modernisation, and it has a couple of restaurants and the Cafe de France with its grandstand view to Bonnieux.
