In our view
What we like
Views: The house has an extraordinary high, wraparound view that will inspire and delight.
Location: In quiet countryside but a short distance into the buzzing village of Roussillon.
Design: Living room and outside merge into one space – you don’t get that with the older Provencal houses – as well as air-conditioned bedrooms.
Outside: Amid the pine trees it’s a peaceful vibe and everywhere outside there is the view.
Things to note
Pool safety: The pool has a rigid, motorised cover for security but extra care should be taken with young children.
Villa Roussillon is in a quiet setting 1.6km/1 mile from the village of Roussillon.
Roussillon is one of the most recognisable villages in France. It used to be known for its ochre quarry, now it is known for the spectacular palette of ochre shades that colour the houses – there are said to be 17 different hues from yellow to pink. Roussillon is not just a pretty face, as a popular village it has several restaurants, art boutiques and a quaint market on Thursday mornings, so it is a good village base too. Not to mention the other-worldly ochre quarry which you can visit on a circuit of the ochre walk (sentier des ocres).
