A veritable stone hamlet awaits you in Luberon, France. Simiane is a refurbished Provencal farmhouse situated on two hundred acres of fresh country land. The villa is located about a mile from Simiane La Rotonde, which was for many years the regional capital of lavender. Savor the gentle fragrances of these beautiful violet flowers that continue to bloom just steps away from this glorious residence. The villa features a pristine and expansive swimming pool, with inviting red sun loungers and umbrellas awaiting on the tiled deck. The grounds also feature a covered dining area boasting an enormous wooden table with benches. More perks abound at Simiane including a tennis court, 6 VTT bikes, foosball and ping pong tables, a swing and an alfresco shower. Indoors, you will find Internet access, satellite TV and DVD player, a library, multiple fireplaces and baby equipment. Your reservation includes two housekeepers, a cook, a butler and a security guard. Plush and cozy living areas are nestled next to the ambient fireplaces. A large formal dining room makes a great environment to just slow down the pace with a great meal and share stories or special announcements. Various cooking options are available, from a wood burning stove to a fully equipped modern kitchen. A total of ten bedrooms with nine en-suite bathrooms welcome up to twenty-eight guests at Simiane villa. All of the bedrooms include air conditioning, and one is wheelchair accessible. Each of the bedrooms provides a variety of sleeping arrangements from single beds that can be converted into kings and loft spaces that provide more beds in two of the rooms. In this way, Simiane is perfect for a large gathering of family and friends or a corporate retreat. Located an hour away from Aix-en-Provence and Avignon, Simiane La Rotonde, the “city of character,” is considered one of the loveliest hilltop villages in Haute Provence. Thanks to its high altitude, the village folk are able to enjoy cool respite from the blazing hot summer sun that shines 300 days a year, a claim supported by the installation of telescopes at the Observatory of St Michel. Spend your days in the splendid French sun at Simiane, and emerge refreshed and rejuvenated like never before! Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved...
