Overview

This house is ideal for anyone in search of top-notch accommodations in an idyllically private setting. With nine en-suite bedrooms and private beautiful heated swimming pool, Petit Palais is an exceptional home.

Accommodations

From the outside, Petit Palais appears pretty much unchanged, with rough whitewashed walls, terracotta roof tiles and louvered shutters. Step inside however and you’ll discover a stunning conversion comprising nine en-suite bedrooms, elegant living spaces and a high-tech home cinema. The transformation from rustic mas to luxury home is one of the finest we’ve come across; all the character of the original rooms has been retained and given a stylish 21st-century twist to create the ultimate country retreat, close to the loveliest towns and villages of the Luberon.

There is laundry room with washing machine, dryer and ironing station.
