Luxurious 6 Bedroom Provencal Villa set in a 5 star golfing resort

The Inside Story 'from the beginning': Designed by award winning local architects and created by skilled local tradesmen Le Chardon d'or (the Golden Thistle) is the perfect holiday venue. Natural stone floor tiling, local ceramics, Italian marble, timber detailing, and forged ironwork, combine with aircon, power showers, underfloor heating, lavish kitchens, and delightful bathrooms to create the perfect combination of old charm and today's exacting standards. On the lower ground floor the poolside lounge houses the wide screen TV, DVD, PlayStation and library of games and films. Turret stairs lead to a fine hall overlooking the sunken salon and dining room separated by a central cheminee, furnished in leather and oak, but most importantly with incredible open views to the Luberon.

The locally crafted kitchen benefits from a full range of Bosch appliances, including the ice and water dispensing American fridge. A king ensuite bedroom sharing the views, and boasting a triple headed shower and WC completes the story so far.

The Inside Story ' part II': ...following the circular stairway upwards brings you to the turret ensuite twin bedroom, looking to the dramatic Vernegues, a few steps more and you reach the level containing 2 further twin bedrooms looking out to the Luberon, a working study with doors to the balcony, the full family bathroom, and the magnificent master suite with windows on three sides, including glazed doors to the spectacular fully furnished balcony.
