Les
Olivettes is a large converted "Bastide", or
Provençal farmhouse, set amongst the olive groves,
vineyards, and cherry orchards on the southern flank of
the village of Lourmarin. |
|

|
|
With
one of the most privileged locations in the Luberon,
'Les Olivettes' offers striking panoramic views
from all apartments, as well as unusual comfort
and style throughout. |
|
| |
| Decorated
and furnished by a professional
interior designer, the inside of this Provencal farmhouse
has a spacious common-room and five independent private
apartments, each with distinctive colours, a distinctive
character and decor. |

|
|
The
antiques and contemporary furnishings in the 600
sq.ft living-room and reception area combine with
the original cathedral ceiling to create an elegant
and welcoming atmosphere.
The walls throughout the house have been painted
using the ochre washes typical of Provence ; the
floors are done with the hand-made terracotta
parefeuilles from the renowned Vernin tileworks
in nearby Apt.

|
| |
| Each
apartment has a queen-size bed, a well-equipped kitchen,
modern appliances, and a stereo. All apartments have
24-hour Internet access and satellite TV. Some have
DVD and VCR players. Each accomodation has a well-furnished
, shady and spacious terrace with idyllic views of
rural
peace and quiet. All accommodations are non-smoking,
and well-behaved pets are welcome.
Everything in this sophisticated house shows the best
features of two worlds - modern appliances and modern
comfort in the ambiance of a traditional country estate.

Your
hosts, Joseph and Elizabeth DeLiso, owners of
Les Olivettes,
have lived in a beautiful 16th century village
house under the clock tower in Lourmarin for
15 years.
So, they know the Luberon well. They and their
children, all perfectly bilingual, are always
pleased to help
with suggestions, day-trip planning and restaurant
bookings. |
