Maison Mur En Pierres

The villa

Beyond ancient oaks and towering cedars, Maison Mur En Pierres reveals itself as a characterful holiday home in the heart of the Luberon. Set within a 5-hectare estate, this beautifully restored bergerie captures the untamed beauty of Provence in every direction.

The house itself is a charming blend of heritage and modernity. Original stone walls and timber beams speak to the home’s pastoral past, while contemporary touches breathe in a sense of ease and light. At its heart lies a central kitchen, linking the main house to a striking glass-walled salon that opens fully onto the natural surroundings. Five bedrooms and four bathrooms (three en suite) are thoughtfully arranged, allowing the house to sleep up to 10 guests.

Whether you are gathering for long summer lunches on the decked terrace, curling up with a book by the fireplace or simply watching the light shift across the trees, every space invites slow, meaningful moments. Outdoors, a heated swimming pool beckons for a refreshing dip, a pétanque court, table tennis and even a hammock promise relaxed afternoons in the grounds. New for 2026 - a padel court is an amazing addition to this beautiful home. 

Despite the rural setting, you are within reach of some of the Luberon’s most sought-after villages including Bonnieux and Roussillon, allowing you to experience the Luberon’s cultural and culinary riches. Wander through bustling village markets, sip local wines on sun-warmed terraces or hike/cycle the region’s winding trails with vistas stretching to the distant Alps.

From mornings by the heated pool to evenings spent savouring grilled delicacies from the plancha, life here follows the easy, unhurried pace that makes Provence so enduringly special.

Set within a 5-hectare estate of oaks and majestic cedars, Maison Mur En Pierres offers a quintessential Provençal escape only 5km from Bonnieux. This stone-built retreat is perfectly poised for guests to savour the beauty, culture and charm of the Luberon, while enjoying the beauty and calmness of its natural setting.

Just a short drive away lies Bonnieux, a postcard-perfect hilltop village with winding lanes, traditional bistros and magnificent vistas across the valley. Equally enchanting are the ochre-hued lanes of Roussillon (7.5km) and the historic charm of Lacoste (8km), once home to the Marquis de Sade. Goult (8km), with its pretty square and inviting cafés, and the bustling Provençal market town of Apt (12km) add to the area's vibrant local character. Don’t miss Apt’s Saturday morning market, the largest in the region.

If you can find the time, discover other celebrated villages - Ménerbes, Gordes and Lourmarin are all within a 20 to 30-minute drive, each brimming with superb restaurants, galleries and seasonal festivals - all classified as ‘ Plus Beaux Villages ’.

Outdoor enthusiasts can explore the region's scenic cycling and hiking trails or challenge themselves with a rock-climbing adventure near Buoux. Luberon vineyards offer intimate tastings where you can sample fine AOC wines under the sun-dappled pergolas of family-run domaines.

Whether browsing market stalls for local produce, enjoying lunch on a shaded terrace or wandering through lavender fields in bloom, this part of Provence invites you to slow down. For a change of pace, day trips to Avignon (47km), Saint-Rémy-de-Provence (52km) or Aix-en-Provence (55km) reveal a rich tapestry of history, art and architecture, all within easy reach.
