Gordes House | Classic Provençale Family House, Spectacular Setting, Pool, Extensive Grounds

6 Bedroom House in Gordes

Ideal for multi-generational vacations. The house has plenty of space to be together or to spread out for individual pass-times. Two of the six bedrooms are in the wing, emphasizing space and options. Furthermore, the living room, library, study, two terraces by the house, and another by the pool provide lots of room. There is both indoor dining in the dining room and outdoor dining in the courtyard behind the house with barbecue.
The setting is peaceful and protected. The hamlet beyond the courtyard feels like the Provence we knew before 'A Year in Provence' attracted all the attention. Even in high season (the Luberon valley is popular in summer), while close and accessible, the property is a getaway. It is frequently praised for 'feeling classically Provençale.' The house faces the Luberon and looks out over orchards, vineyards and fields. The pool sits beyond and below so it has privacy and doesn't interfere with activities around the house.
For fifteen years, in the fall and spring, Sarah Brown has run 'A Week In Provence,' a cultural and gastronomic program from the house. For this the house has a fully equipped kitchen, and guest amenities like wireless internet, cable TV, hair dryers, soaps, etc. Sarah lives in the hamlet and usually greets new guests with a glass of wine and a quick-start to the house and the region. She is a tremendous source of advice and tips. With her experience, she can point guests towards where they want to go and what they want to see in accordance with their interests. See more about Sarah and the house.
The property is also an ideal place to do nothing more than admire the view, an activity which never seems to get old. Visiting the nearby hill villages, Gordes, Roussillon, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Menerbes, Oppède is a lovely, easy activity. They tare less than fifteen minutes from the house. On foot, terrific walks or hikes go North, East, South and West from the house and provide tremendous panoramas along their routes. Nearly every day during the summer there are markets up and down the valley including a great farmers' market just three miles from the house, twice a week, in Coustellet which also has an exceptionally good bakery and a very very good (and recent) super market.

Summary: If you are looking for an authentic French Provençal experience, look no further than this home. We had a wonderful week at this lovely family house that is ideal for groups like ours with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas and a well equipped kitchen. We made full use of the various sitting areas outside to eat our meals or just sit and relax with a glass of wine or a cup of tea or coffee. The setting is beautiful and private and we found it very easy to relax and unwind in the peaceful surroundings. The pool was a great place to cool off in the afternoon. The house is centrally located for visiting the many nearby market towns and villages that Provence is famous for. Sarah was a warm and friendly host who took excellent care of us.

Summary: My friends and family stayed in this beautiful villa and enjoyed every moment of their time there. The villa is in a lovely serene setting looking out to forest and mountains. Close by there are trails to walk through vineyards and fields of poppies. Sarah, the host, who lives next door was so generous with her time to assist as needed and was willing to share her vast knowledge of the area. She also has great culinary skills and made a delicious dinner featuring the cuisine of Provence. The villa is very close to Gordes, which is featured as one of the most picturesque towns in Southern France.

Summary: Perfect location for exploring the villages and countryside of the Lubéron or whiling away the days by the pool. Sarah’s welcome meal was wonderful after a long travel day and we enjoyed learning the history of the property and her family. My husband spent all his mornings with the all the books in the vast library, he was in heaven!

Summary: Have stayed several times at the property which has as much character as you can expect in one of the most beautiful parts of France. It is located within a short drive of many of the renown villages in the area you will want to visit to enjoy local art and customs. As a french family living in the US, we also enjoy the hosts' company and bi-cultural background. And to top it all, they are great cooks should you wish to enjoy traditional cuisine 'at home' rather than rely on restaurants or cook yourself (you are there on vacation after all).

Summary: Six friends from Spain, New Zealand, Norway, and the USA decided to celebrate some major birthdays (80, 75, 70) and thought “Let’s head to the south of France in September”. Lucky for us we found Sarah Brown and Shep Ferguson’s house in Les Martins! What a delight - perfect for our exploring, yoga, swimming, eating and drinking rose! It was very comfortable for all of us with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms; the unique and interesting living room with the wonderful old bakery door still visible in the corner; the library terrace for our evening glass of rose while watching the sunset over the misty Luberon hills; the large covered terrace for our morning croissants and cafe au lait; the lovely narrow dining table from an ancient abbey which made our evening meals so intimate; the well equipped kitchen where we jostled and laughed and drank rose as we prepared our meals. Each day we’d sojourn to one or two wonderful towns in the area - Gordes, Roussilion, L’Oppede de Vieux, Lourmarin - exploring old castles, churches, markets, and stopping for lunch, with rose of course! Sarah Brown, our hostess, was a delight - greeting our arrival with her lovely yellow lab, Gaston, and soup au pistou and local rose! She was a font of knowledge of the area and a wonderful cook. It was fascinating to learn her family’s history in Les Martins and to hear how they purchased the old bakery in 1959 and turned it into this charming, book-filled and comfortable home. We’d go back in an instant - maybe for 85, 80 75 - or any birthdays in between!

Summary: We had a truly delightful stay at Shep and Sarah's family home. Every morning we enjoyed our coffee and croissants on the veranda taking in the view of the Luberon Mountains, the namesake of the valley where the village of Les Martins sits. The accommodations are simple yet elegant and comfortable. It is real authentic country Provence, a house filled with vintage treasures and eclectic artwork. We had ample space, large clean bathrooms and light filled bedrooms with panoramic views to the mountains. In the warm afternoons we made our way down to swim in the pool or we headed out by car to roam the narrow streets of the neighboring villages. The house is within close proximity to several lovely markets and wineries. In the evenings we could prepare a meal with Sarah's expert advice, a culinary institution in her own right. The rustic old kitchen performs well and the large farm table straddling the huge fireplace is a lovely place to dine. Staying here was an absolute highlight of our trip to France. We hope to make this a regular stop in the years to come as our hearts yearn for such a classic and authentic experience.

Summary: We have had a wonderful time in the house. We spent two weeks with six adults and three kids. The house is very spacious but also very cosy and very unique in style. From the garden and the pool you get a great view on the Luberon. The property is close to Gordes and Goult.
