Authentique Menerbes Maison de village avec jardin isolé, Pool Spectacular View

Nous avons passé en famille une magnifique semaine à Ménerbes, au sein de cette belle maison de village. La vue des différentes et agréables terrasses de la maison est magnifique, les environs offrent de superbes promenades et la maison, bien que située dans le village est parfaitement au calme. Jean-Marie est un hôte extrêmement agréable, très réactif, a su anticiper les questions que nous pouvions nous poser et nous guider dans notre séjour, merci à lui.

Jean-Marie's home was absolutely perfect for my family and young son. The house is wonderfully equipped and charming - lots of cooking supplies, children's toys and books, etc. We loved cooking in the classic kitchen and eating dinner on the terrace, overlooking the mountains, and lunches under the vineyard. We spent many days lounging by the pool and Jean-Marie also provided so many great visits in the surrounding area (lots to see and do!) and we did them all. We were also happy to just explore the village, Menerbes, which is one of the most beautiful villages I have ever seen. By the end of our 3 week stay, we really knew all the people in town and loved the bistro and its beautiful view. Seeing the local lavender field in full bloom was also very special (it's just at the foot of the village). I hope to come back to Jean-Marie's home again in the future. He was such a gracious host and so helpful for anything we needed. We even extended our stay by a week - it's hard to leave this place!

La maison de Jean -Marie est idéalement située pour visiter la région. Menerbes est un très joli village et l'emplacement de la maison permet de tout faire à pied. Il s'agit d'une grande maison familiale adaptée aux adultes et enfants et disposant de tout le nécessaire, et même plus. Rien ne manque. Il n'y a plus qu'à se détendre ! Jean-Marie est également très à l'écoute, réactif et soucieux de votre bien-être. Rien à redire, juste à profiter !

We really enjoyed our stay at Jean-Marie's house. It's a beautiful and charming home, and the location could not have been more perfect. The town is beyond beautiful, but it's not overrun by tourists. We can pretty much find everything we need within walking distance - three bakeries, a grocery store, a few very good restaurants (there is one Michelin-starred restaurant), cafes, pizzeria, a few boutique, etc. Literally everything within 5 minutes walk. There is also Aldi and Super U (bigger grocery store/supermarket) in the nearby town (Coustellet - 10 minutes drive). The house itself is very beautiful with gorgeous views. We enjoyed (almost) every meals in the back porch right outside of the kitchen - the view of the Luberon park is so beautiful from here. We also enjoyed the swimming pool a lot. There are a couple other outdoor dining areas in the backyard that you can use. The house has three floors, with the living room, kitchen, 1.5 bathroom and laundry room in the first floor, 3 bedroom in the 2nd floor, and another living/play/rest area in the 3rd floor (only this one has AC). Although the 1st and 2nd floor do not have AC, the room feels cool enough that we never feel the need to go up to the 3rd floor to cool down (we were there in late June). Jean-Marie is one of the best hosts we've ever had (we are frequent travelers and have used many rental properties all around the world). There were very nice welcome presents in the kitchen when we arrived - a bottle of wine, a fresh baguette, butter and some delicious goat cheese. Jean-Marie responded quickly to all our questions, and was always very helpful. There was a construction going on which had led to a few issues, but Jean-Marie quickly addressed all the issues and made sure that we can be as comfortable as possible. He was also extremely flexible with the checkout time, which we greatly appreciated. We did a few trips to nearby villages/towns (Gordes, Rousillon, Lacoste, Apt, and Avignon), and we felt that Menerbes was definitely our favorite place (to stay). We spent a week there, and we wish we had stayed longer. It's a very beautiful and peaceful place. If we go to Luberon again, we will definitely stay in Jean-Marie's house again.

We have spent 2 weeks in this beautifull house at the and of August. The place is extremly charming - you can feel not only the Provence history, but you will get also a small flavour of Africam continent, for Valerie and Jean are were closely tight with African countries. The house is very well kept, there is everything you need for wonderfull holidays. We enjoyed very much the master´s bedroom and its breathtaking view on Luberon mountines. Our kids loved attic for their playing. We spent nearlly all our time sitting on one of three terraces, watching the Luberon and enjoying French vine and food.Visiting Provence nearly every year, this place is the best we have every been and definitely will be back in 2017! Dear Valerie and Jean, thanks for wonderfull holidays we had in your house!
