Our French country house with thick walls is centuries old and is located in the center of the famous medieval mountain village of Moustiers, one of the most beautiful villages in France. The house is light and modern, with a Scandinavian touch. The large living room with authentic French ceiling beams is the beating heart of the house - a house with a real soul.

Villa Moustiers is located in Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France. Here you are in a small but lively mountain village in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence department.

Our Provencal country house is in the old centre of the village, on a cute little square with a chessboard (la Place des Bonnes Mamies' for the locals) and on the same street as Marie-Ange's Atelier des Biscuits, so always a nice smell of biscuits.

You feel far away from the world in the house, on the terrace and on the roof terrace, but after two steps outside you are in the middle of the lively city centre full of shops, galleries, studios, restaurants and terraces.

A 15-minute drive takes you to the Lac de Sainte-Croix reservoir, at the start of the famous Gorges du Verdun, Europe's second largest canyon. On the way to the Gorges is an intimate beach with bar and boat rental, La Cadeno (something for the locals, fewer tourists than at the Gorges itself)

Also a 15-minute drive away is the Plateau du Valensole with kilometres of rolling lavender fields. Lavender blooms from mid-June to mid-July, culminating in a big traditional harvest festival in the lavender village of Valensole.

The cosy city of Aix en Provence can be reached in an hour's drive, Marseilles in one hour and a half.

Moustiers is famous for its refined and painted pottery la faïence. There is a museum on the history of faience and you will find several shops and ateliers all over the village.

Medieval alleyways wind past little squares and fountains and shops, workshops, restaurants and terraces are everywhere. Between two mighty rocks, a golden star hangs over the village, the icon of Moustiers and subject of many holiday photos!

Above the village, near high limestone cliffs, there is a beautiful Romanesque-Gothic chapel, which you can only reach on foot during a steep climb of about 20 minutes - via a cross road along a paved slope of 262 steps. Once at the top, though, you have a beautiful view over the village's Provencal roofs, the valley full of cypress trees and the Valensole plateau.

Hiking, visiting markets, discovering local products, rafting, paragliding, supping, canoeing: everything is possible!
