About the villa
Tucked into a peaceful hillside near L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Maison L’Hirondelle is a beautifully restored villa that blends rustic authenticity with understated luxury. Designed for relaxed living, it’s an ideal retreat for families or small groups looking to explore the charm of Provence while enjoying the comforts of a well appointed home. With sweeping views over olive groves and gardens brimming with lavender and rosemary, the setting is unmistakably Provençal.
Stepping through the front door, guests are welcomed into an airy living room with open plan kitchen and dining space, perfect for gathering over leisurely meals. The contemporary kitchen is superbly equipped, while the dining area opens seamlessly onto the terrace for indoor outdoor flow. A cosy living room with an open fireplace provides a comfortable space for cooler evenings, and a separate TV lounge offers a second spot for winding down.
Upstairs, three restful bedrooms offer a calm and comfortable escape at the end of the day. The master suite features a super king size bed and an en suite bathroom with a separate bath and walk in shower. A second bedroom also includes a super king size bed that can be converted to twins on request, while the third is a cheerful twin room; ideal for children.
Outside, the villa truly comes into its own. A swimming pool is framed by a paved sun terrace and shaded seating areas, offering space to lounge, read or simply soak in the scenery. A wisteria covered pergola creates a picturesque setting for long, lazy lunches and candlelit dinners. Younger guests are well catered for too, with a hidden playground and ping-pong table tucked into the landscaped gardens.
Just five minutes away, L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue invites you to wander its riverside cafés and browse one of Provence’s largest markets every Thursday and Sunday, a feast of fresh produce, flowers and artisanal goods. For food lovers, the Michelin-starred Le Vivier is also only five minutes from your door, serving refined Provençal cuisine on the banks of the Sorgue. Wine enthusiasts can venture 40 minutes to Châteauneuf-du-Pape for tastings among historic vineyards, while outdoor adventurers will love kayaking from Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, just 15 minutes away, gliding along the crystal-clear Sorgue beneath towering limestone cliffs.
