Description
As soon as you set eyes on Villa Vanado, Provence – a quintessential Provençal stone house bursting with charm and nestled in mature gardens within a dreamy 18th-century country estate – you’ll know you’re in for a special stay.
There’s ample space to spread out, with a large kitchen/diner forming the hub of the home. Traditional features – wooden beams, flagstone flooring and stone feature walls – ensure it feels warm and homely, while mod cons mean you’ll have everything you need to hand. A beautiful lounge is flooded with light for cosy conversations, while the library lounge is the ideal bookworm’s spot. When it comes to laying your head at night, there are seven elegant bedrooms, plus a separate guest house providing an additional bedroom with views over the gardens.
Much like the villa’s interior, the gardens here (all 2.7 glorious acres of them) are the stuff of glossy magazines. Lush lawns, peppered with olive and pine trees, give way to the swimming pool, where you’re sure to spend hours whiling away the afternoons in the sunshine. For breezy al fresco lunches, gather around the table on the large terrace.
This luxury villa sits within the idyllic 18th-century Chateau de Berne estate, known for its wine tourism, vast grounds and five-star amenities. This means that as well as your own private villa retreat, you have access to wine tasting, Cinq Mondes spa treatments and Michelin-starred meals on your doorstep. What more could you wish for from a luxury villa holiday in Provence?
