An authentic Provençal villa with spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, the Bastide de St Martin is an elegant and spacious holiday destination that integrates modern comforts into a traditional, rustic design effortlessly. Capable of sleeping up to 24 guests across 12 bedrooms, the bastide is ideally suited to multi-family, multi-generational or group holidays.

Situated at the foot of the Grand Luberon, halfway between Apt and Manosque, the Bastide de St Martin benefits from a picture-perfect location in the heart of the Provence countryside. Approximately 90 minutes drive from the achingly cool Mediterranean city of Marseille and an hour from arty Avignon and its regional airport, the bastide is also well connected for visitors seeking to make day trips.

The bastide's 12 charming bedrooms are split across the main house and an annexe, with eight in the former and four in the latter. In the main building, the first floor features four bedrooms with king-size beds. The second floor is home to two bedrooms with two single beds, a room with three single beds and a room with four single beds. In the annexe, three bedrooms are fitted with king-size beds and one with a queen-size bed. All rooms with a king or queen-size bed have access to their own bathrooms, while those with single beds share two bathrooms.

Food fanatics will adore the fully equipped kitchen, while a 20-seat dining table and 30-seat table in the annexe means there is plenty of space to enjoy social mealtimes together. For relaxing, the impressive vaulted salon includes comfortable sofa seating, and the expansive home cinema room ensures movie nights go off with a bang.

Active guests can take advantage of the outdoor tennis court, petanque court, pool table and table football. Those looking to unwind can kick back by the heated pool on one of the many sun loungers provided. Whether you're of the former or latter persuasion, everyone will revel in the covered outdoor area for al fresco eating and drinking - perfect for lazy breakfasts and dinner under the stars. Six electric bikes and ten bicycles are also available for use by guests. A one-of-a-kind destination in a phenomenal location, Bastide de St Martin will prove the setting for a truly exceptional holiday in this famously beguiling region of France.
