This fascinating old town house, with accommodation over five floors, forms part of the ancient ramparts of the village of Roussillon, celebrated for the ochre-colour of its houses built from the adjacent ochre quarries. Set in the heart of the village, restaurants and village life are literally on the doorstep. Old stone stairs, thick walls and rooms onto different levels give just some indication of the historical nature of this wonderful old house, which has recently been renovated by its artistic owners to provide excellent contemporary accommodation. The terrace has panoramic views taking in the ochre quarries and Luberon mountains, while on the lower garden level a private 8m swimming pool is the ideal spot to take a plunge and enjoy the Provençal sunshine.

All those little extras which combine the independence of a villa holiday with the peace of mind of bespoke service can be pre-arranged before you arrive. From private transfers to your villa to your own professional chef, Sanctuary Villas & Apartments is able to provide that extra level of service.
