A stone's throw from Le Domaine de Marie, discover this centuries-old Mas, just renovated in the pure Provencal tradition and decorated with the often copied but never equalled touch of the Sibuet family. Nestled in more than 4 hectares, planted with vines, olive trees and truffle oaks, with a breathtaking view of the Luberon and the Abbey of Saint-Hilaire, this detached house has 6 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, a dining room with fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen, a large living room, a TV corner and a wine cellar.
Outside, you'll find a heated swimming pool with sun loungers, a summer kitchen with barbecue, an outdoor living and dining room with Provencal fireplace and rustic country look, a curé garden and pétanque court.
As in the old Luberonian farmhouses, you enter here through the dining room. A majestic fireplace in which you can cook, an old wooden workbench, a large table, rough stone walls and lime plaster, spend unforgettable moments with family or friends over a meal with a southern accent. In the extension, discover the kitchen, full of charm with its Lacanche cooker range, its shades of olive leaf green and havana, its terracotta floor tiles and its credenza in real cement tiles.
Fully equipped kitchen, traditional kitchen range, microwave oven, dishwasher, toaster, coffee machine, electric kettle, fruit press, barbecue, wine cellar.
The living room and its natural colours call for simplicity and fullness. Stone walls, linen fabrics, terracotta pots, wickerwork, traditional terracotta floors and rough wooden furniture. Here everything is borrowed from the natural world around us. Next door, the small vaulted living room, with its spelt-coloured lime plastered walls and its ultra-cozy sofa ,TV & DVD player.
Located halfway between Gordes and Bonnieux and to Ménerbes,the Domaine is an oasis of tranquillity and a strategic starting point for exploring the region.
Guests can enjoy a tea-time in the tea house of the village Menebres. For lunch and dinner, they can book a table in one of the village restaurants. If they prefer to eat at home, the village grocery shop offers individual portions of tasty home-made food.
Once they have wandered through the little streets of Ménerbes, they can visit the charming surrounding villages (Gordes, Oppède-le-Vieux, Bonnieux, L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Lourmarin and Saint-Rémy de Provence to name a few).

Nature lovers can enjoy a walk in the Forêts des Cèdres de Bonnieux and a hike in the Colorado Provençal!!
Epicureans will appreciate a wine route. In the immediate vicinity of Ménerbes, are the vineyards of the Luberon and, in less than an hour, is the Vallée-du-Rhône (by driving a little to the north).
