We were bowled over as soon as we saw this superbly renovated 18th century village wheat mill with its impeccable interior, excellent facilities, and perfect location within easy walking distance of the picturesque Cadenet and its amenities.
Following full renovation, quality fittings and furnishings are found throughout, and with comfort in mind each double bedroom has a king-size bed and is equipped with air conditioning with further flexibility provided by two single beds in the playroom (no A/C, suitable for children only). Downstairs, the living space is fully open plan, the stylish fully equipped kitchen leading to a spacious dining room, and on to an inviting lounge with exposed stone walls.
Further comfy seating and an outdoor dining table are found in the fabulous covered area with summer kitchen, where everyone can gather to dine or relax together and which, we suspect, will be a hub for most groups. This area flows directly onto the sun terrace beside the pool, which is flanked by an olive tree, fragrant lavender and an area laid to lawn. Complete privacy is assured in this enclosed courtyard.
5 minutes’ walk from this secluded haven is the lovely village of Cadenet with its château which hosts art exhibitions and concerts. The village is well appointed with a small supermarket, a boulangerie, cafés and various restaurants, as well as the ubiquitous weekly market for picking up fresh produce. A larger supermarket is only 4km away in Puyvert, and further shops and restaurants can be found in picture perfect Lourmarin (7km) as well as in Pertuis (12km). Lourmarin is classed as one of France’s most beautiful villages, its winding streets and dappled squares oozing typical Provençal ambience and don’t forget a trip to Bonnieux (20km) made famous by author Peter Mayle’s ‘A Year in Provence’.
Cadenet is set on the southern edge of the much-loved Luberon national park, famous for its lavender fields, ochre villages and wonderful scenery. Aix-en-Provence, the former capital of Provence and now a bustling university town, is only a 40-minute drive away; it is particularly of interest to art lovers, having inspired many artists including the Impressionist painter Paul Cézanne, whose studio can be visited. The closest international airport is Marseille (50km) which is an easy 1 hour drive from Le Mas Martin.
- The property sleeps maximum 8 adults only plus 2 children. The first floor playroom with 2 singles is suitable for children only and does not have A/C.
- A babygate secures first floor however care is needed with young children as there is no handrail on the open stairs leading to first floor.
