Nesting in the department of Vaucluse, the Luberon region represents the very essence of Provence in the beauty of its landscapes contrasting characteristic colours and scents and in its legendary art of living. It is, above all, home to splendid landscapes, cedar forests, cliffs and canyons, “Provencal Colorado” ochre quarries, secret rivers or steep vineyards.
Nestling among the scents of the lavender fields, the sweetness of the cherry blossom and the century-old olive trees, enchanting Luberon houses some of the most beautiful towns in Provence: Manosque, Apt, Cavaillon or even Lourmarin, Gordes and Roussillon which have been classified as some of the most beautiful villages in France.
Their inhabitants share the rare privilege of living in the heart of a wild, yet preserved natural setting, whilst savouring the sweetness of Provencal living: Mediterranean climate, gushing fountains, colourful markets selling fruit and vegetables swollen by the sun, flavoursome cuisine, delicious local wines sipped under the shade of wisteria…
A land of history and culture
The Luberon region is rich with exceptional heritage. The Clos Savornin is close to numerous cultural sites and museums, near to Avignon and the famous Palais des Papes (Popes’ Palace), the ancient Theatre in Orange, the most beautiful hillside villages in the Vaucluse, the Pont du Gard (Roman aqueduct), or Châteauneuf-du-Pape…
Enjoying a unique panorama over the Luberon range, the historic town of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt and its thirty or so hamlets lie over 7500 hectares of land, forests, cherry trees, olive trees and vines.
The Clos Savornin nests in a residential environment 900 m from the center of the village.
The residence offers you the peace and quiet of a hamlet with 22 top of the range villas enjoying a clear view over the countryside and surrounding hills.
Outdoor excursions
The Luberon region offers numerous activities with a natural backdrop: trekking
and horse riding, canoes, golf, caving, paragliding, ballooning…
… the intimacy of a provencal hamlet
Echoing the authenticity of the village of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, its steep lanes, ramparts, fountains, washhouses or former windmills, the architecture of the Clos Savornin provides elegant outdoor spaces for stays basking in the Provencal art of living: lanes of colourful houses, small paved squares, refreshing fountains, shady ‘boule’ pitches, old fashioned washhouses…
Charm, comfort and intense pleasure
The noble materials selected by our architect when designing the Clos Savornin (aged tiles, cornices, traditional coating…) emphasise the authenticity and the liveliness of the local art of living. The villas offer beautiful living spaces, a vast living area extended by a shady terrace, a separate dining room and a fully fitted kitchen. With master suites and other bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, the atmosphere revolves around comfort and intimacy, whilst the entrance hall, the garage, the parking spaces and the cellar provide all the functional features you require.
Each of the villas has its own heated pool and landscaped garden, guaranteeing you intimate and restful stays in the shade of olive and hackberry trees, savouring the perfume of thyme, sage and lavender.
Contemporary elegance
The custom-made furnishings and décor, managing to mix modern taste with Provencal touches, are designed and brought together by our interior designer. We have chosen maximum comfort and new technology to equip our villas: two-way air conditioning, kitchen fitted with an American fridge, flat screen TV with foreign cable channels, sound system.
