About this property

Stunning views of the Luberon close to Gordes 4 bed Family House and pool


The house is situated amongst a hectare of olives with beautiful views of the Luberon.
The sitting room is the feature of the house with vaulted ceiling and a large open fireplace. Light coloured stone floors throughout keep the house cool The 4 bedrooms are light and airy, fitted with ceiling fans. Two of which have en suite shower rooms. There is also a family shower room upstairs and a bathroom downstairs near the fourth bedroom. The 3 upstairs rooms have air conditioning. The downstairs room is much cooler and we find the fan is sufficient
The kitchen is modern and well equipped, with a SMEG range and air conditioning .
There is a table large enough for everyone to eat around. There is an additional open dining room beside the terrace for very hot days, although we usually eat at the table on the terrace under the tree
The 10 metre heated pool is surrounded by ample sunbeds for everyone, which can be placed in full sun or under a shady umbrella
If you having cocktails before lunch or dinner, you can sit on the comfy wicker sofa and chairs, alternatively go to the west facing sundeck
We have recently built a sundeck in the trees, completely hidden from view but with breathtaking sunset vistas

This area is full of unspoilt hill top villages with their weekly markets, to explore either by car, foot or on bicycle.
Gordes and Menerbes within 5 miles. Les Baux and Les Alpilles are 45 minutes away, or if you feel like a day beside the sea, Cassis is just over an hours drive. Electric and mountain bikes can be rented from the many shops in the village.
If you would rather go on horse back there is horse trekking from an ecole d'equitation a few kilometres away.

We enjoyed a fantastic stay. The property had everything, you were left not wanting for anything. When any help was needed, Annie responded immediately. We loved the house, the pool and the surrounding area. The town of Coustellet, 5nin drive away has all that you need and the supermarket has great local food, fish and meat. Overall, a very enjoyable 2 week stay. Thanks to Amanda and Annie!

Our stay in Provence
Some aspects of the house could use updating/refreshing but overall we were very happy with our stay! Highlights were the well-stocked kitchen and living room. A bit of an ant problem on the first day but we bought spray and it did the trick. Annie was very helpful in helping us find the house on the first day!

Amazing Location, House Needs Work
I read the reviews of this property and was so excited to visit with my family. The location can’t be beat, it’s perfect for day trips around Provence and so close to Gordes. The house itself needs a lot of work - it’s poorly kept, felt very dingy (cobwebs in the shower; we had to keep our shoes on the floors were so dirty; ants were everywhere so had to use spray; toilets with black on the inside rim). We’ve stayed in European country houses before & understand they can be rustic, but this home needs some major TLC. The beds were comfortable, but the linens/towels need a refresh.

Love this house. Our second time at this property. A lovely house with good accommodation and a lovely pool and terrace with a view to die for. We spent nearly 4 weeks there and loved every minute (even the two wet days). We had three sets of friends to stay whilst we were there and they loved it too.

A home away from home
We had a fantastic stay at this absolutely super property. The location was ideal to travel to near by villages and wineries. The view of the Luberon from the property was so tranquil. The aesthetics of the interior and exterior was so fitting for the location. The kitchen was very well equipped. Amanda was very responsive and helpful. Could not have asked for anything more to have made our stay more perfect. Thank you!!!

Excellent Stay
Truly enjoyed the location and accommodations at this secluded stone cottage located in an olive grove. Large and well-appointed kitchen, bright dining room and nicely furnished living room with speedy Wifi and many electrical outlets for our various devices. Plenty of comfortable beds and bathrooms. We particularly enjoyed outdoor dinners and use of the gas barbecue grill, and the view of the countryside from the patio and pool. The owner was very responsive to queries before and during our stay, and we truly appreciated her assistance. Would recommend to families looking for a peaceful stay in a lovely region.

A gem in Provence!
Our family of four adults spent three nights in Fontcaudette and we fell in love with everything about this wonderful home and property. On our arrival we picked cherries from a tree on the property and sat around the pool admiring the beautiful view! The village of Coustellet is a short drive and has everything one needs. We visited the local markets in Ménerbes and Ile Sur la Sorgue. One of the highlights of our stay was preparing dinners in Amanda’s large and well equipped kitchen and having late afternoon drinks on the patio. The house exceeded our expectations. Amanda was responsive and helpful from start to finish. We hope to return and highly recommend staying in this gorgeous home!

Our second stay here didn't disappoint - still a beautiful place
This year we stayed with three couples (last year there were 7 male cyclists in our group). So this property can cater for all needs! The weather was scorchio this year so the ceiling fans were an essential feature. As last year the location of the house made it ideal as a base for visiting all the beautiful villages of the Luberon and beyond. The supermarket in Coustellet is only 5 minute drive away so that is very convenient, the ideal source for great wine and beer! The good size pool got plenty of use of course as did the sunbeds. We really liked the dual outdoor eating options - a covered windowless building and a table in the shade of a lovely tree - so you can decide how Al fresco you feel! The kitchen is well equipped (apart from the lack of a microwave) and there are plenty of glasses for your preferred beverage. The living area is very comfy and stylish and the bedrooms are also perfectly sized for our needs. Of course the outstanding feature is the view across the valley to Menerbes so it's easy to find yourself sitting on the terrace with a glass of Rosé looking across to where you may well have dinner later that day! Very happy to recommend.

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful
A spectacularly beautiful French villa with all the amenities. We had two couples and it was perfect (An ensuite in each of our rooms.) Perched on a small ridge, with an excellent pool, it was the perfect place to explore (e.g. Gordes) and relax. 6 stars!

Absolutely Perfect
In searching for a home to rent in the Luberon I kept returning to Fontcaudette. My expectations were high and Fontcaudette delivered over and over. It is a beautiful home, perfectly located and equipped with everything you could possibly need to have a relaxing vacation. The kitchen is fabulous....well stocked with equipment including an ice maker. We were a family of four adults spending our days at the various markets in the surrounding villages, sightseeing and coming home each afternoon to the fabulous pool. Dinners were served outside in the beautiful covered dining room. I can only hope we will return to Amanda's lovely retreat. Thank you Amanda.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda Lakin

Host profile image
We live mainly in the country in Sussex. My husband is a production designer and Fireworks technician. He was responsible for the Queens Jubilee display . He was also winner of the Cannes fireworks.

I have several properties in the UK, which I manage.
My husband was trained as an architect and now has his own event production business

My parents built the house 40 years ago, as a holiday house and we have all spent time at the property every summer since.
Our children were brought up from babyhood with holidays at the house and now return with their own friends.

Why they chose this property

We love this area as it is peaceful but there are things to do, canoeing, bicycling, walking or just visiting all the beautiful ancient hilltop villages with their individual weekly markets. The relaxed restaurants and bistrots with mainly local cuisine.
You need your trainers not your stilettos

What makes this property unique

The house is very peaceful with modern amenities and very easy to manage with stone floors throughout. It is hidden from view of the neighbouring houses by the surrounding trees. There is over an acre of olive groves to explore.
