Domaine de Marrenon

Domaine de Marrenon, rent of charm in Provence

Here, high up in the Grand LUBERON, “THREE(3) Charming villas for rent” facing south across a private valley, share the DOMAINE of MARRENON, planted with 120 acres of truffle oaks and lavenders.

It is easy to imagine yourself a thousand kilometers away from civilisation. You hear birdsong, and the rustle of cicadas. But there is no traffic or sight of modern life. Otherwise, it is the same magnificent view it has been for thousands of years: nature, mountains and sky.

For those who like walking, cycling, riding, swimming, peace and freedom it would be difficult to find a more secluded spot than “Domaine de Marrenon”.

And yet it is ten minutes from Bonnieux, Lourmarin or Apt, and less than an hour from Aix-en-Provence, Avignon or the international airport at Marseille.
