Inside Mas Lavande Verquières Provence
Step through the front door of Mas Lavande Verquières Provence and you are greeted by an airy, open-plan living and dining area that forms the heart of the home. A wood-burning stove anchors the room, providing warmth on cooler evenings, while large doors open directly onto the garden terrace, flooding the space with that luminous Provençal light that painters have adored for centuries. The decor blends rustic elements with refined contemporary touches: think exposed stone walls paired with elegant furnishings, natural textiles, and carefully chosen art that echoes the surrounding landscape.
The fully equipped kitchen sits adjacent to the living space, designed around a generous breakfast table perfect for morning coffee and croissants. An oven and hob, dishwasher, American-style fridge freezer, a secondary fridge freezer, and a microwave-combination oven make preparing meals a pleasure rather than a chore. A door from the kitchen opens to the outdoors, allowing an effortless flow between cooking and al fresco dining.
Across the property’s five bedrooms, the design maintains a cohesive sense of calm sophistication. Rooms are spacious and light, dressed in soft linens and neutral palettes that reflect the Provençal countryside outside. Four well-appointed bathrooms serve the house, each finished to a high standard with quality fixtures. Throughout, modern amenities such as air conditioning and Wi-Fi ensure comfort without compromising the home’s authentic atmosphere. A dedicated spa and sauna area elevates the experience further, inviting guests to unwind completely after a day exploring the region.
Outdoor Spaces and Living
The grounds of Mas Lavande Verquières Provence are nothing short of spectacular. Mature trees frame the property, offering dappled shade and a sense of privacy that makes the outside world feel pleasantly distant. The private swimming pool is the centerpiece of the garden, flanked by sun loungers and surrounded by manicured lawns. It is the kind of pool you want to spend entire afternoons beside, a good book in hand and a glass of chilled rosé within reach.
A generous terrace extends from the living area, providing the ideal setting for outdoor dining. With a built-in barbecue at the ready, evenings here often unfold around long, convivial meals under the stars. The countryside setting means that the only soundtrack is birdsong and the gentle rustle of leaves. A private tennis court adds an active dimension to the estate, perfect for friendly matches before breakfast or in the golden light of late afternoon. Private parking ensures convenience for those arriving by car, and the flat, scenic roads of the area make cycling a wonderful way to explore the surrounding villages and lavender fields.
Exploring Provence and Beyond
The village of Verquières lies just 1km away and has a small épicerie for daily essentials.
