Le Hameau de l’Horizon France

The story began with a dream… the dream of a family who discovered three old stone hamlets in the beautiful Luberon and who decided to restore them, to plant organic vines and fruit trees and to nurture the land with great love and respect.
The result is three beautifully restored stone hamlets spread out across 40 hectares of rolling hills and typical Provençal landscape.
Le Hameau du Berger,
Villa Les Terrasses and Le Hameau de l’Horizon.
Le Hameau de l’Horizon is a high quality, beautifully preserved hamlet with heated swimming pool and tennis court, perched up on a hill with breath-taking views across the landscape to Mount Lure and the mauve coloured hills of the Grand Luberon. Up here it’s all about nature, peace and extraordinary calm.
The hamlet is set in 40 hectares surrounded by unspoilt landscape with charming gardens designed by Jean-Noël Capart, which were designed to be in perfect harmony with the site’s past and the traditions of its people. The tennis court and boules pitch amidst the lavender fields provide moments of pure and authentic relaxation…
The ‘upper house’ is surrounded by two beautifully furnished terraces with exceptional views, three en-suite bedrooms with large en-suite bathrooms, large living room with magnificent fireplace and a large kitchen with dining area.
The ‘lower house’ has a lovely shady terrace opening out onto a beautiful garden area near the swimming pool, three en-suite bedrooms and a charming Provençale kitchen with dining area.
Le Hameau de l’Horizon is an exceptional estate offering peace and quiet and a real feeling of being at one with nature and this truly beautiful part of France.Viens is an ancient village with a medieval atmosphere boasting many original features including the clock tower and the two Maisons de Monier. Viens is located on the border of the Alpes de Haute Provence, the heart of the Luberon and surrounded by beautiful lavender fields, providing you with boundless activities and attractions for all the family.
Within the Luberon National park the charming villages and beautiful scenery offer an ideal setting for hiking, cycling, and even kayaking along the Sorgue. Many of the quint hilltop villages have maintained their original features with castles, caves and historical artefacts to discover, including one of the most spectacular at La Tour d’Aigues which still has its dungeons. Other activities include the Barben Zoo, Accrobranche and horse-riding.
The town of Apt, with its sprawling weekly market each Saturday and Tuesday is an unmissable trip. The town is full of charm and tradition with winding streets and ancient fountains. Indulge in the local cuisine and delicacies in one of the many pavement cafes with views of the Luberon and sweet smelling lavender surround you.
Le Hameau de l’Horizon is within close driving distance of the archetypal Provencal villages of Bonnieux, Lacoste, Menerbes, Gordes and Roussillon.
