Provençal Country Villa with Pool and Tennis Court in the Luberon Reviews

We stayed at La Jassine for two weeks in October as part of a House Swap arrangement. Prior to our arrival, we had positive communications with Paul and Sandra and decided to extend our originally planned one week stay by another week. This worked out extremely well for us.

La Jassine is a beautiful house in the countryside in Provence 70 kms north of Marseille. It is extremely well equipped and lacks for nothing. The house is just a few kilometres from Lourmarin which is one of the prettiest towns in France and which offers a range of very good eateries and artistic offerings. We visited a few of the local restaurants but in the main we cooked ourselves. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of space to move around both inside the house and by the swimming pool.

We had good intentions regarding using the tennis court and swimming pool (both of which are very well maintained). However, whilst we rested and relaxed for quite a number of days, we also used it as a base for radiating day trips to the many exceptional scenic wonders of the area such as Milau (amazing viaduct), Nimes (old Roman amphitheatre, tower, town square, tree gardens), Avignon (massive castle), Orange (old Roman amphitheatre), Camargue (flamingos and white horses), Pont du Gard (old Roman aquaduct), Marseille (lovely buildings and scenery), L’Isle-Sur-La-Sorgue (great market in a very picturesque setting), etc

We emphatically recommend staying at La Jassine
