Villa Thyme

On the doorstep of the Luberon National Park, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region, between fragrant scrubland and mountain tops, lies Villa Thyme, a beautifully restored 16th century home with 360-degree views. This lesser-known corner of Provence will leave an impression on all who visit, as will the generosity of the people and the variety of the gastronomy. Nearby villages like Roussillon, Bonnieux, Ménerbes and Gordes continue to charm their visitors and alongside wild landscapes, provide mere glimpses into the rich history of the area.

Villa Thyme has undergone several transformations over the years, each time increasing in beauty and comfort to visitors. The décor has been chosen to compliment the same unique spirit of the property; noble woods, oak floors, exposed stone and beams, famous tiles from the legendary Vernin factory. The harmonious Provençal garden, with the peaks of the Mont Lure on one side and the dramatic heights of the Mont Ventoux on the other, was designed to honour the natural scenery and history of the land and features a 14m x 5m swimming pool, a tennis court, boules court and delightful lavender fields.

The property comprises three independent houses, all offering extremely comfortable living spaces. Maison Haute and Maison Basse both have 3 en suite bedrooms, fully equipped kitchens and a spacious living area with open fire for cooler nights. The third house, Le Mas de Sinety, new for 2021, boasts a further four en suite bedrooms and a dining area large enough to host all 20 of the domaine’s guests. The furniture is a mix of locally sourced antiques, and is complemented by soft linens and high quality bedding.

Objective Advice	Our sole aim is to understand the needs of each client and match them to exactly the right villa. We have no vested interest in any individual property.
Portfolio Integrity	All of our villas are listed by invitation only. No owner can pay for their property to be listed on the Red Savannah site.

The above benefits are not offered lightly. Red Savannah clients receive all the advantages and protections listed above, without paying a penny more. And remember, apart from the inability to match-make the right client to the right property, ‘Rental by Owner’ sites and other online sites will not only take on more or less any property willing to pay, but could expose the user to fraud. And if things go wrong, try getting hold of anyone to take responsibility! This is your holiday - Why risk it?

*Best Price Guarantee applies only at the time of enquiry and before the booking has been confirmed and paid. If you find a cheaper price for exactly the same property on a like for like basis and over identical dates, and where in the sole opinion of Red Savannah, no substantive pricing error has been made or private discount offered, Red Savannah will match the price. This guarantee is valid only when prices are advertised and compared in the same currency. Please note that no further amendments to prices can be made following payment of deposit.
