From the kitchen terrace and garden, it gazes over hills and valleys to watch the last rays of the sun over Caseneuve and the distant Alpes de Haute Provence.
Les Lantins offers everything for a perfect Provençal holiday…

The pool:
Twenty metres long and 2.5 metres wide, it's the lap pool with the big, big view! Nestling beside two huge cherry trees and flanked by a honesuckle hedge, it stretches out towards the Luberon hills. Swim at night, too, with the pool lights on. So romantic!

Les Lantins is a dream!

Our stay at Les Lantins lasted a full week in early November. The weather was beautiful, Provence was stunning and the experience was perfectly augmented by the beautiful Les Lantins. Firstly, the house is BIG. The art is fantastic, the kitchen is fabulous, the grounds are stunning. Though Saignon is tiny, it's incredbly charming.. Honestly, you won't spend too much time up there as there isn't much to do. We got our morning Cafe au Lait and pastries at Chez Christine in Saignon every day- the apricot croissant is to DIE for. From there, we generally went on excursions to Cassis, St. Remy de Provence, Cassis, Mt. Ventoux (A MUST DO!) and Les Baux de Provence. The location is a little remote, but if you like feeling like you've "gotten away from it all", then Les Lantins is perfect. Apt is just a quick drive away and Bonnieux (the BEST restaurant - L'arome, eat there) Gordes (stunning.. grab a Pastis and sit out on the patio at Cercle Republicain), Aix, are all within a short drive. Our rental car was equipped with a GPS navigation system - this is a MUST HAVE. It's so incredbily helpful navigating the sometimes windy roads of the Luberon. The grounds are practically covered in fresh rosemary and the fresh herbs from the garden are amazing. Overall, I can't speak highly enough of this property. The owner is an absolute sweetheart, the friendly cat that comes around every morning is so charming, and the kitchen.. the kitchen is reason enough for us to come back! We hope to return ASAP... The trip was truly amazing and the house was the best homebase for us while we were there. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories! Yes, we do wish that there was a bit more outside lighting at night (Maybe I just spook easily - I'm a city boy after all) and that there was a bigger television (hey, you're in Provence... Don't watch TV!) but these things didn't detract from our time at Les Lantins in the slightest. We can't wait to go back!
Recommended for:Adventure seekers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
