Location & what to see

Lourmarin is a Provençal village in the Luberon, with narrow streets, stone façades and squares where you can take your time. The Château de Lourmarin, a Renaissance monument open to visitors and cultural events, is a landmark in the village. The surrounding area combines hilltop villages, wine estates and Mediterranean hills; the region appeals to travellers interested in heritage, walks and the landscapes of southern Vaucluse.

The château is 50 m from the guest house. In the village, the Fontaine Trois Masques, the Temple and the wine estates offer ideas for walks. Puyvert and Cadenet are other villages nearby, while Fort de Buoux, 6 km away, offers a chance to discover a historic site amid rocky scenery. Pertuis railway station is 14 km away; Marseille-Provence Airport is 37 km away. A car makes it easier to explore the villages and landscapes of the Luberon.

Spring and autumn are good times for sightseeing and hiking, when temperatures are milder. In summer, plan walks for the morning or late afternoon, then take a break in the village during the hottest hours. Wine lovers can visit local estates and, in September, see the grape harvest in progress in the region. A day can combine a visit to the château, a walk around Lourmarin and a trip to nearby villages, leaving time for the paths of the Luberon.
