Having spent many hectic and peripatetic years working for the British Diplomatic Service in high-pressure jobs in Brussels, Paris, and Washington, we decided to take early retirement in 2011 and move to France.

We had been coming to The Luberon for many years on holiday and we had fallen in love with the gentler pace of life, the sunny weather, the gorgeous countryside, and the great food and wine. It was time to put down some roots!

After a long and exhaustive search we found Le Mas De Rosemarie, just outside the tiny village of Joucas. Situated within a stone’s throw of Gordes, Roussillion, Menerbes and Bonnieux it seemed to us like the perfect location!

We have put our heart and soul into developing what we hope is a perfect holiday destination: a little spot of peace and tranquillity where our guests can unwind, and from which they can explore the wealth that one of the most beautiful regions of France has to offer.

We look forward to welcoming you here and we hope to send you home with just a little of the magic we have found here!
