Wunderschön, malerisch, gemütlich, sehr wohnlich, schönes Mobiliar und umfangreiche Ausstattung, sogar eine X-BOX mit Spielen und 2 Controllern verfügbar, Parkmöglichkeiten direkt am Ortseingang nutzen, Dachterrasse und Wohnraum waren Highlight des sozialen Miteinanders, Kommunikation mit der Verwaltung war ausschließlich freundlich und hilfreich
Great holiday in a cosy and beautiful, well-kept and well-equipped home. The village is lovely and the area full of beauty at every turn, and the owner and manager were equallly a pleasure. Thank you.
Très chouette séjour entre amis dans ce beau village du Lubéron. Petit bémol pour le logement de 6 adultes : seules 2 chambres sont réellement équipées de lits confortables. La troisième chambre n'est équipée que d'un "futon" peu confortable.
We really enjoyed our stay at St Martin de Castillon. This is a characterful, historic, village house which has clearly been treasured it's owners and is well furnished and very well equiped (the opposite of a characterless holiday let). The house itself is extensive, with a large living area and even it's own cellars! We enjoyed using the terrace for our meals and it's view. The third bedroom gives access to the terrace, so feels more like a living space with a sofabed, but this worked well for us and, being on a seperate floor, had sufficient privacy from other spaces in the house.The village is attractive, but not over-touristed, and has a good village shop which caters for most everyday needs and a popular cafe bar. We enjoyed the whole area of the east Luberon which has beautiful landscape and villages, but without the larger numbers of tourists further west in the region. Communication with Pierre Stefan was excellent. We wish we had booked for a week or more rather than the three nights we stayed.
Maison atypique, bien décorée et confortable
La terrasse offre une vue imprenable sur le grand Luberon. Marie Line assure un support parfait et est très disponible merci à elle
Thank you for a lovely week in the Luberon - the house is exactly as the photos suggest. Beautiful interiors. It was comfortable with lots of ways to keep warm given how early in the year this was. It was a lovely surprise to find that the village still has a bar, epicerie and patisserie. It was great fun exploring local villages and enjoying the views of the beautiful Luberon. We’d love to return Thank you Pierre-Stefan (and Nadine) for your welcome and help. We’d also add that we didn’t visit any wineries (vineyards) so can’t score that aspect of the review.

Everything We Hoped For
We loved our stay here! It came to feel like home so quickly. The photos accurately show the beauty of the the building and rooms, and we took full advantage of the rooftop for coffee in the early morning and wine in the evening. Very relaxing.
We didn't lack for anything while here. The caretaker gave us a nice tour and checked on us regularly to make sure all was good.
I'd love to have the opportunity to stay here again.
The house was just great - quirky and full of character. It’s on 3 levels (four if you count the basement) and the top floor has a roomy balcon where you have swifts for company and glorious views over the Grand Luberon. There’s a decent grocery store in the village and a very pleasant cafe/bar. Can highly recommend both house and village but beware the church bells which chime on the hour & half-hour, day and night.
This property is fully equipped and has plenty of space. The location of the property means it remains cool even on hot days. The village has plenty of character and yet is not too busy. The local bar is very welcoming and the village shop well supplied with fresh bread and other essentials. Several other beautiful villages are a short drive away. The town of Apt is worth a visit too. There is plenty of hiking close by, some from the village and some in the Luberon, which can be seen in the marvellous view from the roof terrace of the property. The host Christophe stayed in good touch with us and was very happy to offer advice. We had a fabulous holiday, thank you!

Perfect Provence
This beautiful house in a wonderfully picturesque Provencal hillside town was such a treat! We are a family of five and had the best town. St Martin is everything you imagine of the Luberon...impossibly quaint and picturesque. There is a bar/restaurant - Bar de la Fontaine and a well stocked tabac. The village pool is a great spot to hang out with locals and other tourists (only downside is it closes at 6pm).
The house itself is beautifully and tastefully decorated. The rooms are large, beds are great, kitchen is well stocked. The views from the rooftop terrace are superb and a great spot to pitch up and enjoy a long lunch or dinner as the light fades over the Luberon.
While St Martin is a little removed from the usual haunts such as Menerbes/Bonnieux/Gordes, they are all within an easy 30 minute drive, it also encourages you to visit other wonderful spots that you may not otherwise venture to like Banon, Simiane and St Saturnin.
We couldn't recommend Pierre Stefan's beautiful home or St Martin more highly. Beautiful!
Inmitten der Fußgängerzone eines kleinen Dorfes haben wir das großzügig ausgestattete Ferienhaus sehr genossen. Die sehr gute Sauberkeit des Hauses, die Stille im authentischen Bergdorf, die selbstverständliche Freundlichkeit der Bewohner und die gute Betreuung durch unseren Nachbarn Christophe trugen zu unserem Wohlfühlgefühl bei. Es war ein guter Ausgangspunkt zu unseren Wanderungen und Ausflügen. Herzlichen Dank dafür.
This house is a treat - spacious, very personal decor, everything working well, kitchen well equipped, fabulous mountain view from the top floor terrace, friendly and helpful neighbours. Village itself lovely, very laid back and quiet and a great location for trips into the surrounding area.
Très belle maison, bien située et avec tout le confort ! A portée des plus beaux villages et sites du Luberon ! Je recommande cette maison en famille ou entre amis…
Das Haus liegt in einem ruhigen und authentischen Bergdorf. Es ist sehr schön und liebevoll eingerichtet und bietet alles, was man braucht. Besonders gefallen hat uns die geschützte Dachterrasse mit Blick über den Luberon. Die Lage ist zentral, so dass wir die Region gut erkunden konnten.
Herzlichen Dank für die unkomplizierte Kommunikation und den netten Kontakt zu Christophe and Marie-Line vor Ort. Wir hatten eine sehr schöne und entspannte Woche.
La propriété est très jolie, aménagée avec coeur et très agréable; Je ferais tout de même une remarque indépendante du logement : le son de la cloche qui sonne toutes les demi heures est désagréable surtout la nuit.
We had a great time in Saint Martin de Castillon. The house was really nice and clean. The terrace view is amazing and the location was perfect for exploring the region. Check in and check out was simple. We really enjoyed our time here!
A very large and well kept property. Everything there you’d need.
The rooftop view is amazing ! St Martin is central to many places and well worth staying.
Très belle maison de village, très agréable pour y séjourner, c'est comme à la maison : on s'y sent bien immédiatement !

Why they chose this property
Away from the crowds of holiday-makers, you will spend a quiet stay and meet some friendly people at the local swimming-pool during the day and at the "Bar de la fontaine" at night in this very authentic and pedestrian village located in the Luberon. You will also have the opportunity to take a walking or biking tour to discover on your own this beautiful "provençal" site
