Cottages in the Heart of an Olive Grove
Le Mas de Marachan is an old Provençal farm dating from the 18th century. We welcome you to the heart of an organic olive grove located at the foot of the pretty medieval village of Lurs. You will enjoy its 30 hectares of preserved nature, where you can stroll freely, swim in the swimming pool, and admire its views of the village, the Durance valley and the Valensole plateau. The Mas de Marachan is located on the edge of the forest on a large network of hiking or mountain biking trails and close to the path to Saint Jacques de Compostela.
