Stunning location

Definitely need a car but so much to see in a short drive. Had a few problems finding the property due to no signage on gates and quite poor communication with Holidays Provence. They sent a gps but it wouldn’t open on our phones. Very peaceful location only the birds for company! Overall we had an amazing stay.

Lot's of positive's but needs some TLC

I'll start with the positives as we really enjoyed our stay. Roman was very helpful when we called with a couple of questions. The gite is perfect if you have a dog or children I guess). The garden is very safe and the access to the river is great so they can cool off in there. The location could is fantastic, between two really pretty places. The swimming pool is quite small but very nice, as is the seating around it. Now to the slight negatives; With some tiny improvements we would give the gite 4 stars instead of 3. It was a bit underwhelming on arrival to see some really tatty garden tables and chairs, a rusty old barbecue and an old bath tub in the garden. Also a lot of the plants were dead. If these had been simply removed or even replaced, it would have been a lot better. Also, there was no booklet with local information, such as supermarkets and opening times etc which would have been really helpful. Lastly the toilets were a bit smelly. I feel a bit bad making these criticisms as we really enjoyed our stay but hopefully our well meaning advice will be taken on board and the property will be even nicer in the future.

Fantastic location.

We had a wonderful week's stay in this lovely gite. The property is in a very secluded and quiet location but only 1k walk to plenty of bars, shops and restaurants. The pool was beautiful and warm and surrounded by fig trees with a wonderful view of the nearby aquaduct. Our little dog loved the private access to La Sorgue that ran past at the end of the garden! The owner Roman and his family were absolutely delightful and could not have been more helpful. The gite was very tastefully decorated and had everything you could need for a fabulous relaxing holiday. We would most definitely return. Thank you Roman.

Eine wirkliche Perle ! Ein besonderer Ort mit wirklich schönem Pool und einem Garten , der gut für die Seele ist.Wer gerne selbst kocht muss allerdings mit einer eher sparsam ausgestatteten Küche rechnen, wir konnten uns gut versorgen und haben vor allem die leckeren regionalen Tomaten auf der Terrasse genossen !Die Übergaben waren superschnell und freundlich und unkompliziert! Danke !

Nous avons passé un séjour très reposant et très agréable avec le bruit de la Sorgue, le chant des cigales, les libellules bleues. Le gite est très bien aménagé ; belle déco, fauteuils et lits très confortables. Mention spéciale pour la tonnelle de vigne vierge et la plancha électrique. Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir. Merci pour votre accueil.

Superbes photos !

La présentation est parfaite, le réel pas partout: un wc est inutilisable car pas fixé et obstrué par le lave-linge. Mais dans l'ensemble très jolie petite maison dans un cadre superbe. Roman et son beau-père très sympathiques et serviables.

La casa cumple todas las expectativas para pasar unos días de relax.

Situación extraordinaria en un entorno maravilloso con acceso directo al río Sorgue con aguas cristalinas. Lo que hemos echado en falta y deberían poner son mosquiteras en ventanas y puerta principal ya que hay muchos mosquitos y también algunos puntos de luz en el jardín para poder ver el exterior y disfrutarlo por la noche, por lo demás para repetir.
