Les Cigales is a two-story, Provencal-style house situated in a small, quiet cul-de-sac in L'Isle sur la Sorgue ("The island on the Sorgue river"). L'Isle is one of the prettiest and most unique villages in Provence, being situated at the parting of the River Sorgue, which flows here and there around the town, enhancing its already considerable charm. The house is on 1000 square meters of land, with a totally enclosed garden, which has a pond with koi; olive, fig and persimmon trees; an entrance arch smothered in eating grapes and kiwi; and a large black mulberry tree for shade on the terrace.
On the ground floor, there is a large living room with fireplace with 2 sofas, armchair,
2 leather Club chairs, which are fashionably "shabby chic", and large upholstered stool.
