It is situated in a perfect location in Provence: the heart of lavender country, Cotes du Rhone wine and a truly magnificent cuisine, subtly blending traditional French cuisine with those of Italy and Spain. Lovely gardens surround the private pool, including cypress trees, palm trees, and a cornucopia of fragrant and brilliant roses.

Forty-five minutes to Aix-en-Provence, two hours to Nice, three hours to Italy, four hours to Barcelona Spain or Lake Geneva in Switzerland. Truly a limitless vacation experience.

We had a great time. The kids loved your pool, we loved and appreciated your lovely home. I love the colors!

This is our 4th visit to Provence, but our first to La Lavande, and Sarrians. We sincerely hope it won’t be our last as we have had a very happy holiday here. Highlights? The amazing fireworks in Monteux (part of the fete de Ste. Jean), the all too brief visit to Aigues Mortes; Gorges de Nesque and Mont de Ventoux. Culinary highlights include the amazing tomatoes from the specialist seller in Orange (Thursday market – near the Hotel de Ville); a sublime meal with exquisite service at the Hotel Montmirail near Vaqueyras and the simple hospitality of Jean-Marc and his family at the St Croix. And do we even need to mention the beautiful surroundings and quite possibly some of the most stunning sunsets we have ever seen!.

Beautiful countryside, beautiful weather, and a beautiful villa to spend our first visit to Provence in. Everything we needed for a perfect holiday – we could ask for no more.

We had a truly amazing experience here in Provence. We loved your home. It was comfortable and cozy and right in the heart of beautiful Provence. It was great to return after long days of sightseeing and have a refreshing dip in the pool. Hd in ton been for your most helpful “yellow book” we may have missed some of the most picturesque sights. Roussillon, Gorge D’Ardeche, Carpentras. Thank you again. We will definitely return!.

What a beautiful place you have here. We were very much at home and enjoyed spending days here relaxing, reading and swimming as much as we did sightseeing. I hope we enjoy our coming week in Burgundy and Paris as much

We have had a wonderful stay in your charming house. Everything was perfect, especially the pool which was a lifesaver. A few recommendations for the guests: 1. Canoeing under the Pont du Gard 2. The views and castle at Les Beaux 3. Rent a bike- the country roads just go on forever 4. though decidedly non Provencal, the Go Karts will be a huge hit avec les enfants

After adjustment to the intense heat, aided by wine, cheese and a dip in the beautiful pool, we started our exploration of the region. Avignon, Arles, Gorge de Verdon – oh my – how beautiful (we paddled through the canyon). Then La Camargue and a great restaurant (same name) in the beautiful village in Aigues Mortes. Wednesday – Vaison la Romaine and wine tasting; Thursday Aix en Provence; Friday Marche in Carpentras – fabulous, plust Gordes and Abbaye de Senanque. We loved thehouse – it was perfect

We spent a wonderful week exploring the countryside and enjoying the food with a comfortable home to return to each night. Your house was perfect for us in all respects – for exploring the Vaucluse, for watching the World Cup and for relaxing and refreshing after long, hot days of touring.

The house is very cozy, comfortable and very easy to find. The traffic on the way to here was a disaster, but when we arrived here it was immediately forgotten. The swimming pool was superb. The flowers were beautiful. It was a great holiday. Thanks.

What a wonderful way to experience France. Coming back each night to a place of our own. We had fun exploring Provence
