The house has been decorated by a local artist in the colors of Provence (honeyed ochres, deep blues and reds). The two-acre property is fenced, and large enough for strolls. It's out in the countryside, the house is shaded by huge old oaks and pines.

Wood flooring, large French doors in living leading to private terrace and garden on own side of the house. Spectacular view on vineyards and Mont Ventoux. Private entrance ans private parking.

VERY comfortable sleeper couch for two in living. Recently renovated with modern comforts. Wood flooring, large French doors in living leading to private terrace and garden on own side of the house. Spectacular view on vineyards and Mont Ventoux. Private entrance ans private parking.
LA PETITE PEYRIERE (one bedroom) for 2-4. Bedroom with French doors and shutters with view on private garden. Living-dining and kitchenette, bathroom, fully-equipped with private entrance and large private terrace on own side of the house.
Then, just outside the property are vineyards and tempting country roads. Thirty minutes away is Avignon, with its bridge, its ruins, its festivals, its miles of shops and restaurants. Closer by, just five minutes away, are two charming towns (Carpentras and Mazan) with restaurants, shopping, and street markets.
Mt. Ventoux can be seen from La Peyriere, and the peak - with its breathtaking view over hundreds of kilometers - can be reached easily. It is only 26 kilometers away, and the drive goes through a series of scenic little villages such as Gordes, le Barroux, Roussillon, and scenic attractions such les gorges de la Nesque. These are just some of the charms of this place.
La Peyriere is ideal for anyone who loves peace and restfulness, and a pool, and for anyone who loves visiting Provence, where there is so much to see and do.
In every direction are old villages with cafes and winding streets. There is also scores of other sites, including a huge underground fountain, an ancient printing press, and cellars for wine-tasting. The landscape is breathtaking.
