About this property

A wooden house in the meadow in the heart of Haute Provence

The house is a recent construction with a wooden frame. I wanted it to be ecological, comfortable, and functional. It is located in a natural meadow, surrounded by wild moorlands, grasslands, thyme and lavender fields, and forests with oak trees and pines. It offers absolute calmness. From 600 m of altitude, it dominates the village of Noyers as well as the Jabron River, a torrential river where it is nice to go refreshing in summer. Here, the sun is our loyal friends and it reminds us that we are in Haute Provence, where there are still olive trees and fig trees. The house, which is completely independent, has a total surface of 52 m² and is ideal for 2 people. (It is possible to host a couple with a baby or a young child). There is a big living room with fitted kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower and an independent toilet. With its impeccable comfort, you will have all the facilities you desire: modern and functional household appliances, television, Wi-Fi access, a living room where you can relax, a workspace and a library to read and relax. Entirely on the ground floor, two big picture windows give you access to a wooden terrace with a pergola where you can have your meals in front of the landscape and rest on deckchairs; unless you prefer the lawn terrace. The meadow that surrounds you as well as the hedgerow of centenary trees will engage you in moments of relaxation or meditation in a hammock or a deckchair. Jabron Valley, originally a land of tradition and culture, will surprise you with its wild and imposing landscapes. You can get to know it in several ways: on foot, by horse, by bicycle. There are many hiking trails and you can take one directly from the house. The region is full of tourist attractions and famous sites. Sisteron of course and its citadel but also Manosque, Forcalquier , the Province of Giono, Gap and Serres Ponçon lake, Sainte Croix lake and the gorges of Verdon, inland of Dignes-les-Bains.

A great gite and an excellent host.

A very comfortable gite with a superb view from the terrace. Good walking country with the nearby Vieux Noyers abandoned village very interesting and with good views - plenty of useful information and maps in the gite. Francoise, the owner, was very helpful to us, especially when our luggage was lost by Air France. Thank you for a memorable stay.

cosy hideaway in beautiful surroundings

I had a fantastic 4 days staying in Francoise cottage. Francoise was very welcoming and hospitable throughout. I went with the purpose of photographing the stars under the night sky and I was not disappointed as the nights were clear and the view spectacular. The cottage has everything you need and a comfortable bed. If you want to relax and get away from it all this is definitely the place to stay for solo travellers or couples.

Un séjour de repos et de silence

Nous recherchions un lieu calme et silencieux et nous l’avons trouvé. Seul le bourdonnement des abeilles berçait notre sieste. La maison toute en bois est agréable, toujours fraiche spacieuses et bien agencée, tout le confort. Pas de vis à vis seulement un grand champ et un parterre de fleurs. Un accueil chaleureux et une propriétaire sympathique qui fait tout pour offrir à ses hôtes un séjour agréable. Sisteron à 10 mn avec des petites rues piétonnes offre aux touristes les joies de chiner. Je recommande vivement.

Havre de paix bien réel !

Venus pour profiter de la région pour faire un maximum de vtt et nous ressourcer le plus au calme possible, nous n'avons vraiment pas été déçus. Ce havre de paix mérite bien son nom : quel plaisir de rentrer en fin de journée après de difficiles sorties vélo et de se retrouver dans ce gite et cet espace paysager si bien conçus et entretenus. Mill mercis à sa propriètaire, Mme Riffet.

Perfect

We logeerden hier met 2 collega bakkers voor een opleidingsweek in Ecole International de Boulangerie. Het huisje was hiervoor ideaal gelegen: op 15 minuten van de school, met prachtig uitzicht om 's avonds te relaxen. Prima uitgerust met al het nodige. 1 slaapkamer met dubbelbed en een groot uitklapbed in de living. Zalige douche. De gastvrouw is super vriendelijk en verzorgt haar tuin met heel veel liefde. Je kan niet anders dan genieten van deze mooie plek.

Gite très bien situé : assis sur la terrasse, on fait face à la Montagne de Lure. Très propre, très bien équipé avec tout ce qu'il faut en terme d'électroménager, vaisselle, etc.. Joliment décoré.

Belle région : très beaux paysages, riches en centres d'intérêts culturels et beaucoup de chemins de rando pour les plus sportifs. Je recommande

Fantastisch!

Bijna 2 weken in deze fantastische vakantiewoning geweest. Van alle gemakken voorzien, koel en heerlijk ruim. Heerlijk terras, overdekt met groen maar ook gelegenheid om in de zon te zitten op het gazon. Bijzonder mooi uitzicht en ontzettend rustig. Goede plek om de omgeving te verkennen. Prachtige natuur maar vooral de rust is enorm. Françoise is ontzettend behulpzaam maar altijd op de achtergrond. Ze heeft ons alles verteld over de omgeving, zeer goede tips gegeven. En erg belangstellend. Elke dag kwam Isis, de hond, even langs, gezellig. Honden, het zijn er twee, zijn totaal niet tot last. Bakker in het dorp, bakt ook heerlijke pizza's! We hebben het ontzettend naar het zin gehad, zeker voor herhaling vatbaar! Jan en Rian van Riet

Heerlijke vakantie

Ruim en goed ingericht huisje. Mooie binnen- en buitenruimte ! Een oase van rust. Zeer fijne ontvangst door gastvrouw. Francoise verteld vol passie over de regio en al wat die te bieden heeft. Veel bruikbare tips over wat je allemaal kan doen (fietstochten, wandelingen, cultuur, uit eten, markten bezoeken). Prima uitvalsbasis om de streek te ontdekken. Wie van fietsen houdt, de montagne de lure is een aanrader. Je waant je een beetje op de Ventoux zonder het drukke toerisme.

peaceful gite in beautiful setting

This is the fourth time I have been to La Prairie. I come here mainly to indulge my hobby of astrophotography as the skies are dark and the weather good, but you can't guarantee clear skies at night even in the south of France! Francoise is very welcoming, helpful and never intrusive. Isis the dog is perhaps the most friendly dog you will ever meet. The view across to the hills is amazing, the gite is clean and comfortable and I am sure I will return again.

About the host

Hosted by Françoise Riffet

Host profile image
I settled some years ago in this peaceful and natural place, away from the summer hustle and bustle of tourist zones but at the same time in an ideally central location to discover Haute Provence. I like living a simple and authentic life here.

Why they chose this property

This house was constructed next to my main residence. I wanted to share this pleasure of being here and help other people discover a secret part of Haute Provence. This enables me at the same time to self-finance it.

What makes this property unique

I don’t just hand the keys to my tenants. I like helping them to take advantage of their stay with my knowledge about the region and all its resources.
