The apartment was ideal for us in its location and well thought out attention to detail.
A stream just outside where you can sit with a glass of wine and paddle your feet in the crystal clear water.3 min walk to all the restaurants and bars.
This was a perfect apartment for our stay in L'isle sur la Sorgue. Although fairly small it was very comfortable and extremely well appointed. The location was quiet - right beside the river where ducks could be seen beside the water-wheel and we always found a parking place within a few yards.
Christine and Thierry were thoughtful and helpful before and during our stay, even leaving bottles of water and wine in the fridge for our arrival. We loved the town and the surrounding area and already plan to return - hopefully to this apartment which was a home from home. Thank you Christine and Thierry.
Christine property owner met us on arrival and provided us with all the necessary information for our stay. The apartment has all the mod cons, with little extras provided. e.g. shower gel, laundry soap, cooking oil, bottled water etc.
It is in a quiet, ideal spot, within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops and most importantly the boulangerie. Parking was convenient and free, just across a footbridge. The train station was approx. 10 minute walk away.
The large Sunday market was fantastic and should not be missed!
Thank you Christine and Thierry

Well positioned apartment
The apartment was clean, spacious (for two), well appointed and well positioned in what is a busy town. Many original features. Other reviewers have made certain adverse comments about the bathroom. It was perfect for us. We had a hire car so the car park opposite was a bonus. Easy to gain access to the whole town. A peaceful retreat at the end of busy days!

The property was well appointed and met our expectations.
Upon arriving in Isle Sur La Sorgue we phoned Thierry to direct us to the property. Within a few minutes Christine arrived to show us the way and to help us unload our car. We were immediately impressed with the quick response by the owners and the appearance and cleanliness of the property . It was very well appointed and we suspected that it had been recently renovated including crockery , utensils and linen. The weather on our first few days was unexpectedly very hot and the owners came around to provide us with an extra fan to beat the heat . A greatly appreciated thought ! The location was really good and we appreciated the fact that we were able to park our car right in front of the property every day.
We really enjoyed our stay at Christine and Thierry’s apartment in L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue. The apartment is in town so you can walk to several shops and restaurants. It is well stocked with everything one would need to make meals, enjoy wine, or relax. The apartment overlooks the river and there is free public parking nearby. This is the second time we have stayed at this location and would stay here again on our next trip to the region.
The village is a real treat with its shops, water wheels, antique shops and restaurants. Such a restful experience, aided greatly by the great job hosts Christine and Thierry have done in providing a lovely, comfortable and fully-equipped apartment. We would highly recommend this vacation experience.

accueil chaleureux, appartement tres sympa, j'ai apprécié mon sejour, et le logement très agréable y a beaucoup contribué. Merci à Christine et Thierry pour leur accueil et leurs bons conseils.
It was fun to meet Christine and her introduction to the apartment and the city was wonderful. The very clean apartment is so comfortable with every amenity needed.
The apartment is right next to a canal and we enjoyed sitting on a bench watching the Water Wheel. The walk to the lovely old town is about 5 minutes.
The City was our favorite of the 4 we visited. The restaurants are excellent and the Sunday Market is truly an unbelievable event.
We would go back for sure!
Christine and Thierry’s apartment was the perfect home during our stay. Our hosts went out of their way to ensure everything worked perfectly. Christine came to visit us upon our arrival to explain the apartment as well as local activities. The apartment was clean and accurate to the VRBO description. The kitchen was well appointed, allowing home cooked meals. A small washer and dryer made laundry super easy. It’s small, so just be careful not to overload it. A huge bonus is the free parking just across the river. It made our daily excursions easy and stress free. L’isle Sur La Sorgue is lovely. Much authentic Provencial experiences within the town but never feeling touristy. We loved our stay and Christine and Thierry were perfect hosts!
Petit appart très sympa ! Je voulais un endroit où je ne devait pas prendre de voiture pour visiter, aller manger un bout et boire un petit coup. Très tranquille, bon lit, mon seul bémol est sur la cuisine, évier rectangulaire sans possibilité de remplir et où il reste toujours un peu d'eau. Pour le reste c'est parfait.
We loved l’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue! And we loved this apartment. Hosts Christine and Thierry were most helpful with hints about enjoying both. We’ll definitely plan on returning.
We enjoyed the quiet location and ease of parking (free) for this location on the north side of town. The owner met us on arrival and supplied a lot of information. The town's Thursday Market was lovely! We are clean freaks, & would've given it 5 stars, but the floor cleaning must've been missed.
Thanks very much to hosts, Christina & Thierry who met us at the apartment. They were lovely, friendly and helpful. Property was everything we could have asked for. Although had all the modern conveniences that we needed, it also had the character of the area that we wanted. Lovely apartment, great location, highly recommended. Christuna & Thierry, a note of thanks to you both for being lovely and thoughful hosts and providing us with a beautiful traditional apartment. Sorry not able to send a private note as continuing issues with our email. We hope to return.
We really enjoyed our 6-night stay in this wonderful apartment. It was a perfect base and we loved coming back to the small-town feel of Sorgues after our busy day trips. Christine meet with us on arrival and showed us the layout of the apartment and gave great advice about local attractions. Thoroughly recommend this property.
The location in Lisle sur la Sorgue could not be better. We were within a few minutes walk of every restaurant and shop in the old city. We checked in with Christine who was very nice but only speaks French. I could understand enough of what she said from my limited French but my husband couldn’t. We understand that property managers don’t need to speak English but a few phrases or words would help. The biggest disappointment in the rental is not their fault but ours. We didn’t notice online that there was no a/c and it was unusually hot and humid for October. Christine suggested we open the windows for cross ventilation which we tried the first night. Unfortunately it was an unusual season for mosquitoes and i was eaten alive. After that no windows were opened. Finally we asked Christine for a fan which she promptly brought us and saved the day. The rental was suppose to include once a week linen change. After the first week when no one came, we changed the sheets and washed them ourselves. Christine did offer to change them but two days after we already did it and never offered again. Upon check out we were asked to wash all the dishes and put them back in the cabinets as well as to take out all the garbage and recycles. Don’t understand if you pay for cleaning why you would have to do these things especially when you’re trying to get packed and out of there to catch a train. I know I must sound like I’m nitpicking but we have a rental house and always make sure the renter doesn’t have to do anything. And always include a bottle of wine and a basket of goodies at check in. Not necessary but a nice gesture. The apartment itself, while small, met all our needs - plenty of utensils and pots and pans for cooking. And the most adorable single drawer dishwasher which was perfect for two people. Best of all it had a washer which is suppose to dry too but we didn’t use the dryer part.
The lovely host, Christine picked us up at the train station when we arrived. The apartment is one floor up in a very clean and well appointed building, you can walk to anything from here. The train station is actually only a 10 minute walk away. Bed was very big and super comfortable and the shower was great. All in all a very nice place to stay.
Es handelt sich um ein sehr schönes, sehr sauberes und sehr gut eingerichtetes Studio (App.) unmittelbar am Fluss Sourge in unmittelbarer Zentrumsnähe des Ortes. Christine und Thierry sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit, wenn es etwas zu klären gibt. Wir haben uns dort ausgesprochen wohlgefühlt.

Why they chose this property
This property has the benefit of being recently renovated and is ideally located to allow access to all the towns services and attractions. There is ample parking close by if you have a car. If you like the look and location of this apartment, but feel it is not large enough to accommodate your family or party, there is a solution. The entire building was renovated by us to the same high standard and some of the other apartments we sold upon completion are being rented out as holiday accommodation by the new owners. If you want to keep your entire group in one building I can arrange for the others to be located in one of the other apartments, this of course would depend on availability. I will not charge any commission for this service and payment would be made directly to the apartment owner.
What makes this property unique
Quiet but not isolated, this apartment will be the ideal starting point for exploring our beautiful region.
