About this property
JDV Holidays - A perfect, private cottage and PRIVATE pool and A/C
Gite St Sophie is perfect if you’re looking for calm, tranquillity, open space and ‘real Provence’ It sits in a lovely location, at the end of a farm track, surrounded by 7 hectares of vineyards. Throughout the year the landscape and colours change and the in summer the vines come right up to the terrace of your gite.
The traditional gite is well furnished and includes a few interesting and antique artefacts. The living area has French doors leading onto the terrace and is comfortably furnished with a leather sofa bed, coffee table and TV, as well as a welcoming open fireplace for the Wintertime and air-conditioning for the Summer months.
The kitchen/dining area is well equipped with all the appliances you’re likely to need, in including a fridge, freezer, oven, washing machine and dishwasher. There’s also a large solid wood dining table and chairs for up to 4 people.
The double bedroom is located up a set of ‘millers’ stairs in the attic. The stairs may take a little getting used to, but the view once you’re up there is great.
Please note, not suitable for toddlers or guests with low mobility
There's a sofabed in the lounge, ideal for one adult, or 2 small children.
There’s a shower room with separate WC.
During the summer, you’ll probably spend most of your time outside, enjoying the beautiful Provencal sunshine. To allow you to do this, the property has a shaded terrace, as well as a private garden and BBQ. Garden furniture is supplied to allow you to sit back during those long lazy days and enjoy the view. There’s also loads of car parking space.
There is your own private swimming pool, (8m x 4m), ideal for taking a quick dip to cool off.

Why they chose this property
Maison très agréable, discrétion des propriétaires. Calme absolu, l`environnement et la piscine sont des plus appréciables.
Very pleasant house, discretion of the owners. Absolute calm, the environment and the swimming pool are most appreciable.
E, France, August 2020
We had an excellent week, in the calm, in the sun, by the pool ... The house is perfect for a week of lazing around and the owner is very pleasant.
A, France, 2020
Cosy rural little house with all amenities necessary and a refreshing private pool with pool beds and big umbrella. Friendly reception by the owners, who are available but very discrete. The holiday home is on their property but due to the distance and vegetation between both houses you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. Pertuis - which is only a few minutes away by car - is a nice little town with some good restaurants and bars and everything else you need for "survival"
Mr R, Netherlands, 2020
Le gîte est formidable et le propriétaire encore plus . Nous avons adoré le lieu , le gîte et l’ambiance .. Special remerciement aux deux compagnons à 4 pattes qui ont été les meilleurs amis de nos enfants pendant cette semaine ... à recommander Et bien sur nous reviendrons
The cottage is wonderful and the owner even more so. We loved the place, the gîte and the atmosphere. Special thanks to the two 4-legged companions who were our children`s best friends during this week ... to recommend and of course we will be back

Thank you!
It is pure bliss!!

What makes this property unique
We loved the pool after a hot day exploring the villages, the isolation in the the vineyards, easy access to town if needed, a bottle of wine from our hosts.
Mrs B, Australia, June 2018
We had another really great stay at Gite St Sophie. The cottage is as lovely as ever and we ended up spending most of the week relaxing at home.
Please can we book the Gite for next year?
CEH, UK, June 2018
Excellent and perfect : a haven of quiet surrounded by vineyards, a nice swimming pool and a large garden unoverlooked. The house is nicely decorated and confortable (air conditioning in each room).
Moreover the owner is discrete, very friendly and take care of our well-being.
We will keep in mind this rental for future holidays, and fully recommend it!
Mr C, August 2017
Great! Privacy, safety and the amenities were very good. We appreciated that the owners were there if we needed them but that they respected our privacy. Booking again for 2018!
Ms E, UK, July 2017
Notre séjour c"est très bien déroulé, nous avons passé d"excellentes vacances.
Le gite St Sophie correspond bien à la description, mais avec des plus, ce qui est une agréable surprise.
