We spent many years holidaying in the South of France but fell in love with this area. The light is beautiful and the countryside is very pretty; there is lots to do and see in the surrounding areas, yet where we live it is quiet and peaceful.
Provence is beautiful throughout the year. In the Spring it is the cherry trees, poppies and birds; in the Summer the lavender and Summer plants; in the Autumn the reddening vine leaves. In the winter there could be snow on the ground one morning but it might be warm enough to sit outside for lunch the next day.
When we found the house we immediately fell in love with it. Many new houses in the area have small and featureless rooms. All of the rooms in our house are big and light and we love the ceramic tiles on the floors which add character.
There was lots to do. The House had not been lived in for over 10 years and the garden was completely overgrown. There was a bush growing in what is now the ensuite bathroom!
It took us nearly four years to re-furbish the house but we feel it's now a lovely home. We've stayed in gites a lot over the past 5-10 years and had clear views as to what was important. We've made sure that there is plenty of storage in each room, that there is lots of kitchen equipment, that there is air conditioning in the bedrooms and Wifi. We've included a library as a place to chill out if you want to.
We hope that you will come and stay in our home from home, and we hope that you will enjoy yourselves.
