Charming 3 bedroom village house in the Drome Provençal for relaxing holidays

Located in the center of Venterol, a typical Provençal village, this 3 bedroom house is the ideal base to explore the Provence and its charming landscapes and villages.

Situated at the foot of a verdant hill-range 5 km outside the town of Nyons, Venterol is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. Its bakery and 2 cafes/restaurants provide for the immediate necessities while nearby Nyons and Valreas cater to all your shopping and leisure needs (restaurants, shops, supermarkets, regional markets, public swimming pools, historical sites etc.). Historical towns such as Vaison-la-Romaine, Grignan and Avignon are all within 25-60 minutes by car. For cycling enthusiasts, Mont Ventoux is around 25 km. from Venterol. The surrounding area also has many marked hiking trails and several rivers suitable for bathing. At the end of the day you can relax on the terrace with a glass of wine bought from one of the many vineyards in the area, e.g. in Vinsobres, Cairanne, Gigondas, Vacqueras or Chateauneuf-du-Pape. A day trip to the Mediterranean is eminently possible given that places such as Les-Saintes-Maries-de-la-mer and Aigues-Mortes are 160-180 km away.

The house itself is an old village house that sleeps 6-8 people. The ground floor consists of a living/dining room and open kitchen. Also a bathroom and washing machine are present at this level. A 13th century stone staircase leads to the 1st floor which has two bedrooms - one with a sleeping couch for two, the other with two (adjacent) single beds - a landing and a corridor leading to the outdoor terrace. The 3rd floor attic, with its own bathroom, sleeps a maximum of 4 on a sleeping couch for two and two single beds and looks immediately on the central Place du Chateau.
The house is situated next to the church whose bell tolls 24 hours. Personally we are not bothered by it but some people might find it disturbing.
