Grand Village House with Pool - Reviews page 2
Idyllic!
We spent two weeks here and cannot imagine a more wonderful holiday! The house is amazing: charming, comfortable, beautiful and spotlessly clean... an astonishing combination of attributes that we've never before found in a rental house in Provence or elsewhere, nice as many have been over the years. The courtyard has an enormous table under a tree, just outside of the kitchen and every morning and evening our family and friends would gather for croissant, salads, endless rose and white wines, home made meals and delicious moussaka from the local butcher + deli. The patio is next to the lawn which stretches to a lovely cool swimming pool. The younger generation could leave the table, swim, read, play, and then come back to where the elders were still discussing art, food, and the views of the luberon and then go again. It was heaven. Nearby kayaking down the Sorgue river, ropes courses, beautiful villages, ruins, and farmers markets were how we spent our days. There are other things: hiking, biking, cooking courses, etc for the more energetic, but we've left those for another trip. The village of Cabriere d'Avignon is ideally situated to see all of the best of Provence with just what one needs: bakery, restaurant, butcher, and epicerie all within walking distance... and nothing else. No attractions to draw an endless stream of tourists or busses. It feels, it is, a village with real people, real families, and all the calm and wonder that brings. We cannot, any of us, imagine a more perfect holiday, and it was perfect entirely because of the house. We have already planned our return next year.
An enchanting stay...
This beautiful home was the base for a wonderful holiday with our UK family in the Luberon. Our hosts were fantastic providing friendly advice and ensuring we had everything we needed for the stay. The lovely village of Cabrieres d'avignon is ideally located within easy access of all the major Luberon sights, close to supermarkets and only a short drive to Avignon. We loved the market at Coustellet for its abundance of local produce and traders providing plenty of samples! Our only regret is that we couldn't stay for longer....highly recommended!
