Hints and Tips This unspoilt village has a population of just over 2000 people many of whom live here all year round making it more vibrant out of season than some of it’s more touristy neighbours. It’s a true Provencal village retaining much of its traditional character dominated by a medieval ruined castle with its ramparts and towers and the 17th century windmill. Narrow streets, original stone houses, fountains and a central square shaded by plane trees, all help create a peaceful ambience.
The village has a Tuesday market where you can buy fresh local produce as well as Provencal gifts, wine and clothing. There are also traditional ‘fetes’ celebrated when there are displays of art, antiques and flowers in the village as well as the famous ‘Vide Grenier’ (similar to a car boot sale), which takes place annually on Bastille Day. The Fete Votive, three evenings of music and dancing, takes place in August.
There are three bars, two hotels and five restaurants providing casual and more formal dining. An excellent ‘charcuterie’, two ‘boulangeries’ and a Spar supermarket offer a wide variety of products and there is also a chemist, post office, two hairdressers, cash machine and newsagents.
The area has been noted for its olive oil and the local Moulin, which has a small gift shop, is just outside the village as you approach from Apt. Sylla, the local wine co-operative sells excellent Cote du Luberon and Cote du Ventoux wines. It also has an excellent gift shop and ‘Cheese’ restaurant.
It is possible to take part in a wide range of leisure pursuits nearby, including tennis, horse riding, paragliding, cycling and walking.
