Gîte de vacance dans une bergerie rénovée en pierres avec piscine

This property takes your breath away at first sight and after two weeks still amazing.

The view was stunning and the house was picturesque with everything that was needed for a memorable stay.

A choice of two patio's one for breakfast and lunch and the other for dinner, both with fantastic views.

The pool was very inviting, the only noise was the water, the birds and the cicadas no traffic noise at all.

The owners Phillipe and Veronique make you feel as though you are their first ever guests. Always very helpful and knowledgeable but never intrusive.

Thank you both for your patience helping us with our limited French and making this one of our best holidays.

We hope to return soon.

Le Carredonne is set in a fantastic location with stunning views. Philippe and Veronique are excellent hosts, their home is beautiful and the guest accommodation is very clean, comfortable and has everything you need. There's lots to see and do in and around the area. Plenty of activities if you are the sporty type, but also lots of museums and beautiful buildings. This is a little piece of paradise where I will definitely return.

The setting of La Carredonne is nothing short of stunning. Picturesque, tranquil and heavenly!

The owners - Veronique and Philippe are charming attentive but not intrusive hosts. We were privileged to be told their “Grand Design” story (from ruin to a dream home). I found them inspirational and great conversationalists. Pre-arrival communication was very effective. On all occasions I got prompt helpful respond and excellent advice on our stay.

Accommodation is clean, comfortable and well maintained. The patio on one side and terrace overlooking the pool on another were excellent places to enjoy a glass (or two or three …) of wine. The pool area provides an idyllic place to sit and read or to have a dip in the cooling waters while gazing up at the mountains.

The location of the gite is a dream - quiet, great views and a fabulous infinity pool. You can walk, run or cycle for miles straight from the property (traffic free!). A lovely village of Fontaine de Vaucluse is 10 min walk down a steep hill. The village’s Sorgue river has plenty to offer, whether you prefer a slow-paced stroll, or you're more inclined towards action and adventure. There are plenty of enjoyable scenic restaurants and cultural landmarks along the river that deserve to be on your 'to-do' list: a mysterious spring, remains of the fourteenth century castle, the Petrarch Museum Library, the “Vallis Clausa” Paper Mill etc. In their own simple ways they all have stories to tell. You can take a canoe/kayak down the Sorgue river or go for a hike/walk (free hiking trail maps are available at the Fontaine de Vaucluse Tourist Office).

A charming town of L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue known as the capital of antiques, with many shops and galleries, and a large Provencal market every Sunday, is 15 min drive away.

We loved fascinating "perched" hill-top villages (Gordes, Bonnieux, Menerbes etc), spectacular vineyards and orchards of Luberon (all within 30-45 min drive).

We visited and loved the Abbaye Notre Dame de Sénanque, Pont du Gard, Salon-de-Provence, Avignon (all famous sites + the light show at the Palais des Papes), Marseille and my most favourite Aix-en-Provence.

Merci beaucoup, Véronique and Philippe, for sharing your dream place, yummy olive oil, fig jam and red wine (of course!) with us. We absolutely loved this place. We will definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

Die Lage der Ferienwohnung ist ein Traum - ruhig, super Aussicht und ein toller Pool. Die Besitzer wohnen neben dran und sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit, aber nicht aufdringlich. Sie haben uns gute Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt gegeben.

Wir waren mit unserer zweijährigen Tochter dort und das hat gut geklappt (Kinderbett ist vorhanden). Zur Info: die Treppe ins Schlafimmer ist offen, also mussten wir abends leise sprechen, damit wir oben nicht gehört werden. Oder man sitzt auf der schönen Terasse :-)

Wir kämen gerne wieder !
