We were well received by Pierre. We arrived very early in Vaison La Romaine, fortunately Pierre made sure we could check in early.
We hade a great family vacation.
We were part of 2 families staying at the house, 10 people in total. There was plenty of room for us all to spread out and not feel that we were on top of each other. Itâs an old house which meant lots of uneven steps to and from the garden, this wasnât an issue for us but worth bearing in mind if traveling with young children. The location is fantastic for trips into both the old and new town and so many places to visit less than an hours drive away. Pierre responded quickly to any questions we had and made us feel extremely welcome. We had a very memorable holiday!
All six of us - two 17 year olds and 4 adults - couldn't get over how lovely the house and its grounds were. We felt transported to a different world, lounging around the pool and terraces. So much space in the house to relax too - loved the moroccan lounge, and loved the fact that it was obviously a well loved family home, not just an impersonal rental house. Such a boon to have a lively town and the medieval village on our doorstep.
Many thanks too to Pierre for being so kind in picking up two of us at the bus stop, and being so helpful with local information.
Great large house with an amazing garden/park 5m from city center
We stayed for a week with 6 people in this house and we had a very good time. The house is very large (we didnât use all the rooms) and the terrace and garden/park are amazing. The garden has everything you want with small kids (pool, trampoline, a fairy tale house and a swing). The house is just around the corner from the medieval city and a 10m walk to the main square. The only negative point I can think of is that the kitchen could have been a bit cleaner when we arrived. I would wholehartedly recommend this house!
After a small amount of confusion we managed to get in after a very long journey.
The Pool and eating area are the focal point and we had breakfast, lunch and dinner outside and spent many hours by the pool.
Weather was perfect.
Both bathrooms are well equipped and the kitchen worked perfectly, Leading straight out to the eating area.
Living room is nice and cool to relax and read even at 30 degrees plus outside.
For location its perfect, Vaison is a large town with loads of bars restaraunts and loads of other shops, The market on Tuesdays was full of delicious but expensive food.
You can walk to town in less than ten minutes, You have the old city above you and chateaus within 30 mins.
If you love wine you are right in the middle of it and it is extremely cheap.
All i would say is the garden needs some attention.
Thanks Pierre.

This is a gorgeous very old house in a perfect location in Vaison-la-Romaine - just above the bridge to the main market street, just below the medieval town, easy to walk everything and very peaceful and quiet. Vaison is a WONDERFUL place to visit and a great base for exploring Provence.
Our host, Pierre, sent a detailed email when we booked the place, of things to do in and around Vaison- very helpful. He stopped by 3 days into our stay with wine for us! Very kind.
The grounds are beautiful but seriously in need of trimming and maintenance. We did take most of our meals outside, at the table provided, as our weather was perfect. The house has no air conditioning, which we didnât need, but just be aware.
Unfortunately previous tenant(s) had put away cookware and dishes poorly washed (like visibly dirty) so we felt we had to wash everything before using. ( Everything's else in the house was very clean.) There also were no essential supplies in the kitchen (like paper towels, trash and composting bags, foil, etc.) so we had to buy all those items right away.
The bedrooms are very comfortable, with wonderful linens; bathrooms/showers great, (there are only 2 toilets, both upstairs). The house is old with many steps in odd places, so care is needed and not suitable for anyone with mobility problems.
All in all we loved the place, and would love to return sometime!
Wir hatten mit 8 Rennradfreunden Ende April einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt in diesem idyllischen Landhaus und haben die Zeit in Vaison und in der Umgebung sehr genossen. Das gemeinsame FrĂŒhstĂŒck in der KĂŒche und die Erholung nach unseren Radtouren im riesigen Garten haben uns sehr gefallen. Pierre ist ein sehr sympathischer Gastgeber. Sehr zu empfehlen
Die Lage des Hauses ist wunderbar. Zu Fuà in die Stadt, auf die Burg oder an den Fluss - alles in wenigen Minuten erreichbar. Gleichzeitig bietet der Garten zahllose Möglichkeiten es sich bequem zu machen.
Die Anbieter waren sehr hilfsbereit und jederzeit erreichbar.
Geweldig. Pierre is een zeer vriendelijke gastheer die ons gastvrij ontving in zijn prachtige huis. De communicatie verliep vlot, Pierre spreekt uitstekend Engels en leidde ons door het huis en de tuin (eigenlijk is het meer een park). Het huis aan de voet van de burcht en de oude stad is authentiek en sluit naadloos aan bij de omgeving. De inrichting is origineel en gezellig.
We hebben een zeer relaxte week gehad met onze kinderen en hun aanhang!
Wer ein Feriendomizil mit Charme sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Es war nicht alles perfekt, aber wir haben uns einfach nur wohlgefĂŒhlt.
Neben 5 Schlafzimmern, 3 BĂ€dern, einer groĂen KĂŒche mit allem Komfort (u.a. SpĂŒlmaschine, KĂŒhlschrank, TiefkĂŒhler, Mikrowelle, Toaster, Kaffeemaschine) lassen sich noch verschiedene sonstige NebenrĂ€ume entdecken. In einem befindet sich auch noch eine Waschmaschine.
Der riesige Garten, u.a. mit Pool, WiesenflĂ€chen, KinderspielgerĂ€ten (Tischtennisplatte, Schaukel, Trampolin), Grillplatz, Feigen- und OlivenbĂ€umen, AnbauflĂ€chen von GemĂŒse, bietet sehr viele versteckte und verwunschene Ecken. Ein kleiner Bach flieĂt mitten ĂŒber das GelĂ€nde. Die verschiedenen Bereiche sind ĂŒber Treppen und schmale Wege zu erreichen.
Die Lage des Hauses ist optimal. Die Altstadt von Vaison-la-Romaine mit ihren Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und dem Markt ist in wenigen Minuten fuĂlĂ€ufig zu erreichen, ebenso wie die mittelalterliche Oberstadt mit der Burg.
Wir haben 2 tolle Wochen in diesem wunderbaren Anwesen verbracht. Die Mischung von Natur, Kultur und Trubel ist einzigartig. Die Gastgeber sind freundlich, kompetent und hilfsbereit. Vielen Danke! Gerne wieder.
Das Haus ist sehr schön gelegen und bietet viel Platz. Wir sind als 2 Familien mit je drei Kindern angereist und hatten eine wunderbare Woche, auch dank des schönen, groĂen Gartens und dem Pool.
Phillipe ist sehr unkompliziert und freundlich.
Wir wĂŒrden jederzeit wieder nach Vaison gehen!
