A haven of peace surrounded by vineyards near Aix-En-Provence

Severine and Bernard were perfect hosts. Their villa in the heart of the Pourrieres vineyards is exactly as described in the listing. It is in a very quiet and beautiful location, surrounded by mountains and overlooking vineyards all the way across to Trets. The property is very well looked after, the kitchen well equipped, the bedrooms a good size and bathrooms clean and spacious. Outdoors there is a lovely area to sit in the shade and eat as well as a comfortable sofa on which to sit and catch the last of the days sun before it sinks below the mountains. The pool is a good size, with plenty of beds and parasols. The village has a well stocked supermarket, a very good boulangerie and a cafe/bistro which serves very simple but incredibly good food. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Pourrieres and would thoroughly recommend both the village and especially the property.

A very well-maintained house, technically well-equipped, great garden, beautiful pool, spacious grounds, everything clean and well-maintained, a quiet and pleasant atmosphere, pleasant hosts, always approachable, very suitable for dog owners. Conclusion: highly recommended for those seeking peace and quiet.

We were six in all, grandparents, daughter, son-in-law and two granddaughters, 10 and 7 years old. We had plenty of comfortable space together and apart in this well appointed home with all modern appliances, air conditioning, parking and lovely outdoor seating for dining and relaxation as you enjoy the beautiful views of the vineyard. There is even a barbecue for your use. We visited Aix-en-Provence, Cassis, Lourmarin, L’Isle sur la Sorgue and St. Remy from this location. Our hosts made us feel so welcome despite language difference. We both used translation apps.

The house and location were exactly what we wanted for our sister trip to Provence. I wanted somewhere quiet with a view (and a pool!) but centrally located and it was easy for us to do day trips all around Provence from the location. Pourrières and Trets have everything you need (boulangerie, grocery, restaurants) The house itself is immaculate and very comfortable, especially the beds, something I’m always worried about in a rental. The house is equipped so thoughtfully with everything you need. The views are unbelievable and Séverine and Bernard are lovely hosts who were very attentive and very patient with me wanting to try and use my French. Their wine is also fantastic! The best surprise was the fig tree on the property that was peaking during our September visit. Don’t come here if you want to spend most of your time in the big towns such as Aix, Nice or Arles but do come if you want to an enjoy a day in town from time to time and come back to the most peaceful, relaxing environment!
