House Gordes. Classified 4☆ tourism

Very spacious and well equipped. The outdoor and pool area was really excellent with lots of space to either enjoy the sun or find some shade.Indoor area very spacious and well laid out. Kitchen very well equipped.

We chose well! It was our honeymoon and we could not have chosen better! Odile is such a lovely lady. She met us after our three day trip from Kent, UK, with a lovely big smile. We were shown around the beautiful house and we understood each other well. The villa is beautifully decorated with lots of tasteful and almost personal items/ornaments scattered about. The kitchen is very well stocked with everything you would ever need - even large wine glasses! The bed was very comfortable - we stayed in the downstairs bedroom which, even when it was hot, remained cool. We travelled around the local area, there is so much to see. Gordes is an amazing perched village with some fab shops/boutiques and incredible photo opps. We also visited Chateau Neuf du Pape, not so pretty but the wine is magical! We visited The Abbaye de Senanque which, as planned, we saw in July at Lavender time. What a sight! Ménerbes is lovely and it happened to be market day which was a bonus, and easy parking! We left the market with a much lighter wallet! Apt has a nice shopping area. Roussillon is a must! Goult is lovely. Lacoste and the Marquis de Safe’s castle, again beautiful views. Pont Julien is worth a quick visit too. Sault is also worth a trip. The Super U at Coustellet is a great supermarket with a fuel area too. We got all we needed in there. Only 10 mins drive away. What more can we say! You’d be daft to miss out on this fabulous villa! Superbe!

Très belle maison à proximité d’un des plus beaux village de France Propriétaire très sympathique

This was one of the better-equipped and maintained houses we have rented. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking gear, well beyond what we needed for a short stay. The house is charmingly decorated - it feels like a real home rather than a generically-furnished rental. Given the so-so weather, we didn’t use the pool but did enjoy sitting in the yard a couple early evenings.Location is central for the Luberon as well as the Southern Rhône wine towns. The house is on a fairly busy road but traffic noise did not bother. There are a lot of walking trails easily accessible. I will note that although the listing said English was one of the languages spoken, this turned out to not be the case. We got by ok with phone translation when the caretaker showed us around, but it did make everything a little more difficult. Not a complaint, as we were the ones out of step with the language of the country, but as a comment for other French-challenged renters. I also might suggest that the house provide a page or two of written instructions as a leave-behind, as we particularly struggled with how to operate a couple of the older appliances (e.g. oven). Overall, we were very pleased with the location, spaciousness and comfort of the house and would consider renting it again if we come back to the area.
