The Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur / Vaucluse region
Situated in the Luberon National Park, between La Bastidonne and Pertuis (6 km), 25 km north of Aix en Provence. The closest big city is Marseille, with its leisure and commercial ports. Ferries from here go to Corsica and Sardinia and further afield across the Mediterranean sea.
The Vaucluse is home to ancient stone settlements and pittoresque villages perched on high rocks such as Gordes and Roussillon, providing many day trips and afternoons out and about. A major Roman road runs along the north side of the Massif, that led from Italy to Spain passing through the Roman town of Apt. Ancient ruins and forts barely surviving the Wars of Religion tell astounding stories to visitors of this area rich in history.
The Luberon is mainly dry and arid, made up of limestone cliffs, rocky plains and pine forests. Lavender, thyme and rosemary grow naturally and provide a sweet scented air on hot days. Canals, rivers and lakes lace the region, the cool water and green banks providing a cool haven for wildlife and bathers alike! The climate is fairly hot and dry from may through to the end of September, with temperatures averaging already around 25 degrees in June.
Pertuis area
Set in a park of 30 hectares of vineyards and pine trees, south of the Luberon Mountain range. Small river nearby. Pertuis town centre is 4 km away, tennis: 3 km. A Provencal market is held every Wednesday and Saturday morning in Pertuis.
30km from Aix en Provence town centre where many shops, boutiques of all kinds and literally hundreds of restaurants line the streets.
Set in the heart of the countryside though not isolated, amongst pine forests and vineyards, overlooking the Luberon valley. Absolute peace and tranquility, birdsong and squirrels.
