St Saturnin les Apt area

Beautiful old village with ramparts dating back to the 13th Century. Situated on the Vaucluse mountainside in the Parc Naturel Regional du Luberon. The village has a year round population which means it can support the two bakeries, butcher, grocery store, pharmacy and post office. The village is full of narrow side streets which reveal beautiful old houses with decorated doors and porches. There are three cafes, two small hotels and several restaurants. Tuesday morning is Market day but there are markets in nearby villages every day.
Apt on Saturday is very large and the farmers market in Coustellet is excellent. The famous antique market in L'Isle sur la Sorgue is held evry Sunday but the hundreds of antque shops are open all week.

A day trip to Avignon is highly recommended as is a day in Aix en Provence. You'll find plenty of wonderful walks in the surrounding 'garrigue'. Pathways are well marked and you can wander to Rustrel to see the Colourado Provencal, an ancient ochre quarry or on to Gargas for lunch under the huge plane tree in the square.
