The apartment
Renovated throughout, and designed to be easy to live in
The apartment was stripped back and rebuilt to an interior designer’s plans: new kitchen, new bathroom, new floors, new layout. Nothing is waiting to be done.
The main room is 32 m², with a wide window and a built-in bench running beneath it. It opens onto a fully fitted kitchen — induction hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer — where the window over the sink frames Mont Ventoux, the “Giant of Provence”.
The bedroom takes a 160 × 200 cm bed and a wardrobe, and has a ceiling fan. The bathroom has a large walk-in shower. Reversible air conditioning in the main room cools in summer and heats in winter. There is also a washing machine, electric roller shutters, and fibre broadband for working remotely.
The residence is quiet and secure, with parking on site and a shared bicycle room — useful in a town where many visitors arrive with a bike on the roof.

Vaison-la-Romaine
A real town, lived in all year
Vaison-la-Romaine sits in the north of the Vaucluse, between Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail. It is a working town of around 6,000 people, so the bakeries, restaurants and shops stay open in winter — which matters if you plan to come in February as well as in July.
Two thousand years in one walk
The largest excavated Roman site in France, a Roman bridge still in daily use, a Romanesque cathedral and a medieval upper town on the hill opposite.
The Tuesday market
One of the best-known markets in Provence fills the centre every Tuesday morning, as it has for more than five centuries.
Mont Ventoux and the outdoors
The classic cycling ascents start a short ride away. Walking in the Dentelles, climbing at Saint-Léger and swimming in the Ouvèze and Toulourenc are all close.
Wine villages
Séguret, Rasteau, Cairanne, Gigondas and Vacqueyras are within twenty minutes’ drive.
Summer festivals
Dance in the Roman theatre each July with Vaison Danses, and the Choralies choral festival every three years.
