Lovely Luberon Home

We had a lovely one month stay in this Provençal home. The property is well-equipped and full of options for large groups. The owner was very attentive and accomodationg. We were occasionally 12 people all with comfortable beds, enjoying the pool and pétanque games, feasts on the patio, stunning view of Saignon village and splendid time together. Easy access to many Provençal villages and marchés. A wonderful place to come home to cook and relax. Yearning to go back again!

A wonderful family holiday

We can't say enough good things about our holiday in this house. The house itself is lovely, comfortable, with plenty of space and in different permutations for all 11 of us, including our children, grandchildren and brother-in-law. Between the main house, and the little cabanon behind the pool, everyone had appropriate room and bathrooms. The glory of the property is the beautiful shaded outdoor dining/living area easily accessible from both floors of the house and overlooking the pool. We spent most of our time there underneath the shade trees, which were lit by strings of patio lights in the evening - eating, chatting on the couches, keeping an eye on people in the pool just through the fence. The pool itself was wonderful - heated, with a heated outdoor shower (!), well maintained by a friendly person who came 3 times while we were there to check on the PH, and clean out leaves. As if that weren't enough, there's a petanque court in the front garden - we spent a fair bit of time there competing, chatting, laughing. Also a portable badminton net, which we moved around to stay in the shade. A fabulous view of Saignon from many angles, and an easy drive to get there for breakfast at Chez Christine, dinner at Le Jardin sur le Toit, and many other delights. Fun to spend time at the Apt market. Friendly people on hand to show us around and hand over the keys to at the end. A memorable holiday. Thank you so much!

parfait sauf quelques détails

La maison est spacieuse et agréable, la literie est bonne, , le jardin est bien aménagé et bien clos, la piscine chauffée a été appréciée en septembre, le salon extérieur et la grande table de jardin étaient parfait. Mais la télé du salon du bas coupait après 20 minutes d'utilisation et nous n'avons pas réussi à faire fonctionner celle du haut. La chasse d'eau de l'étage fuyait, une prise de courant dans la première chambre du bas était détachée. Dans la cuisine il manquait des casseroles permettant de cuisiner pour 12. Ce sont des détails mineurs auxquels il est possible de remédier facilement et qui n'ont pas altéré la qualité de notre séjour.

Superbe villa pour séjour au calme

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans la maison de John. Elle est bien équipée, pour les adultes et les enfants. La communication était très bonne. Le terrain de pétanque est une pépite (ce serait top avec une lumière en plus pour la tombée de la nuit ?) et la piscine chauffée très agréable. La maison est située à 3min en voiture du centre ville et 15min à pied, attention c'est sur une colline donc ç Attention, les voisines ne sont pas aimables si vous avez des enfants dans la piscine ;)

Une superbe semaine de Noël à Apt.

Nous nous sommes retrouvés en famille chez John à Apt pour la semaine de Noël. Les instructions fournies préalablement étaient très claires, l'accueil chaleureux avec en bonus un sapin et des décorations de Noël. La maison est très fonctionnelle et il y fait bon vivre. Nous ne nous sommes jamais sentis à l'étroit pourtant nous étions 13. Le sympathique cabanon séparé où 2 personnes peuvent loger est un plus. A noter aussi le superbe boulodrome. La région est splendide; nous avons eu la chance d'avoir du soleil et un grand ciel bleu pratiquement toute la semaine, ce qui a permis de bien en profiter. Nous recommandons cette location sans hésiter.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans cette magnifique maison parfaitement située dans les hauteurs d'Apt avec de très jolies vues sur les colines alentour. John, le propriétaire, et Jennifer, ont été aux petits soins avec nous et ont fait en sorte que le séjour se passe à merveille. La maison est parfaitement équipée, et nous avons même pu profiter des vélos pour faire quelques escapades dans les environs. A noter que les vélos sont de très bonne qualité, ce qui est assez rare dans les gîtes en location. On reviendra tres certainement dans les années à venir!

La décoration ajoute un côté très cosy à la location et la grande table extérieure permet de prendre tous les repas dans le jardin sans problème. L’escalier pour y accéder est un peu raide mais avec l’habitude, on s’y fait sans problème.

We had a wonderful time at John & Vicky’s holiday home with our family. Very spacious with lots of outdoor dining and seating area - the pool is excellent and used most days by everyone. The location was great for us with lots of wonderful pretty hilltop villages to visit especially on market days. The house was very well equipped with all you would need. The bedrooms were light and airy and the beds very comfortable. John sent us a very comprehensive guide to the area before we arrived which we found very useful.
