Les Cerisiers is a beautiful old Provencale mas (farmhouse) - part of which dates from the 17th Century - surrounded by vines and cherry orchards with superb views of Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail. The mas was restored in 2002 using local yellow stone and old beams and is furnished in Provencal style.

Situated in the Vaucluse in the little hamlet of Serres just outside Carpentras, its proximity to Avignon (25 minutes) and Marseilles and Nimes (just over an hour away) make it easily accessible by car, Eurostar/TGV or by air. Ideal for a long summer holiday or as a pleasant stop-over for a few days en route. |

At the foot of Mont Ventoux, the surrounding countryside is full of picturesque hilltop villages and vineyards and is a paradise for walkers and cyclists as well as for those who love to browse in the local markets and antique shops.

Les Cerisiers is also in the heart of the Côtes du Rhône wine region with a wealth of famous vineyards within easy reach – Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas are a 15-minute drive away and Beaumes de Venise (famous for its Muscat wine) is just around the corner. |

And of course no holiday in Provence would be complete without the local cuisine! We are spoilt for choice for good restaurants, both reasonably priced and more gourmet style. Or for those who prefer to cook for themselves or barbecue, the fresh produce in the markets is wonderful and there are shops and supermarkets within 5 minutes’ drive. Fresh bread and croissants are available from the 'depot de pain' in the little Café du Petit Serrois where, on a summer's evening you will also find the locals engrossed in a serious game of boules in the parking area
