Maison Pigalet - Self-catering house in Vaucluse
Pigalet, 84400 Saignon, Vaucluse
Provence - Alps - Riviera,
Francia
A beautiful slice of typical Provence. The house is surrounded by fruit orchards and lavender fields: puff 15 minutes uphill along a footpath to the village for your morning croissants and baguette, amble back down to breakfast. The big downstairs bedroom overlooks the pool, delightful for an early morning swim then tea in bed, the others are upstairs and are bright, spacious and with sunny views.
Downstairs flows easily from comfy seating around the gorgeous stone fireplace to a library area with books and a desk, then a dining room with ample table, to the large kitchen where everyone can join in the chopping and chatting. The ground floor opens out to the terraces, garden with lawn, pool and views. A summer kitchen with stove and fridge, a built-in barbecue and outside loo and shower make evenings outdoors a breeze.
Visit wine producers, hire a 2CV and motor along quiet roads, gather wonderful food from the markets.

Local points of interest from Edward & Miranda Mason:
Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Edward & Miranda Mason:
- The medieval village Saignon is a beautiful 10-15 minute walk. The imposing rock on which the village is built used to house three castles and one of the four restaurants is on the old roof of one of these. Our house is clearly visible from the rock!
- Saignon is a stunning 'village perche' like those made famous by Peter Mayle: Goult, Bonnieux, Lacoste, Menerbes...but still relatively undiscovered. As well as excellent restaurants there is a boulangerie, shops and galleries and even a bouledrome!
- The Roman town Apt is only a couple of miles with flourishing markets and events, boutiques, organic shops, supermarkets etc. E/bikes are easily hired in Apt (they'll deliver too) and the old railway is a brilliant safe way to cycle many beautiful miles.
- Lovers of history and natural history will find plenty of interest incl spectacular ruined ochre mines, amazing rock formations, cedar forests, and in season the famous lavender. You can even kayak down the gorgeous rivers.
- There are restaurants and bars around the area to suit all tastes and pockets, as well as vineyards to visit and abundant produce. Guests are welcome to help themselves to fruit and herbs in our garden in season too - cherries, figs, grapes, etc
- Immaculate Citroen 2CVs can be hired a mile down the road: what better way to get in the proper Provencal spirit than to roll back the roof, tour the villages, markets and vineyards before returning to Pigalet for a swim, drinks on the terrace and dinner!
