Chez Newton

Sleeps 5. 3 Bedrooms. 1.5 bathrooms!

This wonderful house is located in the delightful medieval village of Caromb. It is situated about 40 minutes from Avignon and is only a short distance from Carpentras.

From here you are ideally positioned for exploring Provence - most sights are all within about 30 kilometres, such as Vaison la Romaine, Orange, Chateauneuf du Pape, Avignon, L'Isle sur la Sorgue, Fontaine de Vaucluse, Gordes etc.

The village of Caromb has many small shops (4 bakeries), a pharmacy and two restaurants. A market is held every Tuesday morning.

This house is a 19th century prvencal house located on the edge of the village. This is a beautiful house that has been professionally decorated.

The ground floor has a large entry with the original staircase and access to the garden. Off the entry hall is the large lounge/ dining room with its impressive fireplace. The lounge has two comfortable couches, and a dining table which can seat up to eight people. This lounge opens into a small den / summer lounge, which itself opens onto the garden. The kitchen is also on this level. The kitchen has all modern appliances; a large gas stove and washing machine, dishwasher, microwave etc, as well as an attractive kitchen table. The kitchen opens onto a terrace overlooking the charming garden and is shaded by an ancient persimmom tree, with views across the countryside beyond to the village of Crillon Le Brave and Mont Ventoux - glorious!! In the garden is a plunge pool, not ideal for swimming lengths but perfect for cooling off!

On the first floor there are two large double bedrooms, a small single bedroom, and a new bathroom (bath with a shower over) and WC. There is a second WC with Basin etc. On the second floor is a large room which has a single bed if required by the 5th person. This room has lovely views over the countryside and offers a good place to "play", or if anyone wants a quiet place to get away from things.

The quality of furnishings etc. throughout this village house is superb, with a mixture of old and new reflecting the spirit of the house and Provence! This house is "paradise" and with only a minute walk to the bakery and bars, is a wonderful address for experiencing village life, if you can bear to drag yourselves away from the place!

All linen and utensils are included. Electricity is included between 1 May and 30 September.

This is a very popular rental home. When staying here every morning we go for long walks through the vines and olive trees on pathways between Caromb and Crillon le Brave. It's a perfect region for renting a bike and exploring the sublime countryside.
