Listing description

L'Amandier in spring

L’Amandier, our first cottage renovated and let since the 2000 season, snuggles in a corner of our garden.

A gated entrance off the rural route from Saint Didier to Saumanes, facing fine views across a vineyard, leads to a drive alongside the cottage.

It has its own garden of fruit trees flanked by stone walls on the road-side whilst several large fig trees provide privacy within. The paved terrace shaded by a large cherry tree (blossom in April, cherries towards the end of May) with table and four chairs is the perfect setting for leisurely meals. Loungers are provided for sun-worshippers. A cooler arbor beneath an almond tree (l’amandier after which the cottage is named, blossom in February) offers another retreat. Culinary experts can try their hand at the barbecue for which proper cooking utensils are provided.

Double french windows open from the terrace into a spacious living room. A well-equipped kitchen area occupies one side with full-sized cooker, fridge, microwave and ample storage space. Utensils and equipment are provided with serious cooks in mind. Alongside is a dining table with seating for four.

The rest and main part of the living room is a pleasing, comfortably-seated lounge area with a radio/cassette player and also a retractable TV cum video that can be easily rotated for ease of viewing and a radio/cassette. A fine sideboard contains glasses for every occasion, though sadly not the liquid contents.

Location Details

Saint Didier, Vacluse, Provence

Nestling amongst vineyards and fruit trees, Saint Didier lies on the slopes rising towards the upland Plâteau de Vaucluse, a rocky ridge dividing the valley of the River Nesque from the Luberon that continues in a wide arc rising to the summit (at 1909m) of Mont Ventoux before descending again to the craggy Dentelles de Montmirail, this arc creating the "enclosed valley", or Vallis Clausa in Latin, from which the name Vaucluse, our department in France, is derived. The limestone formations of the Plâteau contain enormous subterranean aquifers that feed the many springs and fountains to be found in the region, the most spectacular being the source of the River Sorgue that in flood erupts from the mountainside at Fontaine-de-Vaucluse.
