The town

At the northeast gateway to Provence and only 20 minutes by train, bus or car from Avignon (which is only 2.5 hours via TGV from Paris), Isle sur la Sorgue is known as the Venice of France with its many water ways and wheels. It has over 250 antique shops and is the 2nd largest antique centre outside Paris. Our apartment is in centre ville and just around the corner are its many cafes/restaurants and the markets held on Sunday are the best in France.

The region

While there is plenty to do in town, buses go 100 metres away from our apartment to many local attractions including Fountaine de Vaucluse, Aix-en-Provence, Marseille (the start of the French Riviera) and Avignon. It is also close to Mont Ventoux (skiing, hiking) and villages of Rousillon, Gordes, Menerbes (Peter Mayle fame), La Coste (Marquis de Sade and Pierre Cardin chateau residence). Not too far away are other attractions including the Orange amphitheatre, Pont du Gard, Nimes, Arles and St Remy.

The apartment

Our apartment is located just around the corner from the main cafe/shop strip and although dating back to 1850, has recently been nicely renovated. It has one double bedroom, a separate large living area which can sleep another 3 people with a balcony off it through french doors.
