Discover Isle sur la Sorgue and Cavaillon
Around our guest house between Cavaillon and Isle sur la Sorgue, there is no shortage of hilltop villages, renowned natural sites and outdoor activities. Cavaillon is known for its melons but also for its Via Ferrata located on the Saint Jacques hill. A few minutes from our guest rooms, Isle sur la Sorgue is worth a visit with its water wheels. Every Sunday morning, the village is transformed into a giant market that welcomes second-hand dealers and antique dealers. Sports enthusiasts will enjoy going down the Sorgue in a canoe kayak, between Fontaine de Vaucluse and Isle sur la Sorgue.

The Quarries of Lights in Beaux de Provence
Les Beaux de Provence, a village perched high in the Alpilles, is known worldwide for its Carrières de Lumières which host multimedia artistic shows with projections of famous works set to music. On the Alpilles side, Saint Rémy de Provence is worth a detour with its green valleys.
