Wake up in our peaceful green corner of Provence. Breakfast 'en plein air' beside your own private swimming pool and step back in time to enjoy the slow pace of life in our southern French village. La Soleillade benefits from a southerly aspect so we have the sun all day long making us an ideal base for a family holiday around the pool. We are located on the edge of the pretty village of Laudun within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants and have a direct bus connection to Avignon. The independent garden apartment has EXCLUSIVE use of the large pool, terrace and summer kitchen. Nestling amongst the vineyards of the southern Cotes du Rhone, it is particularly suitable for wine enthusiasts as it offers easy access to the wineries of Laudun, Lirac, Tavel and Chateauneuf du Pape. Children and dogs are welcome as we have lots of outdoor space. I live on the first floor, I have my own entrance and am on hand if required with help and advice but otherwise you would not be disturbed. Situated within The Golden Triangle of Provence, La Soleillade offers you a tranquil base to return to after a day discovering this historic region.

I love meeting people from all over the world and sharing my lovely home with them. I enjoy taking the train to Aix en Provence or Marseille for a days shopping and Avignon is only a 20 mins drive away. By staying here you can experience life in a small undiscovered French town and have a peaceful base to return to after a days sightseeing.

La Soleillade is situated within the Golden Triangle of Provence, which means you have easy access to all the major tourist attractions of Avignon, Arles, Uzes and Nimes. The village itself has a good restaurant and Sunday market and we have a very well stocked little supermarket within walking distance of the apartment. I bought La Soleillade because of its quiet location, southerly aspect and the warm welcome of my French neighbours who have become life long friends. I have stayed in all the departments of the Languedoc but chose the department of Gard because its the greenest and the most easterly with direct connections to north south autoroutes. La Soleillade is situated in the most southerly corner of the region known as the Gard Provencal. "But of course the heart of it all is Avignon with its honey-coloured, rose-faded walls and machicolated towers rising steeply from a country dusted silver with olives, and—more likely than not—swept by the roaring mistral." — Lawrence Durrell Avignon
