WHAT TO DO IN AND AROUND VAUGINES
Embedded Files
If you like the all-night buzz of city life... then our gîte in the Luberon region of Provence is probably NOT for you!
Our corner of Provence is a region of charming villages - Lourmarin, Bonnieux and Saignon, to name but three - with a rich mix of history, culture, and natural beauty: châteaux, markets, picturesque village squares and abbeys.
Chez David and the surrounding region is likely to appeal to you if you like the (mostly) quiet life - but with access to two of France's most historic cities: Aix and Avignon.
Chez David is situated in the heart of the Luberon, where we are surrounded by a network of great walking and hiking trails, and we moved here for the cycling - never flat, but always stunning! And there are plenty of opportunities for horse-riding too - take a look below.
Or you might just decide to chill in a café... in a restaurant... or at a market...
The village of Vaugines is host to an art and sculpture school, and one of the local bars has an exhibition space, and puts on cultural and musical events.
If fine-dining is your thing, then there are two Michelin-starred restaurants just next to Vaugines - one in Cucuron (walkable!) and one in Ansouis (by car)... or dine out on the terrace at Fontenille, one of our local châteaux.
Just over the river Durance, you can attend the Roque d'Anthéron International Piano Festival, while a little further afield, Aix and Avignon are packed full of cultural events. The two neighbouring villages, Cucuron and Lourmarin, put on various cultural music events - including in the local churches - and there is even a jazz festival in Cadenet, just down the road.
