The little dwelling was once the out-building to the larger propertry to which it adjoins. Today, Joie de Vivre has been lovingly renovated to provide comfortable and entertaining accommodation for a small family or two couples who don't mind sharing.

The terrace overlooks a valley which is dominated by mature trees. This offers complete privacy and is in contrast to the proximity to Gordes itself and local commerce.

The sun-drenched terrace facing the pool is an ideal place to work on that tan. It's also a wonderful place to serve the aperatif as the sun drops over the distant horizon.

The ground floor of the house reversible air conditioning for guests' comfort. The sitting room and dining/kitchen area are open plan which gives a spacious feel to the little house. Sky TV is available as well as Wifi internet connection.

The above image shows the first floor double bedroom. Please note that it is necessary to walk though this bedroom to access the stairs that climb to the second en-suite double bedroom found on the second floor. Two couples would have to feel comfortable with this sleeping arrangement.

The en-suite double bedroom is spacious, light and has good views from the windows.

Thanks to the large French windows light floods into the house in both the dining area and the lounge. The owners have furnished the ground floor area to good effect, giving a feeling of space and comfort. The design is simple and unfussy, making you feel right at home.

The little kitchenette may look very basic, but it does in fact have an oven/microwave, a dish-washer, fridge/freezer and large sink.

This is the en-suite facility to the second floor bedroom.

The picture to the left shows the shower room which can be found on the ground floor.
