Fournes is a small working village, about 20 kms west of Avignon. Population 650. Its origins are mediaeval. It is sited on a small hillock quite close to the autoroute - our (southern) side of the hill is protected from sight & sound of it -surrounded by vineyards and ‘garrigue’. There are no tourists.

The house - once 4 dwellings - is not luxurious but it is comfortable, full of character, roomy and fun for those whom it suits. There is no air conditioning but with thick walls and a good through breeze it is generally very comfortable. Electric fans are available for heatwaves.

Ground floor: Large impressive entrance hall with palm trees, seating areas and wide stone staircase to mezzanine and main living area. Ensuite Bedroom/blue Bathroom with twin 3' beds, marble fireplace, basement balcony.

1st floor: huge L shaped open plan living space (comprising kitchen, dining and sitting areas) with large stone fireplace. Through antique swing doors to double/study bedroom. The stone bathroom is adjacent, on the mezzanine floor of the large entrance hall of the house. The cool shaded terrace and a south facing balcony are also on this floor. A further sleeping area is above the mezzanine in the main hall.

Top floor: study/bedroom with sofa bed & a separate shower unit. Sliding glass wall (double glazed) gives access to the top terrace with panoramic views.
