In the romantic village of Saignon, PicOiseaux is an old Provençal house from the 18th century, ...

+ A PANORAMIC TERRACE in the sun / A SPLENDID VIEW !

In the morning, you will be enchanted by the magnificent view of the Luberon, the lavender and olive fields, and the Apt valley while having breakfast on the terrace. At lunchtime you will enjoy sharing good times with your family, around a festive barbecue, facing the panorama. And every evening, you will surprise yourself dreaming in front of the magnificent sunset...

You will enjoy relaxing inside and in the Mediterranean gardens with a view of the magnificent panorama.



+ SAIGNON / VILLAGE PERCHED in the HEART of the PARC DU LUBERON

By going to get the bread, you will happily wander through the alleys of the village which dominates the whole valley.

Lovers of hiking, cycling, climbing, kayaking... you will be overjoyed by the beauty of the countryside. Lovers of good food, you will love discovering the markets of the Luberon: Savour the fresh fruits and vegetables, taste a real honey, enjoy a good glass of wine with a goat cheese, smell the smell of truffles ...



+ PICOISEAUX / In the HEART OF PROVENCE

Saignon is also the ideal place to discover Provence in greater depth: the flea markets of Isle sur la Sorgue, the Avignon festival, Aix en Provence and its museums, Arles and the photography fair, the arenas of Nîmes, Cassis, the creeks and the Mediterranean Sea, the Verdon gorges...

A delightful experience
My wife and I recently stayed at this charming property and it was a delightful experience. The design of the property is very appealing. It was nice having stairs leading down from the main bedroom to the terrace for our coffee in the mornings. The traditional tile flooring and exposed beams add to the charm and character of the house. The kitchen is well-equipped—everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and convenient. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time on the terrace and in the lovely garden, surrounded by beautiful plants and vibrant colours—so peaceful and relaxing. The house stays cool even during the scorching heat—after a long day of exploring the beautiful surroundings, it was a relief to step into a refreshingly cool space. In the house there is lots of useful information about the area. Saignon itself is a special village—full of picturesque charm and a friendly atmosphere. There’s a bakery and several places to eat. Its proximity to other pretty villages and beautiful scenery makes it a great base for exploration. Take a drive through the Monts de Vaucluse—the landscape is quite spectacular! The local markets are also fun, with their stalls filled with fresh produce, crafts and local delicacies. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Odile and Emmanuel for being such gracious and welcoming hosts, we felt like valued guests throughout. We highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a peaceful and authentic getaway in the heart of Provence

Wonderful!
A wonderful stay in this beautiful house and Odile was very kind and helpful before and during our stay. The house is located in the stunning village of Saignon, we enjoyed having a drink in the picturesque square and also breakfast and lunch at Christine's Cafe. It's also perfectly located to visit other villages, we went to Roussillon, Gordes, Bonnieux and Loumarin. Of course a lot of time was spent on the glorious terrace too.. Thank you again Odile!

An amazing place to stay.
A beautiful house in an equally beautiful village. So many lovely touches by our host Odile. She was so helpful and contact before and throughout our stay was great. The pictures of the property, although great, don’t do it justice. So much character throughout and everything was there that we could have needed. Saignon is a gem of a village and we were able to immerse ourselves during our 4 week stay. Breakfast and dinner on the terrace and lunch in the cool shaded undercroft below was such a bonus. We wouldn’t hesitate recommending Odile’s house to any of our friends or potential guests. I could go on with all the positives, the access to Apt and being so close to so many other places to visit, none more than 45 minutes away. Finally a thank you to Odile for the useful information booklet with great recommendations of places to visit.

A great place in a beautiful part of France
The location of this gite in Saignon was perfect, with a truly beautiful view down the valley of lavender fields and mountains beyond, at all times of the day. The property was well equipped and comfortable with good size rooms. Odile was very welcoming and informative. Saignon is a pretty hill top village with many facilities despite being a small village. We will return to explore the beautiful Uberon again and would recommend a stay at this gite to anyone. Thanks Odile.

Nice house in a classic Provencal village.
My wife and I enjoyed two weeks in Saignon. The house was perfect for us and we appreciated the updated bathrooms and well equipped kitchen with it's mix of modern and vintage equipment. The location was perfect and the outside patio that is featured in the photo was a delight. The village is now on our favorites list.

Beautiful house with lots of charm in stunning village away from it all
We loved our stay here. Odile, the owner, could not have been nicer and the house was full of personal touches to make you feel instantly at ease. The location is perfect get the peacefulness and feeling of being away from it all, whilst having a number of the Luberon’s most beautiful towns and colourful markets nearby. A little gem...

Great provencial house in a beautiful location
Our host Odile was very friendly and extremely accommodating. Her knowledge of the area was plentiful and very useful. Saignon is a very beautiful village, which we immediately fell in love with. A great place to explore Provence and would definitely return to, given the chance. The house was very typical of the area and had been tastefully upgraded, keeping as many original features as possible. It had everything we needed and much more. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to others

Lovely views, comfortable home, quaint and quiet town
We were three women on a painting holiday. We spent three wonderful weeks in this lovely Saignon home. What you need to know: Odile is friendly and helpful. She met us at the house. The house is a little tricky to find – on a tiny narrow street. It looks like nothing from the street side. Open up the door and you are greeted with a panoramic view over the valley below. You enjoy this superb hillside-perch vista from the living room, kitchen, and deck, and upstairs from two of the three bedrooms. If you are lucky, the lavender will be in bloom. We were there mid-June and were treated to the lavender’s gradual purpling. The beds are comfortable with good quality cotton sheets, and down duvets. The master bedroom (queen bed) has a door that opens onto a tiny patio and stairs down to the main deck. The second bedroom has two single beds and a view window. The third room has a single bed and window opening onto the street. There are two bathrooms – one with a shower (downstairs) and the other with a huge comfortable bathtub (upstairs). The house is quiet, except for the frogs and the odd rooster! Saignon is a jewel of a tiny town. Not yet too touristy. We enjoyed pastries and coffee at Chez Christine, which is also a restaurant and sells a few grocery items – milk, wine, tapenade… There are several restaurants in town. We enjoyed a superb 3-course dinner at Le Petit Bouchon. Climb the stairs to the top of Le Rocher at sunset and enjoy a 360-degree vista! Breathtaking! Saignon is 5 minutes by car from Apt. Check out the extensive Saturday market there. Apt also has several large grocery stores. When bringing groceries home, you can drive right to the house, unload, then park just a short distance up the street. Saignon is just a short drive from many other lovely towns. Lourmarin, Bonnieux, LaCoste and Menerbes are ½ hour South West. Roussillon (20 minutes) and Gordes (½ hour) are to the North West. Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is 40 minutes due East. It is famous for its Sunday market and antiques. There are many other tiny towns to explore. Viens, Curcuron..too many to list! All beautiful in their own way. Be sure to take a camera or sketchbook! We also ventured further away to visit Aix (S. 50 minutes), St-Tropez 2 ½ - 3 hours (S.E) and Cassis and the Calanques (1 ½ hours S.) Pont-du-Gard is about 1 ½ hours East. After our excursions, short or long, we were always happy to return to our comfortable, quiet hillside home to enjoy a glass of wine on the deck
