We spent one week in Valsorgues in Saignon in August 2013 with 2 children aged 14 and 10. Valsorgues is a fantastic holiday place, I have particularly enjoyed:
- Feeling being remote from the noise and the pollution: The house is surrounded by lavender fields and forests - with a fantastic view on the Luberon. Wherever you look, hills, woods - not a single building!
- The house is very well equipped and furnished with a lot of taste.
- Saignon is a charming/authentic tiny village (you can walk there in 10 minutes)
- The area is surrounded by "must-see" little towns like Bonnieux, Lourmarin, Ménerbes, etc...
- The market in Apt the saturday morning but also bying rare tomatoes at "Le Potager d'un curieux", goat cheeses at "La Cabriole", honey and lavender products at Mr Guigou's in Les Agnels....
- last but not least, the hospitality of Valsorgues' owners who live in the main part of the mansion. They took some time to explain which villages to visit, which hike to take (I remember the one to the little village called Les Buoux was stunning).
We felt spending a house in Valsorgues is an ideal way to "unplug" and discover the amazing Luberon.
