Village life doesn't get better than this 

The beautiful winegrower’s main house is sprawled over three floors. Portions of the original structure are said to date back to the 17th and 18th century, although we haven't yet been able to substantiate that. Nonetheless, the property is situated in the heart of the village, which certainly is really, really old. And gorgeous.

The newly renovated house offers a modern kitchen with a Nespresso coffee machine, large Smeg gas cooker/stove with electric oven; a dining room that is ideal for long lazy dinners; and a roomy lounge with Orange-TV on the ground floor. All of these open onto the sun-dappled courtyard, with a plunge pool, large outdoor dining table for alfresco lunches, and a covered patio for summer cocktails. 

Next up are two spacious bedrooms, each with its own shower room, fan, heating, hairdryer and double doors leading onto a balcony that spans the length of the building. One bedroom has a queen size bed, and the other has two single beds. These rooms sandwich a comfortable lounge, and there is a smaller lounge with a bar fridge that opens onto a large terrace that overlooks the courtyard – the perfect setting for sundowners or a leisurely morning coffee.

The extra large open plan attic, with additional light streaming in from skylights, completes the house and is a great private, romantic space. Here you'll find a king size bed, small lounge, dining area, desk, bar fridge, and en-suite bathroom with shower and tub. Also included is a fan (air con will be installed before the next summer season), heating and hairdryer.

Amenities

The main house has a fully equipped and modern kitchen. All linen and towels are included and each room has a hairdryer, fan and free wi-fi.

With two bakeries a stone's throw away, you can take a two-minute stroll for your early morning croissant (or a variety of other pastries and bread) to enjoy with your freshly brewed coffee, setting yourself up for a full day of exploring or for simply lazing by the pool with a good book and the company of friends or family. 

Nearby Pezenas and Roujon have large supermarkets for big shopping sprees. Otherwise, there is a small coffee shop that stocks basics, and a fabulous butchery where you can also get fresh veg and other essentials.

And if you're not in the mood to cook, pop in to the local restaurant or pizza and kebab joint for great food and a chance to hang with the locals.

A fish and chips food truck, as well as a pizza truck, visit Caux once or twice a month for your takeaway fix.

Important info

Please note the main house and apartment are rented together as one unit. Unfortunately, the property is not suitable for children under the age of 12.

As you will see on the availability calendar, all of June, July and August 2020 are marked as reserved. That’s because the fabulous people at Oliver’s Travel have exclusive rights to the property in high season. It’s a win-win for us and for them as they put a lot of time and effort into marketing the house. It would appear they like our house almost as much as we do!

So, then, if you are keen to stay at South to South during those glorious south of France summer months – which you totally should be! – then head on over to Oliver’s Travel here where you will find our gorgeous old lady by her alter ego of Chez Le Vigneron (don’t ask, it’s just how things roll in the vacation rental world).

You can book on our site for other months of the year, or go through Oliver’s Travel (OT) – same difference. Simply fill in the form to the right and we will send you the rates.

To be honest, OT is probably easier as they are geared to take credit cards, which we are not.
We gave it our best shot, but setting up a credit card payment facility on this page was a bridge too far for our non-existent computer tech skills. That means we’ll have to send you an invoice so you can do a bank transfer.
It’s a tad cumbersome, but if you’re keen for the experience of doing business 1980s style, we’ll make up for it with a free bottle of wine … It’s up to you. Personally, we’d probably pop back to the link above and let OT do what they do best!

Before you go, please linger longer and read all about the house and the area and the wine and the food and our story here on our site. You’re also welcome to drop us an email if you have any queries.

(By the way, you'‘ll find, we still call her South to South because there’s a story to it, and because some of us are super aware that we’re going to mispronounce the French name every time we stumble our way through it.)
