Gite La Fénière

Cottage "La Fénière"
at Savouillon, a hamlet of Saint Saturnin-lès-Apt at 8 Km from Sault

Nature, hiking, cycling and even fine dining : Everything is present and possible at our little corner of paradise!

This little paradise is situated between the picturesque town of Sault, known for its lavender specialties, and the charming village of Saint-Saturnin-lès-Apt, stretching over the hills of the Luberon.

Our sixteenth century farmhouse, beautifully restored in the Provencal tradition, and the adjacent cottage are located in a small valley amidst the lavender fields of the Luberon Regional Park Forest at 1000 mtr above sea level, offering an unforgettable view on the famous Mont Ventoux, the giant of Provence.

The owners, Hans and Tiny de Bruin live just around the corner of the cottage "La Fénière" where they also manage "La Table du Bonheur", a B&B, where 3 comfortable rooms are available and where you also might, if you wish, enjoy the cooking skills of Chef Hans.
17 years ago, the former owner-chef of a Michelin starred restaurant left the hectic restaurant life to settle down at the paradisiacal setting of Savouillon with his wife Tiny.

For a very reasonable price, you can treat yourself with a delicious gourmet meal composed of the best products the Provençe has to offer, served either on the terrace or in the charming living room.

Hans and Tiny are always available to provide information and to answer your questions. They are happy to make your stay unforgettable.
