Super hosts
The warmest of welcomes and throughout our two weeks nothing was ever too much trouble. Friendly yet discreet. A very well equipped gite and very comfortable to relax in. Some background traffic noise but the price one pays for staying in a town and not really a problem.

Jolie maison confortable.
Bon séjour malgré la chaleur qui était difficile à supporter la nuit, trop de bruit dehors pour ouvrir les fenêtres. Mais les villages, la beauté des lieux fait parfois oublier le reste....

Un séjour trop court.....!
L'accueil est remarquable par sa chaleur et sa simplicité. Marina et Claude sont avenants et discrètement présents. Le gîte quant à lui possède le charme provençal attendu avec tout le confort moderne. Rien ne manque si ce n'est quelques jours de plus dans ce que notre petit fils appelle "notre maison de vacances ".

Beautiful House in ideal location
We loved this pretty house. The owners were delightful and took a lot of care to ensure our stay was perfect. There is everything you need in the house if you want to cook and eat in and there's a patio with table and chairs to sit outside. The rooms are all equipped with fans which was great as the temperatures were very high outdoors. Having your own off road parking space was also a bonus. The location was perfect for us. Pernes is pretty town, not very touristy but plenty of things going on and lots of restaurants to eat out. Great markets too! It was easy to get to everywhere we wanted to visit by car and is only half an hour drive to Avignon if arriving by train. I would recommend this house to anyone wanting to stay in the area and we will definitely go back.

tres bien
Nous avons beaucoup apprécié l' accueil chaleureux, les conseils et la discrétion des propriétaires. Le gite est très bien situé, juste à l' entrée du village de Pernes, très joli et super point de départ pour découvrir la région. Le gite est très confortable et cocoon, il n' y manque rien pour un séjour de qualité. Nous le recommanderons aux amis.

Douillette Calvinette
Maison douillette, très bien entretenue et décorée avec goût. Claude et Marina sont adorables et nous ont donné d'excellents conseils pour découvrir la région. Ils nous ont également fait partager une de leur randonnée dans le lit du Toulourenc. C'était super. Pernes les Fontaines est bien situé pour partir à la découverte des principaux sites de cette belle région. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.

Very pleasant gite
Had a wonderful week in Pernes Les Fontaines. The gite was like a home away from home, with everything we could possibly need. It's very central to most attractions in Provence with many markets and hill towns nearby. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. A perfect rental for a couple or small family.

Wonderful stay
We stayed at La Calvinette for 1 month in March/April 2014. The house is lovely, and very well furnished and fitted out with everything you need. Claude and Marina are the most helpful hosts and were a huge help to us in our first month in France. The gite is very well placed to the centre of Pernes, you can walk everywhere but there is also room to park your hire car that you might use to explore locations further afield. The beds are comfortable, the heating very good and we had a lovely cosy stay. Our children enjoyed the small courtyard. The gite has a gate which we often closed so the children could play outside without the worry of the road. We heard no traffic when inside, the double glazed windows keep all the voice out and it was a very peaceful stay. The gite has everything you could want for a stay in Provence and I highly recommend it.
