Location & what to see
Les Taillades is a Provençal village in Vaucluse, set amid the agricultural landscape between Cavaillon and the Luberon massif. The houses and remains associated with the old stone village give the area a rural character, while the surrounding roads pass through orchards, fields and small communes. It suits travellers who want to explore the villages of the Luberon by car and return to a quiet setting after their visits.
The waterwheel, 650 m away, recalls the history of water and local activities. Château des Taillades and Saint-Trophime Church are in the village. Cavaillon, 3 km away, has an old town and Saint-Véran Cathedral; its railway station connects the commune to the regional rail network. Further afield, Gordes and its château overlook the Luberon landscapes, while Sénanque Abbey is known for its Cistercian architecture and lavender fields. A car makes it easier to travel between these villages and natural sites.
Spring and autumn are pleasant times to explore the country roads and visit the villages without the busy summer crowds. In summer, Provençal markets and long days lend themselves to morning outings before the hottest part of the day. Lavender blooms across parts of the Luberon towards the end of June and in July. A day could combine a walk through the narrow streets of Gordes with a visit to Sénanque, followed by a stop in Cavaillon on the way back.
