Maison d'Hôtes de l'Evêché

The rooms at La Maison d'Hôtes de l'Evêché comprise two double or twin rooms and two suites. All have a private bathroom, and the room descriptions also mention a coffee machine. The two 16 m² rooms are designed for two people; one overlooks the inner courtyard, while the other offers views of the garden, town and surrounding area.

Both accommodations offer views of the Roman and Provençal town. Bed configurations vary by room: a double bed, a very large double bed or twin beds. Each room description mentions a private bathroom.

There is also a mini-market and a hairdresser’s on site.

Vaison-la-Romaine stretches between a lively lower town and the medieval Haute Ville, perched on the banks of the Ouvèze. Its old lanes, stone houses and ancient remains give the town a distinctly Provençal character. You can alternate walks through the historic centre with archaeological visits and breaks in the squares, while the slopes of Mont Ventoux form the horizon. The property is in the old quarter, near the Haute Ville.

Vaison-la-Romaine Castle towers over the rooftops and lanes of the old town, 100 m from the property. Heading down towards the river, the Roman Bridge links the town’s two historic parts. The archaeological sites of Puymin and La Villasse reveal the remains of the ancient Roman town; the archaeological museum complements the visit with its collections. Mont Ventoux, 7 km away, draws hiking and cycling enthusiasts. A car makes it easier to explore nearby villages and the landscapes of Vaucluse.

A day can begin with a visit to the ancient sites, then continue through the lanes of the Haute Ville and near the bridge. Markets and cultural events regularly bring the town to life, and its summer theatre festival is a local tradition. In spring and autumn, temperatures are pleasant for walking or cycling along vineyard roads. In summer, plan outings early in the day to enjoy the trails and scenery before the hottest hours. Nearby villages and wine estates offer more ways to explore the region.
