About Rasteau in Vaucluse, Provence - Cote d'Azur

Villa La Bacchante is situated just east of the centre of Rasteau in the direction of Roaix. 8 km west of Vaison-la-Romaine via the D975 and 22 km east of Orange (Autoroute A7), facing the Ouvèze valley, Rasteau (680 inhabitants) is a village of Upper Vaucluse wine-growers, perched 200 metres above sea level on a mound between plains and forests. The houses spread out at the foot of a beautiful 12th century Romanesque church, and the ruins of a 12th century château overlook the village.

You can't miss the huge shady square, right in the heart of the village. This is where the locals meet up, find out what's going on and have a good gossip. Around the square are a few shops, the café, the village school, the mairie, the post office and even a tourist office. You will also find in Rasteau a magnificent wine co-operative and a vine cultivation museum. Villa La Bacchante is neighbouring Domaine des Girasols who are happy to host you in their tasting room. Vaison-la-Romaine is just 5 mins. away to the east and this little town of 6000 inhabitants is the pounding heart of the region and provides a wealth of restaurants and shops, cultural events and historical places to visit.

Guest Reviews Of Villa La Bacchante

Sari Lindblom-Ylänne
3/1/11

The house is very well kept and decorated with style. All bedrooms are spacious and very nice. The kitchen is quite small, but big enough to cook for a large number of people. The views to the mountains and vineyards around the house are magnificent. The location is perfect: many beautiful and nice villages within a short drive.

Our two weeks in La Bacchante in Rasteau have really changed something in our lives and there is not one day, when I don't think of this wonderful place. I guess that's the kind of holiday most people are looking for, and we were so fortunate to find it!!!!

If God lived in France, he would live in Villa La Bacchante!

The perfect place to visit the Provence and when one doesn't feel like doing anything, the villa offers more than enough space and opportunities to do nothing at all!

A nice bottle of wine chilled in the freezer on arrival and delicious home made jam from the fig tree in the garden. All amenities in the vicinity. Lovely bedrooms, all with a breathtaking view.....

After not having been in France for a couple of years, I totally fell in love with the country and the people all over again.

Thanks Paul en Miriam for this piece of heaven....

It is a very nice house with a typical French touch. It is very well equipped and is lovely situated on a hill overlooking vineyards and the mountains in the background. The pool is great and we had every meal outside on a veranda. The children really liked the house.
