The Tower House offers 145 sqm with 4 bedrooms for 8 people. It is a typical provencal medieval house with very thick stone walls, tiled floors, beams in all the rooms and a huge fireplace in the drawing room. The living space is on the 2 upper storeys, the ground floor being a magnificent voulted cellar beside an arched gateway, which was once the main entrance to the hamlet. Ancient stone steps curl between the house and the old watch tower to the front door.

Authentically restored and comfortably furnished, "La Maison de la tour" is fitted with antique furniture and tastefully decorated. Its walls up to 80cm thick are either stones joined with lime or coating of rustic plaster . Inscriptions on 2 door lintels bear witness of its ancestral past. Its tall and tight openings to the east present a fantastic view over the surrounding vineyards below and, in the distance, on the "Mont Ventoux".
