Types of Holiday Rentals in Carpentras
There is a large selection of houses to rent in Carpentras and villas to rent in Carpentras, but few apartments or cottages.
There’s a lovely big, superbly decorated 5 bedroomed house for rent in Carpentras, complete with large swimming pool and terrace. The view is magnificent and the living area is galleried, with great use of timber beams. The price may seem high, but it reflects well the fact that the property can sleep 11 people, and is stunning.
If you’d like something slightly less expensive, but in my opinion, no less grand, there’s a great 4 bedroomed villa to rent in Carpentras area, 9 kilometres from the town centre. The house is lovely and cool in the summer and the large pool very inviting.
Carpentras Useful Information
Your holiday rentals in Carpentras will be located around a fair sized town, with an inner circle of roads enclosing the cathedral and other ancient sites.
Surrounding this are small properties lining narrow streets, before the town opens out and becomes more modern.
The modern centre has wide-open squares, great restaurants and shops and there is a market that has been running since Roman times.
There are many smaller villages very close to your Carpentras holiday rentals, if you’d rather less hustle and bustle.
I’d recommend taking a look at our ‘holiday rentals in Bedoin’ and ‘holiday rentals in Pernes-les-Fontaines’ pages for examples of these nearby.
