Approximately halfway between Saint Gens and Fontaine de Vaucluse.
This is a large complex of buildings, part of which has been partially restored and is open. The restored part is watertight (roof redone) but not airtight (no window panes). On the ground floor, an old bread oven appears to be used by groups (for baking bread, pizzas?). There is a wood supply. Outdoor tables and benches can seat about thirty people. A small storage cabinet contains some food items left by hikers and picnickers who use the place. On the east side of the building, there is a cistern that seems to be supplied with water from the spring located about 300 m above the farm. When in doubt, it is advisable to boil the water before drinking it. At the spring itself, the water was barely seeping, making it impossible to fill a water bottle. Upstairs, the floor has been redone and can accommodate a large group. However, there are still no window panes, the walls are degraded and heavily graffitied. No mattresses, no blankets. When I passed by, there was a grill rack and a large (clean) pot. A stone hearth in the courtyard in front of the house. The place has a lot of charm, a nice spot for picnicking and taking shelter in case of rain.
