Oppède-le-Vieux Breathtaking Enchantment

Cheryl Shufflebotham · Explore · Villages Towns and Cities

Every visitor to the Vaucluse department of Provence must take the time to visit this raw, rugged, breathtaking jewel of the Luberon. Frozen in time, Oppède-le-Vieux enchants its visitors with its majestic position clinging to the side of the Luberon.

For more on Cheryl’s visit to this hilltop town in the Luberon. The townsite has been occupied since the 12th century, with ruins to prove it. Those who are keen to walk up (it’s steep) to the ruins are rewarded with a stunning view of the Luberon Valley.

Where to dine in Oppède-le-Vieux? According to Cheryl:

Le Petit Cafe
12 rue de Sainte Cécile
Oppède, 84580
Telephone: +33 (0)4 90 76 74 01

Cheryl Shufflebotham

Although, Cheryl and her husband live in upstate New York, she tells us that she is always yearning, planning, maneuvering to make her way back to France.

Cheryl's love for France started almost eleven years ago with "a once in a lifetime" ten-year anniversary trip. These wannabe expats have been back every year since that trip!

Cheryl's first French love is the region of Burgundy, but then a few years ago, she discovered Provence. Now she admits that she is torn between Burgundy and Provence. It sounds like Provence has her spellbound, "I can’t quite put a finger on what it is about Provence, but its intoxication keeps luring me back for more."

Cheryl started her blog Cobblestone and Vineyards to explore the simple charms of France, those small details that capture the heart.
