LOCATION and ACTIVITIES
The house is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, 2 km from the center of the village of Taulignan.
Starting from the house, numerous trails allow you to stroll through the Drôme countryside, among lavender fields, vineyards, and woodland.
Taulignan is a village of 1,600 residents, an ancient medieval town dating back to the 14th century with a fortified suburb featuring eleven towers.
In the 19th century, Taulignan was a major industrial center for silk reeling, employing several hundred workers.
You can visit the Silk Museum to learn about the different stages of a silkworm’s life cycle (from the hatching of the egg to the birth of the larva and its transformation into a butterfly) and the techniques used to turn silk into precious fabrics (spinning, reeling, and weaving).
A lovely walk along the “Silk Trails” starts from the village, winding through and alongside the old reeling mills that existed in Taulignan during the 19th and early 20th centuries. This 4-km loop takes 1 to 1.5 hours to complete and features informational signs near the main buildings associated with silk production.
In the village, you’ll find: a bakery, a butcher shop, cafés, a grocery store, an artisanal chocolate shop and cookie shop, a restaurant, a pizzeria, a tobacco and newsstand, and a market on Friday mornings featuring local producers and regional specialties: fruits, vegetables, cheeses (Picodon and others), wine, honey, lavender essential oil, and caillettes.
In the surrounding area, there are many activities to enjoy: a tree-top adventure
