Some lucky people had a little cottage by the water where they spent most of their time.This privilege can be traced back to the 13th century, when the Count of Toulouse, owner of the Comtat Venaissin, granted the people of Isle the right to fish on the Sorgue from the Fontaine-de-Vaucluse spring to the Rhône. In the 15th century, a fishermen's guild was set up to defend the guild and the conditions in which the trade was practised. During the Revolution, the guild was disbanded and its privileges disappeared... The fishermen had a tradition of electing a king, which didn't go down too well during the Revolution!It was re-founded in 1977 as the Association des Pescaïre Lilen.In 1977, the confrérie des pêcheurs de L'Isle was revived and La Pêche d'Antan was organised every third Sunday in July.
Today, the cottage has been completely renovated and converted into a bedroom that is popular with young and old alike. A shower room adjoining the courtyard provides every comfort.
