lsvg gives:
PP size - 32 megabytes
LVs - 1
TOTAL PVs - 4
TOTAL PPs - 12788 (409216 megabytes)
TOTAL PPs - 1588 (50816 megabytes)
TOTAL PPs - 11200 (358400 megabytes)

So 50Gb free ( ? )

df -g gives:
Filesystem GB blocks Free %Used
/dev/lv01 350.00 105.27 70%

So 100Gb free

Is the df double because it's taking into account it's mirrored ?

regards

 
PPs are allocated as LPs to an LV

That LV is then used (here: as a filesystem)
Whatever you have left on the PVS, the LV(s) won't know about that (until you extend the LV with free PPs).

Of the 350GB allocated to your LV (and your filesystem), 105GB is still unused.

HTH,
