What a great place to live in Provence. The mild climate, gastronomy and sea air go hand in hand! It's not for nothing that Provence rhymes with vacation... Imagine Les-Baux-de-Provence - one of France's most beautiful villages - the impressive Pont du Gard, the Palais des papes in Avignon, and the many remains of Vaison-la-Romaine. Provence means sun, light and the colors so dear to Van Gogh and Cézanne, Pagnol's accent, the scents of lavender and rosemary, bouillabaisse and aïoli, rosé and red wines, and evenings stretched out to make the pleasure last!
But beware... the Giant of Provence is never far away, and it's during your stay that you'll be able to tackle the legendary Mont Ventoux, the Tour de France's mythical summit, which presents itself as a final test to crown your trip... unless a free day at its feet sounds like a better idea!
