Blooming lovely!

Cherries blooming throughout the Luberon valley. Just delightful. Spring is well and truly here.

Cassis in the sunshine

The first of the tourist boats leaves the harbour in bright Spring sunshine.



And the jaunty little fishing boats are just waiting their turn.

Inspired?

I know we've been moaning about the weather just recently but how about the other side of the coin? We were down on the coast a few days ago and the sun shone and Provence put it's best face on.

Brave little Alice certainly thought the sea was warm enough but the waves were a bit high!


Early spring break in Provence?

March business post #2


Another big house with some bargains. Please have a look at our Special Offers page.


La Chapelle du Bruoux sleeps 17 with a huge pool and tennis court another great location for a larger group.





Back to Business!


A quick note to tell you that we've been able to "sharpen our pencil" and reduce the prices for Maison Rouge. Now a bargain high season price of £2,435 per week for this large house sleeping 8. It has it's own private pool and with sensational views, is this your holiday destination this summer?

Spring??

Hmmm
Thought Spring had arrived with the first sighting of almond blossom bursting forth - now its almond blossom in the snow! Just when we thought it was time to dust down the BBQ!

A great day out

What better way to spend a February Saturday than truffle hunting and a great truffle lunch near Monieux below the slopes of Mont Ventoux with a group of friends. Lovely views in the distance of the snow covered mountain slopes.
Arriving at the farmhouse we gear up with our walking boots then off down the steeply sloping hillside with the farmer and his truffle dog.
Digging madly wherever he scented the truffles, the dog called Velo quickly unearthed some great speciments.
Then back to the farmhouse for a lunch to remember.
