Discover the region
In the Luberon, you will discover Provence’s authentic and breathtaking beauty...
Many artists and writers have chosen to settle in this region, drawn by its mild climate and and its exceptional light in every season.
You can stroll through the cobbled streets of Provencal villages, admire Renaissance facades, and then, after a long walk, rest in the cool shade of plane trees; you can contemplate the beauty of light on vineyards and olive groves, the lines of cypress trees, the colour of lavender or that of poppies…
You can visit Avignon and the Palace of the Popes, wander through Aix-en-Provence, “the City of a Thousand Fountains”, discover Lourmarin Castle, Les Baux-de-Provence or Senanque Abbey, nestled in a lavender-sprinkled valley…
You can marvel at the colours of the Ochre Trail or the Provencal Colorado, discover the wilderness trails accessible from the mas, or treat yourself to fresh products bought at local markets…
