Accommodation Options in Provence

The winter months is the classic time to be thinking of the coming summer holiday season. In particular those who plan to rent a house, apartment or gîte are busily making inquiries or finalising their choice. And rightly so: not only is it fun during the dark months to think of spending time next to a swimming pool at the villa you have spotted on the internet or on a roof terrace in a village house, it is also a good idea to start searching for the perfect place while the choice is at its greatest.

Provence is a vast region and choosing somewhere to stay can be a little daunting in such a large area. With a huge offering of B&B guest accommodation or "Chambres d’hôtes," you're spoilt for choice, although you can narrow down your search if you're looking for something specific.

Hailed by many as the cultural centre of the South of France, Aix-en-Provence is packed full of interesting architecture, narrow streets, picturesque squares and plenty of museums and galleries.

Make your stay in Provence a memorable one. A stay in a French Chateau is a romantic dream for many of us, such is our fascination of historical decadence. To have a glimpse, however brief, into the lives of the nobility in times gone by is as compelling now as it ever has been.

The results of the 2017 Trip Advisor travellers choice awards have just been released and two Provencal hotels are in the top 5 French hotels.

From classic hotels to shabby chateau chic and modern and contemporary creations, Provence's capital city, Avignon, has plenty of choice for the discerning traveller. 

Imagine a spa day to recover after a long cycle up Mont Ventoux. Or a beauty treatment before exploring the vineyards of this glorious region. Maybe even a week-long detox programme to soak up the Provençal sun.

Looking for the perfect place to say "I do" is normally the first and most important part of your wedding plans, and the beautiful region of Provence has more than its fair share of stunning locations, unique settings and venues that will 'wow' your guests.
