WHY WE ARE SPECIAL
Personalised attention
The idea of going on holiday is always fun but sometimes planning can become overwhelming, I have lived in the South of France for over 40 years and my husband is a well-known French chef. We can help to address all your needs - day to day requirements and also, we are happy to arrange anything additional you may like to make your stay suited to your personal needs - services we have previously provided include organising chefs; traiteurs; masseurs, babysitters, vineyard tours so whatever your needs, please don’t hesitate to let me know so we can ensure your stay will be uniquely special.
We have a welcome house book with lots of very useful information and I can be contacted by WhatsApp from the moment you book right through your stay.
Provence is wonderful all year round, of course June, July and August are splendid but for those who aren’t too restricted to the peak season dates do also consider staying away from the madness - it’s simply quite divine. Easter and the fall are really wonderful.
