Things To Do
|
| At ‘Les Ecureuils’ you may simply wish to chill out by our pool set in pleasant grounds. But remember, the area surrounding you is full of a rich history. Many significant sites are within easy drive – at Avignon, Vaison La Romaine and Nyons. There is an abundance of local fetes and markets.
If you’re feeling particularly active, try a walk through the local countryside with its lavender fields and grapevines. We warmly welcome cyclists for whom bike hire can easily be arranged and for whom, if they are amongst the fittest, the challenge of the Mont Ventoux beckons! The Ardeche gorge, where day hire of canoes is popular, is also within easy drive.
If you’re a nature lover, you’ll be interested to know that we’re within 45 minutes of a vulture nesting colony, while rock climbing in the Dentelles de Monmiraille is not far away.
For gourmands, wine tasting in the local caves and a short trip to Chateau Neuf du Pape are recommended. The enclave is home to the largest truffle market in Europe, held each Saturday morning from mid-November to early April. Specialities at ‘Les Ecureuils’ are Truffle Weekends, Provencal Christmases and 3-hour Patisserie courses, all of which are easily arranged, provided reasonable notice is given. |
