Hidden Villages of Provence
Discreet villages, lunches with vignerons and truffle hunts in season.
Beyond the tourist circuits of Gordes and Roussillon lies a Provence known only to locals: perched villages where the boulangerie has one loaf left by ten in the morning, olive mills pressing at dawn, family vineyards where lunch is served on the terrace under the plane trees.
Your day is guided by someone who lives here — a former Michelin sommelier, an art historian, a truffle producer — and every stop is arranged privately: a market breakfast, a lunch with a vigneron, a truffle hunt with dogs in season, a swim in a hidden gorge.
You return to your villa in time for aperitifs on the terrace, the light of Provence falling slowly across the lavender.
