Peaceful house in « Provence »

Our house in situated in a small city called "Manosque". We are in a countryside place very calm. Manosque is sunny every days during the Summer but not too hot. The sunlight is amazing and lot of painters like Paul Cézanne appreciated these lights.

We live in a house with one floor. At the ground floor there is a kitchen with an big living room, one WC and an access to our garage where you could find washing facilities.
On the floor : 3 bedrooms ( 2 double bed + a single one), a bathroom and a WC.
We have a garden with a terrace, a small swimming pool for kids and we have a barbeque / grill :-)

At ten minutes of Manosque by car there is the famous Valensole plateau and the lavender fields all around. In this place you will find also honey producer to test several food products.
Keep going in the national park of the Verdon you will find the marvelous Gorges du Verdon with the biggest Europe canyon. You will discover "Moustiers St Marie" village and its earthenware know-how.
You could enjoy the Nature (small walks or hiking) in Luberon park and Esparron lake to refresh during hot Summer (35 minutes by car).
In Manosque there is also "Les Vannades" which is lake equipped for have a good time with family (lake, pic nic area, games for young children and treetop adventure course).

On Saturday in Manosque you can visit the historic center and buy some regional products to the local market (food and clothes) located on 3 places where you will find small producers of local foods and organic foods too.

Only in Manosque you could visit the company l’Occitane, a very famous Cosmetics brand which was created 40 years ago in Manosque. If you want to discover the factory you can book the visit tour and finish with the factory shop to bring back souvenirs of Provence.

If you prefer discover big cities you can also visit Aix en Provence or Marseille ( 35 minutes / 60 minutes by highway). You can also spend a day to enjoy the beaches and swim in the Mediterranean sea (1 hour).
