Lazy on a Sunday morning.............


Yesterday was one of our busiest changeover days with guests leaving Le Chene, Les Cypres , Les Oliviers & Les Cerisiers. By 10 am everyone had gone and by 5 pm the new guests had arrived and were all settling in.
And so Sundays are a day we really relax and enjoy the peace and quiet of our beautiful village.



It is so nice nice to walk up our drive to the village, which is only 800 metres away.
 
Stopping on route to take in the view and hazy autumnal sunshine.




The leaves are dry and crispy, a clear sign of autumn approaching.



Next stop is the Boulangerie for 'our daily bread'! We are lucky to have one of the best Boulangeries in the area in our village.



Continuing our walk up to the Moulin where there are fabulous views towards the West.


Continuing up to the barrage, across and to the ramparts, where there are the remains of the old houses, shops and work shops dating to the 13th century.



from here there are wonderful views over the village and valley towards the Luberon Hills.



The remains of the outer walls to the former houses.


At the top the Chapelle Castrale, which dates to between 1672 and 1688.  It was tastefully restored in 2000.



The perfect place for man to reflect with his baguette!

Enjoy Your Sunday.
