Lourmarin
Picturesque Lourmarin sits at the foot of the Luberon massif and dates back to the Neolithic era. The town itself is dominated by the Renaissance castle, which is built high on a rock and is now a classified historical monument. Listed among the most beautiful villages of France, Lourmarin is also home to novelist Peter Mayle, who wrote the best-seller A Year in Provence.
Roussillon
One of the prettiest villages of the Luberon massif, the town is situated in the heart of one of the biggest ochre deposits in the world. You will be able to see how the cliffs are composed of yellow, red and white sands, combined with sandstones and ores. This color scheme runs throughout the village, which features charming squares, vivid flower displays, and fascinating architecture.

Lavender is the iconic symbol of Provence, and visitors flock to Coustellet in the summertime to immerse themselves in the spectacular fragrance and color of its endless lavender fields.
