France - Scented Hills of the SouthProvenceA Provence Wander
To explore the quiet side of Provence, choose this leisurely walk which reveals sleepy villages, gently rolling hills coated with aromatic plants, tiny chapels, lavender fields, and medieval Forcalquier whose ancient citadel stands guard over these timeless landscapes. Distances are short, leaving you plenty of time to unwind at the three hotels, all of which offer a warm welcome and delicious Provençal cuisine. To the Pont du Gard
This is a gentle walk through the western corner of Provence, land of undulating limestone hills carpeted with aromatic plants that hide the Pont du Gard, one of the most spectacular legacies of Provence's Roman past. The hotels are superb and include an atmospheric hotel in the centre of Uzès and two beautifully appointed country hotels offering exceptional cuisine; the last one deservedly boasts a Michelin star. Available 1 April-5 July & 1 September-15 November 2008.
