Le Relais is an amazing place to stay. It is a converted farmhouse with lots of charm.
If you have a car, it's well worth it to stay here.(only 10 minutes from the town of Avignon).
The price we paid was very reasonable(about half the price of stayiing in town)
The restaurant had fantastic authentic home cooked food. The menu changed according to what was seasonally fresh. Everything is homemade and baked in house. It was so good we ate there both nights of our stay.
Very friendly and helpful hostess (Veronique). She helped plan our stay and gave us ideas of where to visit (extremely helpful). We visited the village of Les Baux . It's perched on the top of a mountain with a fantastic view. You can get lost for hours walking on the winding cobblestone streets. Here we purchased lots of typical French souvenirs such as soaps, herbs, olive oil, linens. The best selection and prices here.
We also visited a few neighbouring towns.
If you're looking to experience the true French culture of Provence, this is the place to stay.
A bientot!
