LA TOUR DE FONTARAS

In a pretty little hamlet, character studio set in a stone cottage. Surrounded by olive trees and vineyards, with a view of the Ventoux, you're definitely in Drôme Provençale. The gîte is 1.5km from the village of Piegon and 2.5kms from Mirabel aux Baronnies. You'll find yourself between Nyons and Vaison-la-Romaine (10kms). The region is renowned for its olive oil (from Nyons) and wine production. The Parc naturel régional des Baronnies Provençales is nearby. It's an ideal destination for outdoor activities (hiking, climbing and via ferrata on the St Julien rock, paragliding, mountain biking). Mont Ventoux is just around the corner. The region's mild, sunny climate and half-Alpine, half-Provence landscapes are sure to win you over. Buis Les Baronnies and its famous Provencal market are 20kms away.
