Wanderlust and Where to Stay in the South
Many of our readers ask us for advice on where to stay in the region. In response, we have added this dedicated "Where to Stay" newsletter to our regular mailings, which we plan to publish 2-3 times per year.
The travel restrictions in the last 12+ months are fueling our desire to pack our bags. Whether you plan a trip for this year or 2022, it's never too early to start looking. We understand that holiday planning is not for the faint of heart, and finding suitable accommodation is often at the top of the list. Spending your precious vacation time with family or friends requires a balance between activity, sightseeing, and downtime that suits everyone's tastes.
There are a few things to keep in mind when you begin your search. Generally, the summer months are considered high season, which reflects in both pricing and availability. Plan early or avoid holiday periods such as Easter, the public holidays in May (Labour Day, Victory Day, Ascension, Pentecost), and the school holidays at the end of October around Toussaint (All Saints). Most apartment, home, and villa rentals require a minimum of one week's stay. B&Bs often have shorter stay options.
Please feel free to send any comments on the format, places you have stayed or other ideas. We look forward to hearing from you at perfectlyprovenceinfo@gmail.com.
Enjoy the journey,
