Why Choose Provence Vacation Holiday Rentals?

Provence is a small yet very diverse region in southwest France which conjures up thoughts of lavender fields, breathtaking countryside, a rich cultural heritage and the famed Mediterranean Cote d'Azur. Bordered by Rhone to the west and the Italian border to the east, Provence stretches only 100 miles north to south from Lac de Serre-Poncon to a scattering of Mediterranean islets off Hyeres.

Because of the variety of landscapes in Provence you can experience skiing in the alpine peaks, water skiing on a lake, white water river rafting, winery tours, and relaxing by the sea during your Provence vacation.

The many hill top villages with cobbled streets and craft boutiques are beckoning you to visit while the Baroque heritage of the area is evident in the historic architecture so prevalent in the cities of Provence. Marseille, the oldest city in France boasts a number of famous monuments as well as being a port city. From here you can take a boat trip to the Chateau d'lf, a historic castle/prison built on a small island in the bay. Avignon is another old city surrounded by ancient medieval walls and home to the famous "Pont d'Avignon" the remnants of a medieval bridge across the Rhone.

The sunny Cote d'Azur, or French Riviera is famous for the beaches at Nice, Cannes and the chic resort of Saint Tropez, a popular destination for movie stars and TV personalities.

Provence vacation rentals and holiday homes include rooms in historic country homes, chateau and castle rentals (ideal for large groups, weddings or corporate retreats), modern vacation homes, apartments, holiday lets and seaside cottages.

Renting directly from an owner during your stay in Provence, will give you your own self catering home away from home to return to after a glorious day of sight seeing and fun in this sun-blessed region of France.
