Provence In the Press


While you've all been out snipping lavender, drinking rosé, playing boules and being fabulous by the pool, you may have fallen a bit behind on your reading. So because I live to please you, I've gathered some recent articles you may have missed....


Top Photo: This four-bedroom restored farmhouse near Cavaillon is on the market for €1.6 million ($2.67 million). Half of the property's 4.7 acres are lavender fields. Get more info--and an update on the Provencal real estate market--in the New York Times hereCenter and Bottom Photos: Château de Sannes is a 17th-century estate, on 136 acres, for sale by Christie's. It has enchanting formal gardens, olive groves, a truffle plantation, wheat and lavender fields...and 80 acres of vineyards. For more info, click here.

  2. Gosh, I have so much reading to catch up on! Thanks for the list, but I wish you would please stop posting photos of those gorgeous Provençal properties for sale - they make me drool and it's downright embarrassing!
