Come Fly With Me : Provence

Hello there!! Come Fly with Me today to Provence, France! We are visiting a boutique hotel built using limestone surrounded by olive trees and lavender :) Sounds dreamy does it not?? This is a charming bed and breakfast with its own mill, house, chapel, sheepfold and wash house :)

The  Hameau des Baux  is situated in the heart of the in the heart of Alpilles in the southern part of France. This area is a vacation destination with many self-catering vacation homes in a quiet country setting.......this is Provence at its best!

For those of you who are art connoisseurs here is a bit of information about this area. The Alpilles were immortalized in art by Vincent van Gogh, who painted many images of the Alpilles' landscapes during his time in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence on the north side of the mountains.

I love the quaint old world charm of this hotel, and that feeling that you are stepping into some one's well loved home :)

What do you think??
