The Villages of the Luberon It is the Luberon's perched, hill-top villages that make the region known around the world. Each stakes its own claims to being the most charming, alluring or picturesque - and each is a proud member of the Most Beautiful Villages of France association. Les Gardies is located within 15 minutes of all of them: Menerbes where Peter Mayle wrote A Year in Provence is a mile away; Bonnieux and Lacoste facing off across the valley; imperious Gordes; the incredible ochre palette of Roussillon, and the lesser known gems like Goult - quieter but utterly charming. |
