A few minutes drive away is Lac St Croix where you can sail, windsurf or just picnic by the lakeside. Across the lake is the entrance to the Gorges du Verdon with spectacular views, famous walking routes and, for the brave, rockclimbing or bungee jumping. Kayaking and white water rafting is also available further through the canyon. Around 10km away are the medieval market towns of Aups and Riez where twice weekly markets are held with an abundance of locally produced food. The nearest airports, Marseilles or Nice, are a couple of hours drive away as are the beaches of St Tropez. The cultural centre of Aix en Provence is within 1 hours drive. The village has a small restaurant, normally open from May to October and can supply take-away pizzas. The village shop also provides a breakfast service of fresh coffee and croissants.

Places to visit.

For days out we would recommend the markets in Forcalquier and Aix en Provence which can be combined with visits to local places of interest. A day on the beach or celebrity spotting around the harbour at St Tropez is a must if you haven't visited there before. Marseilles has a range of markets, designer shops and wonderful sea food restaurants and you can take a ferry ride to the island of Chateau D'If. The Sunday antique market at Isle sur le Sorgues, near to Avignon, is popular with both serious and amateur collectors. Moustiers St Marie at the entrance to the Grand Canyon is also worth the 30 minute drive to visit.

Activities

For the energetic we leave tennis raquets and balls and a set of boules in the apartment for you to use. The swimming pool is cleaned daily by the resident caretaker, Denys, who is also responsible for the maintenance of the garden areas. The swimming pool, boule court and patio area have lighting for the evenings. For safety reasons children are only allowed in the pool area if supervised by an adult. Additional information on the local area and available activities can be found by entering 'Saint Laurent du Verdon' in any internet search engine.
