· Perched villages and pre historic sites · Poppy fields, vineyards, and parasol pines · Explore "timeless" Provence, unchanged for centuries · Stay in the "Village in the Sky" · Dozens of châteaux, chapels and churches · Roman, Templar and mediaeval ruins This popular cycling holiday, now a firm Headwater favourite, follows a triangular route, exploring the heart of “secret” Provence. It is almost wholly unspoiled, combining rural tranquillity with beautiful landscapes, and it hardly seems to have changed in centuries. You’ll see perched villages, dozens of châteaux, and lovely churches, chapels and abbeys. The cycling is relaxed and mostly undemanding, and it’s not too hot, even in high summer, as the sun is softened by breezes coming in from the Mediterranean. And, everywhere, there’s the scent of the garrigue to remind you you’re in Provence. The base is our hotel at Draguignan. In between, you stay in Tourtour and St Antonin. All hotels on this holiday have swimming pools.
