  Spring the birth of the Earth!  
   

 

The shutters open to a new light, 

The markets buzz, colours (colors) explode!

A time to savour the rebirth of the world a feast of sensations!

This wonderful period of the year is often missed by many people due to everyone's fixation on taking Summer holidays. Yes quite often the kids school programme interferes with ones ability to travel but many people can make arrangements that allow for a break in this spectacular period of the year.

You can benefit from cheaper prices, you can leisurely get to see all the most interesting and famous sites (You can see a selection from our summer Points of Interest page). You can go to the beach or the lake without being in competition with all the other main summer visitors.

In early Spring you can even ski in Provence! You can also; walk, hike, trek, horse ride, discover, , bike, relax, write, create, paint, feast, BBQ in the garden  and much more......

Here at La Colle we can offer you access to all this and even if you do not want to do all these things you can still just sit and relax and watch natures splendid show.

Below are a collection of photo reportage of the area by world renowned travel photographer Chris Kapolka, travel photographer Ruud van Ruitenbeek and myself. Chris is a regular visitor to this area of Provence and is responsible for the Provence photo tours project and Ruud is a well seasoned travel writer and photographure.
