Antiques at the Art & You Fair in Isle sur la Sorgue
For 4 days over the Easter weekend, the Comtadine Venice welcomes more than 150 exhibitors, in addition to the 250 stores in town that are open all year round. All styles and eras are on offer: contemporary art and design, antiques, decorative objects, old books... Music, entertainment and various exhibitions are all part of the Fair. It's a really great time!
Take part in the all-new "Old Recipes" Festival at the Fair!
During the Foire de l'Isle, each partner restaurant offers a Provencal recipe for lunch and dinner. It's a great opportunity to discover local products and, more generally, Provençal gastronomy. You can even vote for the best recipe.
For more information on this event, visit their website here: les vieilles recettes
You can also get in touch with the L'Isle sur la Sorgue tourist office, which will be able to tell you what to do during the Fair in L'Isle and the surrounding area.

Visit the hilltop villages of the Luberon and discover the conservatory garden of dye plants at the Château de Lauris.
Spring is the ideal season for this: the best-known villages such as Gordes, Ménerbes or Roussillon and its ochre soils are not yet besieged by crowds... And what could be better than Spring for a stroll in the gardens? There are several to discover around here, but in the Luberon, you can't miss those at Château de Lauris. They boast a collection of over 250 species. It's a truly splendid place, so don't hesitate.

Burn calories the easy way on the Plat Pays des Sorgues bike routes!
In winter, we all tend to put on a bit of weight, don't we? So it's the perfect opportunity to combine a walk with a gentle workout.
Indeed, our region, the Pays des Sorgues, is rather flat, which makes walks easy and very pleasant. The only exception is our hilltop village, whose summit at the Plateau Campbeau can only be reached by bike. But there are two rewards once you're up there: firstly, a splendid view of Mont Ventoux and the surrounding area, and secondly, the chance to taste our wine at one of the estates in the Côtes du Rhône village gadagne appellation. As you'll be leaving by bike anyway... it would be a shame to miss out.

And while we're on the subject of bikes, here's a "little" bonus! Well... a rather "giant" bonus...

Sunset on Mont Ventoux, the Giant of Provence.
If you're a keen cyclist, you can make the ascent by bike, but in spring, the pass is reopened, so you can drive right up to it! From up there, you can see the whole region in a single glance, all the way to the Alps! In spring, the view is just fantastic. Before or after your ascent, you can take a stroll in the surrounding area. The Ventoux is the latest of our regional nature parks. Its discovery is full of promise... just like spring.
Whatever you choose to do on your trip here, you'll return to your everyday life feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world! L'Oréliane is the ideal place for a successful spring getaway in Provence! We look forward to welcoming you.
