The region
Bédoin is a starting point, not a final destination. From the house, everything is within reach — and Mary-Laëtitia shares her real addresses, not the ones you find in tourist guides.

The Velleron market — a farmers’ market, held in the evening, direct from producers. An experience in itself.
To explore
