La Sarrazine - B&B in Lorgues, Provence

Set in 3 acres of mature gardens, La Sarrazine is a spacious "maison de maitre" providing guests with a haven of peace and tranquillity in the heart of Provence.

There are three double bedrooms, all with en suite facilities. Guests have exclusive use of the large salon and adjoining sun terrace. A substantial breakfast is served al fresco in the summer months or in front of an open fire when there is a nip in the air.

The Sunday Times Travel Section recently made reference to La Sarrazine. The quote read:

"If you want the loveliest chambres d'hotes in the area, head for Lorgues and the British-run La Sarrazine"

There are a number of good restaurants within easy walking distance or a light supper can be made available by special arrangement. Cars may be parked securely within the grounds of the house.

    The pool is situated about 30 yards from the house, as is the tennis court.

    The garden provides numerous hideaways where visitors can relax and enjoy the sounds of nature - a fitting complement to the many attractions of this beautiful region of France.

    In order to preserve the peace and tranquillity of La Sarrazine, this is a no smoking establishment and we are not able to accommodate children under 12 years or pets.
