A Picnic in Provence
Amidst the lavender fields and olive groves of the Luberon, a countryside picnic is a celebration of life’s simple pleasures – and we know all the best spots. Each detail is designed to elevate a timeless tradition with the style and authenticity of Gordes.
From hushed forests to valley views
Our teams have selected the most scenic picnic spots in the Luberon for you to explore: the heights of the Fontaine-de-Vaucluse, the Forêt des Cèdres in Bonnieux, or the lavender fields near the Abbaye de Sénanque.
Whether nestled in the shade of centuries-old trees or overlooking rolling hills, each location is an invitation to reconnect with Provence’s raw beauty. These carefully chosen backdrops transform your picnic into a moment of pure serenity.
The taste of Provence
Choose your gourmet basket from four options – Sporty, Fresh & Flavourful, Discovery, or Travel – each includes seasonal recipes and regional flavours, with vegetarian and vegan alternatives available on request. Thoughtfully composed, each basket highlights the richness of local specialties and culinary savoir-faire. It’s a sensorial journey tailored to every preference.
Getting there
To make your journey fun and easy, electric bikes are available, equipped to carry your picnic baskets for the perfect picnic in Provence, or hop into an iconic Citroën 2CV and we will happily escort you to your picnic spot. Alternatively, you are welcome to use your own vehicle. Your picnic will be ready for collection at a time chosen by you.
Just remember to place your picnic order at least 72 hours in advance.
