La Jauberte vacation rental: the gardens

When you arrive the first impression is the wide-ranging view, quickly followed by the sweet scent of the Provencal garden: wild thyme, lavender, rosemary and santolina combine to tell you this is the Provence of your daydreams.

There are 18 acres of gardens, fields and woods to explore around La Jauberte, including a lavender field, olive trees and 50 different roses, mostly fragrant climbers. Some guests never leave the garden during their stay.

There are spots for reading, for painting, for picnics, and for tiring the children out. There are also some very comfortable sunbeds round the pool.

 
Hand-hewn, dry stone walls - works of art in themselves - break up the garden into terraces, for roaming and contemplating the hills and the light.

Guests have their own exclusive part of the garden, with various dining spots according to the time of day. There is also a sheltered courtyard with herb garden. You are encouraged to cut your own flowers for bouquets.
The swimming pool is solar-heated, to extend the swimming season into spring and autumn. Guests have first use of the pool - if the owners are in residence they may take a swim when guests are out exploring.
All of the rental income the owners receive from La Jauberte is donated to UNICEF, the agency for children.
