Daydreaming of a Summer Getaway

With the final weeks of winter outstretched before us, it is easy to begin daydreaming of summer, or at least the thawing warmth of spring. There is no better time than now to make those hot weather months plans, so set your vacation wand in the direction of Provence. Sherry Page, of Culinary Getaways, has customized the ideal getaway involving one key element for relaxation and tasting pleasure: lavender.

In July, a small group of lucky culinary enthusiasts will be spoiled and pampered in their home away from home within the newly remodeled farmhouse in the Luberon area of Provence. Each day will begin with a Provencal-style breakfast to be followed by a well-appointed and carefully crafted daily agenda to include tours of wine caves, lavender farms and distilleries, cheese artisans, museums, quaint town shopping, private dining with local notable chefs, and a tour of the L'Occitane factory. With only a few spaces still available, now is the time to plan your summer vacation.
