The Gîtes of Ste Croix du Verdon, leisure, activities, farm, holidays, children

The month of June seems to be defined by the yellow setting created by the flowering of the broom flower, whilst in July the fields are an array of blue and gold, with the famed lavender fields in fill blossom and the wheat swaying in the gentle breeze.
In the months of July and August, you will be able to refresh yourselves throughout the day in the clear blue waters of the lake in which the sky reflects its own beautiful shades of blue.

The Farm

We make our very own goat-cheeses: dry, semi-dry, creamy, peppered, or with Herbes de Provence. We have a herd of 100 goats of the Saanen species. We sell directly all our produce. You can, if you wish, watch the goats being milked and the children always delight in feeding them with hay or grain.

Our two little donkeys, Manon and Martin will enchant your children if they wish to enjoy small rides around the farm.
