Provence and the Côte d'Azur are made for exploring. Even if the view from your window of purple lavender, golden sands or a vibrant marketplace, backed by pretty hilltop villages, seems like the most perfect view it in the world, it’s not. There are other just as idyllic views just along the road, or around the bend in the coastline. And other sun-drenched terraces on which to enjoy a lazy lunch of local deliciousness. There’s no way to see ALL of Provence, but a good way to get the most out of your trip is to make friends with the locals and get their recommendations. And the best way to meet the locals is to stay in a B&B. The best B&Bs in Provence are often operated by families or couples, but always by people whose aim is to make sure their guests have an amazing time, so recommendations is what they do best.
